Nikon Z5II full-frame camera launched in India at a price of Rs 1,49,995
The Z5II — as the cameras have become nowadays — is a mix of old but well-proven technologies and some new tricks. The camera uses a 24.5-megapixel full-frame BSI CMOS sensor. But the key enhancements are in the performance of the camera as it now comes with Expeed 7, which is a major improvement over the Expeed 6. Every Nikon camera that has so far used Expeed 7 — such as Nikon Z8, Nikon Z9, Nikon Z6 III — has offered excellent performance. The new CPU has allowed Nikon to bring a much better auto-focus to the Z5II. The company says that it has a 3.5x faster autofocus system, which means it can now allow photographers to capture and track even fast-moving subjects such as wildlife in a better way.advertisementAt the same time, Nikon has also bolstered the video-specific features in the Z5II to make it more appealing to influencers and content creators. The camera can record footage in 4K UHD video at 60 frames and it supports 12-bit N-RAW recording and FullHD 120 frames for high-quality slow-motion effects. In addition, the camera offers N-Log, HLG, and SDR recording modes that offer flexibility to content creators.The arrival of the Nikon Z5II means that Nikon now has a full lineup of professional and hobbyist cameras using the Expeed 7 CPU. It also now has a lineup that uses a similar auto-focus system — from entry-level full-frame that is the Nikon Z5II to the top-end Z9. While the price of the camera starts at close to Rs 1.5 lakh, it is expected that in market it would be available with some key discounts and offers the way full-frame cameras mostly are.Must Watch

DDA's land licensing model bags ₹10,000 cr deal with Fleur Hotels
The project is expected to generate approximately Rs 10,000 crore over a 55-year period Press Trust of India New Delhi The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has awarded the first project under its new Special License Property (SLP) initiative to Fleur Hotels, a subsidiary of Lemon Tree Hotels, officials said on Saturday. The project is expected to generate approximately Rs 10,000 crore over a 55-year period. "DDA had invited bids through a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued on May 2, 2025, for a 2-acre land parcel in Nehru Place earmarked for a five-star hotel. The bidding process, conducted on August 13, saw Fleur Hotels secure the project with an annual license fee offer of Rs 27.19 crore, about 50 per cent higher than the reserve price of Rs 18 crore," DDA said in a statement. This marks a major shift in DDA's land disposal policy. Moving away from the traditional freehold and perpetual lease models, the SLP initiative allows long-term development on an annual license basis. Reforms set into motion last year by Lt Governor VK Saxena, have yielded spectacular results in terms of revenue generation for the DDA even while facilitating the much needed developments in the capital, the statement added. According to officials, the Rs 10,000-crore revenue estimate includes annual fee escalations over the 55-year license term. "This new model is expected to significantly boost DDA's income, while facilitating key infrastructure development across hospitality, healthcare, logistics, and retail sectors," the statement added. The project awarded to Fleur Hotels will see the development of "Aurika" at Nehru Place, one of Delhi's largest luxury hotels with over 500 rooms. Lemon Tree Hotels, which operates more than 110 properties in over 75 cities, plans to bring its upscale brand experience to the Capital through this venture.
