The previously rumored Zeiss Milvus 25mm f/1.4 (1.4/25) full frame DSLR lens for Nikon F-mount is now officially announced:
Additional coverage after the break:
As already reported, today Adobe announced a new cloud-based Lightroom CC and rebranded the old Lightroom 7 to Lightroom Classic. The bad news is that D850 support for the old Lightroom 6 version will be added on October 26th:
What’s the Difference Between Lightroom and Lightroom Classic?
Going forward, the product you’ve known as Lightroom will be rebranded “Lightroom Classic CC”. Why change? We have introduced a new photography service that will now be called “Lightroom CC”. It is designed to be a cloud-based ecosystem of apps that are deeply integrated and work together seamlessly across desktop, mobile, and web. Lightroom Classic CC is designed for desktop-based (file/folder) digital photography workflows. It’s a well-established workflow solution that is distinct and separate from our new cloud-native service. By separating the two products, we’re allowing Lightroom Classic to focus on the strengths of a file/folder based workflow that many of you enjoy today, while Lightroom CC addresses the cloud/mobile-oriented workflow.
Nikon D850 support in Lightroom 6
Lightroom 6 is the last standalone version of Lightroom that can be purchased outside of a Creative Cloud membership. There will not be a Lightroom 7 perpetual offering. Lightroom 6 will remain for sale for an undetermined amount of time, but will no longer be updated with camera support or bug fixes after the end of 2017. Lightroom 6.13 with support for the Nikon D850 will be released on October 26, 2017.
Additional info is available here. Videos on the new Lightroom version can be found here. The current Adobe CC plan rates can be found here. You can get a free Lightroom trial on this page. The last three versions of Lightroom can be downloaded here (see also this link for more information). Adobe’s website has also a dedicated page for Lightroom CC.
ACR 10 was also released with support for several new lenses for Nikon F-mount:
As I already reported, the next Nikon D850 shipment was expected to hit US stores in mid-October. B&H and Adorama were closed for the past two weeks, but other stores have already started shipping D850 cameras to existing pre-orders. Several people from Europe also reported D850 deliveries in the past few days.
The Sony 128GB XQD G memory cards are finally back in stock (they were sold out since the D850 was announced).
Tomorrow Adobe is rumored to announce a new version of Lightroom with support for the Nikon D850 (not sure if it will be an update to the current version or the already rumored new release).

Several websites, including dpreview, published a “Nikon official D850 lens recommendation list” which has nothing to do with Nikon’s official recommendation. It seems that the list was made up based on nothing but thin air.
After some digging and with the help of a few [NR] readers, I actually found an official list of 40 recommended lenses for the D850 (click for lens price and availability):
