Canon RF 24-105mm F2.8L IS Z Review
The promise of Canon’s new RF mount is that it was going to release new and novel lens designs not possible on EF mount. I would say that in many ways that is a promise that was overstated, but every…

Canon RF 45mm F1.2 STM Review
The prime complaint about the Canon RF ecosystem has been that it was closed to third party development when the system launched in 2018…and here in 2026 that remains the case. Canon has allowed some development for APS-C on RF,…
Sony α1 II (ILCE-1M2) Camera Review
Every brand has a flagship, and, for Sony, that is their α1 series. I reviewed the original α1 back in 2021, and went into that review mostly thinking that it was just way too expensive ($6500 USD, or more like…

Viltrox LAB 35mm F1.2 Z-Mount Review
It has been a long eight months since I released my review of the Viltrox AF 35mm F1.2 LAB FE in April of 2025, leaving a lot of people wondering when and even if the Nikon Z-mount version was coming.…
