The Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM replaces a lens that is probably the most popular “L” series ever, but it has scarcely gotten any attention and has received relatively few reviews. Why? Photographer Dustin Abbott believes he knows why after spending some time with the lens. Get his thoughts on [Read more...]
One of my most popular articles that I’ve ever written was entitled, “Why I chose a Canon 6D over a 5D Mark III”. The original Canon 6D was a bit of a unicorn: on paper it wasn’t very impressive, with a weak AF system and some obvious limitations imposed by Canon to create separation from […] [Read more...]
Last year Canon introduced a novel concept that might have been lost on a lot of Canon shooters due to it being implemented on a lens for Canon’s mirrorless EOS M system – the EF-M 28mm f/3.5 Macro IS STM that I reviewed here. That concept was a macro lens with a built-in LED ring […] [Read more...]
Canon has just released a brand new lens for it’s EF-S (APS-C crop sensor) cameras – the new Canon EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS. This lens offers a different approach to macro than the existing EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM lens. It has a wider focal length, Image Stabilization, an STM focus motor, and a unique [&helli [Read more...]

The operation of the lens is excellent, and I’m extremely impressed once again by the behavior of the Nano USM autofocus technology. I can [Read more...]
New EF-M mount lenses have been fairly few and fair between, but 2016 saw two very solid lenses released: the EF-M 28mm f/3.5 Macro IS STM lens (my review here) and this lens, the Canon EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM. The 18-150 STM is both similar and different to past EF-M zooms. It is […] [Read more...]
Canon’s venture into mirrorless has had mixed success. The EOS M cameras have largely been critical flops despite having some unique strengths largely due to arriving with limited feature sets when compared to the competition. Canon has also really lagged in the key areas of autofocus, burst rate, and buffer size, reducing the [Read more...]
