Brightin Star 50mm F0.95 Review
Over the past few years, it has become increasingly common for what I call “Boutique Third Party” brands (small lens startups) to deliver some really interesting budget lenses. Many of the early lenses were designed for the smaller APS-C sensor,…

Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 Di III VXD G2 (A063) Review
Tamron’s first full frame lens for Sony mirrorless, the Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 RXD was an unqualified success. I lauded it in my review, as, although the lens was fairly plain in terms of build and features, it had excellent autofocus,…

Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 VXD (A058) Review
The excitement was palpable from the moment that Tamron first introduced the idea of their newest lens, a lens that busts genres and gives Tamron another “world’s first”. That lens is the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD (internally called…

Canon RF 14-35mm F4L IS USM Review
Back in 2014 I reviewed the then new Canon EF 16-35mm F4L IS USM and found it a serious breakthrough for Canon wide angle zooms. Both the EF 17-40mm F4L and EF 16-35mm F2.8L II had serious shortcomings, and the…

Tamron 18-300mm F3.5-6.3 VC VXD (B061) Review
The mirrorless revolution largely started with APS-C (and smaller) sensors, but over the past four years the primary focus in the industry has largely shifted to full frame. The majority of camera and lens development has been in that space…

Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Review
I entered the world of DSLRs back with Canon T1i, which came with a kit 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 IS lens. I hated that lens. It was clunky in operation, had a very slow and limiting maximum aperture range, and was uber-cheap…

NiSi 15mm F4 ASPH Review
NiSi has historically been a company that has made filters for other people’s lenses, and a search of their products shows a lot of filters with very high reviews. But at some point they clearly decided that their optical glass…
