It was with great excitement that I saw Tamron’s announcement in February at the WPPI Conference of an all-new lens designed from the ground up for Sony FE. The new Tamron 28-75mm f Di III RXD (A036) provides something that…
The very first Sony FE lens that I reviewed was not a Sony; it was a Zeiss. When Zeiss approached me about reviewing the Zeiss Batis APO Sonnar 135mm f lens, I actually had no way of doing so as…
The very first Sony FE lens that I reviewed was the, ironically, the newest lens in the Batis line for Sony FE (full frame E-mount). When Zeiss approached me about reviewing the Zeiss Batis APO Sonnar 135mm f lens, I…
