Canon EOS R3 Review
The Canon EOS R5 (my review here) and EOS R6 (my review here) cameras showed that Canon was serious about the full frame mirrorless space. The former remains one of the best jack-of-all-trades cameras ever made, possibly bested only by the extremely expensive Sony Alpha 1 (my review here). The EOS R6 was a very [&hel [Read more...]

Sony a6600 Review
I was a bit surprised in early 2019 when Sony announced and released the Sony a6400 APS-C mirrorless camera. Many of us expected Sony to continue moving upscale with an a6500 replacement, but I concluded in my review of the a6400 that it was more of an upgrade to the Sony a6300. I surmised (correctly) […] [Read more...]

Sony Alpha 1 (ILCE-1) Review
What do you get when you combine the massive resolution of the Sony a7RIV (almost!), the blazing speed of the Sony a9II (and more!), and all the video capabilities of the Sony a7SIII? The answer is the Sony Alpha 1, aka the Sony A1, or, more technically, the Sony ILCE-1. The Alpha 1 is definitely […] [Read more...]

Sigma FP-L Mirrorless Camera Review
Most of us know Sigma as a lensmaker and nothing more, but Sigma has actually been developing somewhat quirky cameras for some time. Many of those were built around Sigma’s own SA mount or with a fixed lens and tended to be crop sensor cameras (APS-C or APS-H). They frequently had unique shapes well outside [&h [Read more...]

FUJIFILM GFX-100 Medium Format Camera Review
All of my time spent with Fuji products to this point has been on the APS-C end of the spectrum, but I’ve had a lot of requests to dip my toes into the more extreme end of their business, which is their GFX lineup of medium format products. Fuji has been unique in their marketing […] [Read more...]

FUJIFILM X-S10 Camera Review
Fujifilm has long carved out their own unique path in the competitive mirrorless camera market. They’ve elected to focus on APS-C on one end and Medium Format at the other extreme, skipping the very popular full frame space altogether. Many of their APS-C cameras fall on the premium end of the spectrum in terms [Read more...]

Canon EOS R6 Review
While it was the Canon EOS R5 (my review here) that grabbed my attention personally (it is very close to being a perfect camera for my uses), it was the Canon EOS R6 that was even more interesting to others due to the R5 being overkill for many photographers in both resolution and price. Canon’s […] [Read more...]

Sony a7C Review
The size of mirrorless cameras has trended ever larger as the early focus on (mostly) smaller sensors and compact lenses has shifted to high resolution full frame sensors and professional grade lenses designed to match (or exceed) what was available for DSLRs in the past. Some of us don’t mind this trend, as we are [ [Read more...]
