Canon has FINALLY released a full frame mirrorless camera – the Canon EOS R. They have also launched a new lens mount – the RF. While many people advocated for Canon to retain the EF mount, early development for the platform shows that the RF mount may be the most exciting component thus far, with [&helli [Read more...]
Sony chose the WPPI Conference in February, 2018 to drop the bombshell that we now know as the Sony a73 (ILCE-7M3). I call it a bombshell in that while many camera makers hold back a lot of key features on their “entry-level” full frame cameras (that typically fall around this $2000 USD price point), it […] [Read more...]

Followers of my work know that I have long been a Canon only shooter, but recently Zeiss asked me to review a new Batis lens, which required me to borrow a Sony a7R II body from my friends at B&H Photo. I used the Sony body over the course of about six weeks, and […] [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...]
