Sony a6600 Image Gallery
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…

Sony FE 50mm F2.5 G Image Gallery
Lost in the midst of the high profile releases of the 35mm F1.4 G Master (my review here), the Sony FE 14mm F1.8 (my review here), and the yet untested (by me!) Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM is a trio…
Sony FE 40mm F2.5 G Image Gallery
Lost in the midst of the high profile releases of the 35mm F1.4 G Master (my review here), the Sony FE 14mm F1.8 (my review here), and the yet untested (by me!) Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM is a trio…
Sony FE 24mm F2.8 G Image Gallery
Lost in the midst of the high profile releases of the 35mm F1.4 G Master (my review here), the Sony FE 14mm F1.8 (my review here), and the yet untested (by me!) Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM is a trio…
Tamron 11-20mm F2.8 Di III-A RXD Image Gallery
2021 has been the year that Tamron has adjusted their aim to include a very important (and oft-overlooked) space – Sony APS-C E-mount. There are a LOT of Sony APS-C mirrorless shooters out there, and despite the large audience, there…
Sony FE 12-24mm F2.8 G Master Image Gallery
Sony in a very good place in terms of their lens catalogue on full frame mirrorless. They were the first of the major brands to transition to mirrorless, and they’ve had an extra camera generation or two to finetune their…
TTArtisan 21mm F1.5 ASPH Review
The TTArtisan 21mm F1.5 ASPH is the second lens I’ve reviewed from Chinese lensmaker TTArtisan. The first was an 11mm F2.8 Fisheye lens, which is hardly a conventional lens. That lens was good enough, however, that I was open to…
TTArtisan 21mm F1.5 ASPH Photo Gallery
The TTArtisan 21mm F1.5 ASPH is the second lens I’ve reviewed from Chinese lensmaker TTArtisan. The first was an 11mm F2.8 Fisheye lens, which is hardly a conventional lens. That lens was good enough, however, that I was open to…
Tamron 150-500mm F5-6.7 VC VXD Image Gallery
The Sony FE catalog of lenses is one of the most robust ever. Sony’s bet on developing a more open source platform and welcoming third party development has really paid off, as at most focal lengths photographers have a plethora…
Samyang AF 12mm F2 Image Gallery
I had mixed feelings about some of Samyang’s (also sold under the Rokinon brand) early full frame lenses, but I really loved their compact APS-C primes whose design language was in many ways a precursor to their full frame “Tiny…
Sony 14mm F1.8 G Master Image Gallery
Sony is on a tear with their recent lens designs. In the past couple of years we have seen one exceptional lens after another, with standouts including the 24mm F1.4 G Master (perhaps the best 24mm lenses thus far – my…
Sony FE 35mm F1.4 G Master Image Gallery
The classic 35mm focal length is one that, until recently, was slightly underrepresented on Sony. For years the sole “professional” option was the Sony Zeiss Distagon 35mm F1.4, a lens with a very mixed reputation that seems to be due…
Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG DN ART Gallery
It’s hard to believe that just a couple of years ago Sigma had no lenses for Sony full frame E-mount (FE). They started with a huge drop of “adopted” DSLR lenses that gave them a basic lineup built on their…
Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 Image Gallery
It’s always intriguing to me when two very similar lenses come to the market at the same time. I was just wrapping up my coverage of the Viltrox AF 24mm F1.8 (my review here) when I got wind that Samyang…
Sony Alpha 1 Image Gallery
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,…
Viltrox AF 24mm F1.8 STM Image Gallery
The first Viltrox lens I tested was a wide angle lens for Sony FE (full frame mirrorless). I did that review only two years ago, but it is astounding how much has changed during that time. In a very short…
Irix 45mm F1.4 Dragonfly Image Gallery
Some new lens makers have really saturated the market with their product since arriving on the scene, but Swiss/Korean lensmaker Irix has been far more selective in their releases, with the Irix 45mm F1.4 Dragonfly being only the fourth lens…
Sigma FP-L Mirrorless Camera Image Gallery
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…
