Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN ART Gallery
I’ve been in the review business for about 13 years now, and over that time I’ve heard the requests from my audience for someone to produce a 24-105mm F2.8 full frame zoom. The 24-105mm F4 zoom has been ubiquitous, but always the F2.8 counterpart had a more constrained 24-70mm zoom range. That has lead to […] [Read more...]

Tamron 28-300mm F4-7.1 VC VXD Gallery
Tamron has long been a company invested in designing all-in-one/superzoom lenses. My very first Tamron lens was their 18-270mm PZD lens, which I owned and used for a few years starting in 2010. That was an APS-C lens, but Tamron later branched into full frame all-in-one lenses like the 28-300mm PZD lens that I reviewed [… [Read more...]

Sony FE 85mm F1.4 GM II Gallery
People have been waiting for the Mark II version of the Sony 85mm G Master lens for a long time. There has been a lot of conjecture over whether or not it will be an 85mm F1.2 lens to match the 50mm F1.2 GM that I reviewed here and to compete with similar lenses from […] [Read more...]

Hollyland Lark M2 Compact Wireless Microphone System Review
The Hollyland Lark M2 is perhaps the most compact wireless microphone system that I’ve ever seen, and yet it holds up the most important things like audio quality and range. It’s not a perfect system, but I’ve liked it well enough that it has been out the 6-7 other wireless audio systems I own as […] [Read more...]

Viltrox AF 56mm F1.7 E-Mount Gallery
The Viltrox AF 56mm F1.7 is not an unknown commidity to me. I reviewed in on Fuji X-mount earlier this year, which is, frankly, the most challenging platform that I review lenses on for two reasons: 1) Fuji’s 40MP APS-C sensor is extremely demanding due to having the highest resolution currently available on APS-C and [&he [Read more...]
