March 23, 2023 Powerness Hiker U500 Power Station and SolarX S120 Panel Review

I started reviewing portable power stations a few years ago because of the many crossover applications for photography like powering lights on location, charging cameras and other equipment, and even providing power for camping treks off-grid.  I’ve now reviewed product from 5 different companies and have gained a gro [Read more...]

March 16, 2023 Sony FE 50mm F1.4 G Master Review

When I did my review of the Sony FE 50mm F1.2 G Master (an exceptional lens!), I concluded that Sony had gone the F1.2 route to help incentivize owners of the already good Sony Zeiss Planar 50mm F1.4 (my review here) to upgrade. I theorized that an F1.4 lens might not have gotten people’s attention […] [Read more...]

March 2, 2023 Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II Image Gallery

I just finished up reviewing the Sony 24-70mm F2.8 GM II (my review here).  I looked at both of these new MK II GM lenses together because A) these two types of lenses will often be paired together by professional photographers (portrait or wedding photographers) and B)  there are a lot of shared design philosophies [& [Read more...]

February 27, 2023 Growatt Infinity 1500 Portable Power Station and UPS Review

I’ve reviewed portable power stations and solar panels from 4 different companies at this point, but the Growatt Infinity 1500 portable power station and UPS system is my favorite thus far if you are looking for serious backup performance.  I break down the various strengths in my video review below, but here are a fe [Read more...]

February 20, 2023 Sony 24-70mm F2.8 GM II (SEL2470GM2) Review

The Sony 24-70mm F2.8 G Master was one of the earliest G Master lenses that I reviewed (in summer of 2018), as I was fairly new to the Sony space.  While I found a lot of positives with the lens, I also thought it too large and somewhat overhyped by the marketing materials.  Sony must […] [Read more...]

February 7, 2023 Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG DN ART Review (A2023)

It’s the one I’ve been waiting for!  Even since Sigma released their  85mm F1.4 DN in 2020 (my review here) I’ve been harassing my Sigma contact about a 50mm DN lens.  Well, it’s here, and the Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG DN ART is sure to be a hit.  Why do I say that?  While Sony [… [Read more...]
