January 16, 2025 TTArtisan AF 35mm F1.8 II Review

It was just a year ago that TTArtisan released the first version of this lens and I covered it in my reviews. It’s rare for a company to do such a quick refresh of a newly released lens, but clearly TTArtisan is in a rush to get things right and felt like there were a […] [Read more...]

January 13, 2025 Pergear 100mm F2.8 2x Macro Gallery

A good macro lens opens up a whole new world of photographic possibilities, but it also represents a very niche area of photography. Some people are born macro photographers; it’s their favorite type of photography. Others don’t mind dabbling in it, but aren’t so invested that they are interested in spending a [Read more...]

January 8, 2025 Tamron RF 11-20mm F2.8 RXD Gallery

2024 has been the year where Canon has finally, grudgingly, let a third party lens makers creep in to their RF mount, though with one huge caveat. There are still (absolutely!) no full frame lenses from third parties allowed, but Canon is opening up the RF/RF-S mount to APS-C lenses. Earlier this year I reviewed […] [Read more...]

January 6, 2025 Yaber K3 Smart Projector Review

Last year I reviewed the popular Yaber K2S smart projector.  It was great in a lot of ways, but now Yaber is back with something even better. They’ve released the next generation of their projector, the K3, and the operative word here is MORE.  More smart integration, more brightness, more volume, and a bit more […] [Read more...]

January 3, 2025 Sirui Aurora vs Sigma DN 85mm F1.4

Sirui’s new Aurora series of full frame lenses has kicked off with the well received Aurora 85mm F1.4. I was interested in doing some direct comparisons with existing options.  The most logical comparison is the Samyang AF 85mm F1.4 Series II lens, but since I don’t have that one on hand, I’m doing a comparison […] [Read more...]

December 30, 2024 NEEWER HB80C 80W RGBWW Mini COB LED Video Light Review

Over the past year I’ve looked at a several mini RGB lights with self contained batteries from companies like Smallrig and Zhiyun. I’ve liked both of those lights, but Neewer’s entry into the mini-RGB light arena takes a slightly different tack, exchanging a bit of the smallness for more battery life (thus long [Read more...]
