Tamron released their new 28-78mm F2.8 RXD lens for Sony full frame mirrorless (FE) last year to great fanfare, as it provided a legitimate alternative to the very large and very expensive Sony 24-70mm F2.8 G Master lens. The 28-75 RXD went on to be the best selling lens of the year in its first […] [Read more...]
When Tamron announced the 17-35mm F2.8-4 OSD last year, I was initially nonplussed. I was surprised to see them releasing a lens without VC (which has become a mainstay on Tamron lenses), a lens with a less sophisticated autofocus system, and delivering such a lens in the Canon EF/Nikon F mount where they already have […] [Read more...]
One of my main projects for 2019 was a plan to pit all the current autofocus 85mm options on the full frame Sony E-mount platform head to head. I’ve done something similar for 50mm options (and, to a lesser extent, 35mm options) on Sony. I’ve done a major 85mm shootout on the Canon platform and […] [Read more...]
Last year I reviewed a clever rear filter solution for certain lenses that don’t take traditional filters from the company Aurora Aperture. But Aurora Aperture has cranked up the creativity level and designed a new filter solution that, when you see it, you think, “Of course! Why didn’t someone thin [Read more...]
I had a number of requests to review the Fujinon XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 OIS lens after I reviewed the XF 16-55mm F2.8 a few months ago, as many people feel like the XF 18-55mm is one of the best of its kind. Certainly Fuji has taken a slightly different route with this “kit lens”, giving […] [Read more...]

All year long I’ve had the goal of doing a major 85mm showdown on the Sony platform, as I’ve done something similar for 50mm options (and, to a lesser extent, 35mm options) on Sony. I’ve done a major 85mm shootout on the Canon platform and found it personally helpful and enjoyable, and this will be [&hell [Read more...]
The Fuji X-T30 is Fujifilm’s fourth generation “bargain” mirrorless camera. It has inherited a lot of trickle-down goodness from the X-T3 that I reviewed last year, including an improved sensor, better autofocus, 4K video, and more. It has a lot packed into the compact little body that’s nearl [Read more...]
