Sony a7RV (ILCE-7RM5) Review

The Sony a7RIII was the camera that really made me believe in Sony. It took a deeply flawed camera (though with some great strengths) in the a7RII and turned it into the most complete camera on the market at the…

Sigma 60-600mm F4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sport Review

It’s hard to believe that just a few short years ago the primary complaint on the Sony platform was a lack of telephoto options. Sony was the first to address the problem with the 200-600G (my review here), but then…

Fuji took an important step in this past year by opening up their platform to third party development, and we’ve seen a wide variety of third party lenses from Tamron, Sigma, Samyang, Viltrox, and more announced and released for the…

Viltrox AF 75mm F1.2 Review

It was inevitable. Viltrox has proven to be an aggressive new player on the lens market that isn’t afraid to take some risks, and they have been steadily stepping up their game in terms of build and autofocus. They started…

Samyang (Rokinon) AF 135mm F1.8 Review

I’ve noted that I’ve really enjoyed testing recent Samyang lenses because of their great mix of performance and price, but I don’t think that I’ve anticipated any Samyang lens as much as the new Samyang AF 135mm F1.8. I was…
TTArtisan 35mm F0.95 Review and Gallery

TTArtisan has continued to surprise me with lenses that in some way exceed my expectations. Whether it was a surprisingly sharp full frame fisheye lens, a shockingly competent macro lens that cost right over $100, or tiny little prime lenses…
