Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 VXD (A058) Review

The excitement was palpable from the moment that Tamron first introduced the idea of their newest lens, a lens that busts genres and gives Tamron another “world’s first”.  That lens is the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD (internally called…

Canon RF 14-35mm F4L IS USM Review

Back in 2014 I reviewed the then new Canon EF 16-35mm F4L IS USM and found it a serious breakthrough for Canon wide angle zooms.  Both the EF 17-40mm F4L and EF 16-35mm F2.8L II had serious shortcomings, and the…

Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Review

I entered the world of DSLRs back with Canon T1i, which came with a kit 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 IS lens.  I hated that lens.  It was clunky in operation, had a very slow and limiting maximum aperture range, and was uber-cheap…

Godox V860III Camera Flash Review and Gallery

Sony FE 50mm F1.2 G Master Review

  The Internet is a repository of the world’s information, but it is also a place where a lot of the world’s wrong information rests.  In this industry it is pretty common for someone influential to say something untrue and…

NiSi 15mm F4 ASPH Review

NiSi has historically been a company that has made filters for other people’s lenses, and a search of their products shows a lot of filters with very high reviews.  But at some point they clearly decided that their optical glass…

Sigma 90mm F2.8 DG DN (iSeries) Review

Over the past two years Sigma has easily been the most prolific lens developer on Sony FE and Leica L.  We went from no full frame options from Sigma on Sony’s mirrorless platform two years ago to some 25 lenses…
