There is an ongoing debate as to whether Fujifilm’s choice to focus on APS-C is the right one. I’ve engaged in that debate myself, but I think that lenses like the Fujinon XF 23mm F2 R WR represent the most compelling argument for their choice. Their F2 (and F2.8 options like the 16mm) are compact, [&hell [Read more...]
I only began to review Sony products in 2017, and my focus has primarily been upon the newer cameras and lenses released since that point, so I barely missed the Sony FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS, which was released just a few months before I started to cover Sony. The 90G Macro (as we’ll […] [Read more...]

The arrival of the Sigma 85mm F1.4 in late 2016 left me very conflicted, which is reflected in my review of that lens. On one hand, there was no question that the lens was very strong optically (one of the best to date), though there were a few quirks that I felt necessary to point […] [Read more...]

One of the unique strengths of the Fuji ecosystem is the wide range of lenses of varying quality and price points specifically designed around the APS-C sensor (in this case a 1.5x crop factor compared to 35mm/full frame). Fuji’s APS-C-centric focus has allowed them to both maximize the potential of an APS-C sensor and a [Read more...]
