While the Sony FE 100-400mm G Master lens is an excellent lens (my review here), it is also very expensive and thus out of the range […] [Read more...]
Photography is expensive, so a lot of the gear that I end up reviewing is often outside the budget of many people. Fortunately there has been a rise in the past 3-4 years of what I classify as “boutique third party brands”.
