Canon has just released a brand new lens for it’s EF-S (APS-C crop sensor) cameras – the new Canon EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS. This lens offers a different approach to macro than the existing EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM lens. It has a wider focal length, Image Stabilization, an STM focus motor, and a unique […]
First impressions matter. My first two impressions when opening the box and pulling out Sigma’s newest lens – the 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary – were 1) the lens was smaller than I anticipated (not a lot bigger than a lens like Canon’s new 70-300 IS II and similar in profile) and 2) the […]
The Carl Zeiss company recently announced another high end prime lens in the Milvus series – the Zeiss Milvus Distagon T* 35mm f/1.4. The Milvus 35mm f/1.4 is a completely new optical formula and covers one of the the most important focal lengths in any photographer’s bag. The Milvus 35 is big, heavy, expensive…and beautiful inside […]

Such is the photography world in 2017! That bit of irony aside, however, there’s […]
Lost in the midst of the higher profile ART series announcements was the announcement of a lens that makes a whole lot more sense for many photographers. The Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 OS Contemporary helps to fill an important gap – a more affordable, compact way to get a significant amount of reach. The Canon 100-400L […]
In Praise of Excellence Don’t get me wrong; I do love to post-process images. It is that second dimension of modern photography where you can take a good photo and make it great. About four years ago I wrote a series of articles for Alien Skin Exposure’s blog on how to take an image from […]
Putting on a good pair of headphones is a revelation for a music lover. The degree of sonic immersion possible allows music to come alive in a way like nothing short of a very high end audiophile system. The EP750 are the third set of headphones that I’ve reviewed from the audio company August, […]
