Sony’s most recent camera seems to be specifically targeted at the Vlogging and Selfie crowd with a revised physical design of the screen that allows it to tilt up into a forward facing position.

I have a serious soft spot for my vintage glass (I’ve got about 12 vintage lenses that I still use adapted modern cameras). Some of my favorites are classics from Japanese-made Takumars, Soviet-made Helios lenses, and German-made Zeiss (and their derivatives).

I’ve spent time with a lot of different lights since becoming a reviewer. They typically fall into one of two categories. They are either A) portable flashes/strobes for photography or B) fixed or continuous lights for videography. Some of the more recent continuous lights have had the option to be run of [Read more...]
Irix made their mark with a bevy of well-received wide angle lenses, including a super-wide-angle 11mm F4 lens along with a 15mm F2.4 that I reviewed last year. Their most recent lens release has set their sites in a different direction – a telephoto macro lens. The Irix 150mm F2.8 1:1 Macro is a very [… [Read more...]
