I’ve been getting a LOT of requests to cover the Sony FE 24mm F1.4 G Master lens since its release. The idea of having a premium wide aperture of F1.4 in a wide focal length (24mm) in a reasonably compact…
Fujinon XF 16-80mm F4 OIS Review
Fuji shooters have had a binary choice between two standard zooms – the XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 OIS (my review here) and the XF 16-55mm F2.8 (my review here). One offered image stabilization, the other offered a weather-sealed build and larger…

A couple of months ago I had a look at the Tamron 24mm F2.8 OSD M1:2 along with the 35mm F2.8 OSD M1:2 lenses. These lenses were part of a trio of highly similar prime lenses from Tamron designed specifically…

Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DN ART Review
There are few lenses more important to photography than the 24-70mm F2.8 standard zoom, which covers everything from landscape focal lengths to one of the favored focal lengths for portrait photography. Most photographers could do at least 80% of their…
Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS Review
I personally welcomed the announcement of the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS lens for the simple reason that it created a way to get extended reach for Sony shooters without breaking the bank. Tamron helped create a huge market…

Samyang AF 18mm F2.8 Review (Sony FE)
Korean lens maker Samyang (also sold as Rokinon in some markets) has had a bifurcated approach to lens development on Sony’s FE (full frame mirrorless platform). They have released (at this point) a traditional trinity of wide aperture F1.4 primes…
Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3G OSS Image Gallery
I personally welcomed the announcement of the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS lens. Tamron helped create a huge market for the “affordable super-telephoto” class of lenses when it released the 150-600mm F5-6.3 VC USD back at the beginning of…

Samyang AF 18mm F2.8 Image Gallery
The Samyang AF 18mm F2.8 is a welcome addition to Samyang’s “Tiny Series” of lenses. It’s wonderfully compact (60mm long) and weighs only 145g, and yet covers a prime focal length for landscapes, astrophotography, and other wide angle work with…
Tamron 35mm F2.8 OSD M1:2 Image Gallery
Tamron has started to jump into Sony FE with both feet. It’s first two zoom lenses (17-28mm F2.8 RXD and 28-75mm F2.8 RXD) have been very well received, and now Tamron is following up with not only the announced 70-180mm…
Sony FE 35mm F1.8 Review
Sony’s FE Sonnar 55mm F1.8 (my review here) and FE 85mm F1.8 lenses (my review here) have been some of their most popular lenses on the mirrorless platform. It’s a great formula: very compact, well built, great autofocus, and excellent…

Fujinon XF 90mm F2 LM WR Review
The Fujifilm platform has been the best place to be to get excellent APS-C lenses of all shapes and sizes. Fuji’s strategy has been to forego the popular 35mm (full frame) sensor and putting all their eggs into the APS-C…
