The Fuji X-T30 is Fujifilm’s fourth generation “bargain” mirrorless camera. It has inherited a lot of trickle-down goodness from the X-T3 that I reviewed last year, including an improved sensor, better autofocus, 4K video, and more. It has a lot…
When Tamron first announced the Tamron 35-150mm F2.8-4 VC OSD, I was first nonplussed (odd focal range), then disappointed that it was not for Sony, but then intrigued as I thought about the potential of such a lens for shooting…
Sigma has been on somewhat of a roll as of late as they continue to refine their process of lens development in the ART series. Early on I found the ART series somewhat frustrating, as there was frequently a blend…

The first Kamlan lens I ever tested was the predecessor of this lens. I reviewed it in 2017, and came away with the impression that while there were things I really liked (nice build and beautiful bokeh), the lens was…
The Canon R system (full frame mirrorless) launched with four lenses in the new RF mount and has subsequently had a fifth announced. Those lenses have an average MSRP in the USA of $1919, so this is most definitely NOT…
The Canon RF 35mm F1.8 Macro IS STM is the the least expensive Canon RF-mount lens at the moment, so it makes a logical pairing with the Canon EOS RP – lowest point of entry into a mirrorless full frame…
The Canon EOS RP is Canon’s second entry in the new R series of mirrorless cameras from Canada. This second full-frame mirrorless camera comes with a slightly reduced spec list and a price tag roughly $1000 less – making it…

The original idea behind mirrorless cameras was they would be smaller, lighter alternatives to DSLRs due to the differences in technology while providing similar levels of optical performance. As I’ve noted in many subsequent reviews this idea is often lost,…
Sony surprised some of us with the announcement of the Sony a6400 APS-C mirrorless camera. Many of us expected Sony to continue moving upscale with an a6500 replacement, but instead it appears that Sony is going flesh out their APS-C…
Sigma has once again managed to do for mirrorless what they seemingly cannot do with DSLR lenses – make an optically excellent, COMPACT lens. The Sigma DN 56mm F1.4 C is the 6th (by my count) of Sigma’s DN line…

A few months back I reviewed the newest Fujinon lens in the Fuji “trinity” of fast, F2.8 zoom lenses. That lens (the XF 8-16mm F2.8 WR) makes up the wide end of the spectrum while the XF 50-140mm F2.8 OS…

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. The Sony a6400 also inherits some…
