I’ve just started a brand new partnership with FUJIFilm where I will start to spend some time reviewing some of their products, and I’ve started with the newest and brightest – their X-T3 Flagship camera body and the monster XF…

Canon has FINALLY released a full frame mirrorless camera – the Canon EOS R. They have also launched a new lens mount – the RF. While many people advocated for Canon to retain the EF mount, early development for the…
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,…
Sigma has faced a bit of an uphill battle with the FE versions of their ART series if the anecdotal feedback I have received is a valid indicator of the market. Size matters, and the ART series lenses were already…
When the idea of mirrorless cameras was first floated, one of the main advantages that was touted was the ability to have an optically excellent camera system in a smaller, lighter configuration when compared to a typical DSLR/lens combination. That…
Sigma 24mm F1.4 ART FE Image Gallery The Sigma 24mm f DG HSM | ART was, I believe, the only ART series lens that I missed reviewing when it was initially released. In the past few months Sigma has been…

Wide angle lenses and filters are a bit of a nightmare. One of the main challenges many photographers have to consider is that using anything but the bare lens involves expense, bulk, and inconvenience. Lenses with less focal lengths and…
Many of the lenses that I review tend to be quite expensive (photography is an expensive hobby for amateurs, and some lenses are priced either for working professionals like myself or those with a lot of disposable income). Others of…
Sony chose the WPPI Conference in February, 2018 to drop the bombshell that we now know as the Sony a73 (ILCE-7M3). I call it a bombshell in that while many camera makers hold back a lot of key features on…
Towards the end of 2017 I spent time with my first Kamlan lens – the Kamlan 50mm f compact prime lens. There were things that I praised, including a very nice build quality (all metal and glass) and nice rendering…
The Kamlan 28mm f is a brand new lens from the Chinese lens maker SainSonic. I’ve been privileged to have my hands on a prerelease copy of the Kamlan 1.4 for a while and can now share some photos and…
The Sony a73 is the camera that everyone is talking about! Sony has swung for the fences with this camera, packing a lot of features into a (barely) sub-$2000 body. Where Canon has chosen to intentionally cripple cameras like the…
A few years ago, my job was simpler. As a Canon reviewer, there were basically only four companies that made most all of the lenses: Canon, Sigma, Tamron, and Zeiss. Three Japanese companies and a German company who produces their…
The release of the truly impressive new Sony a7R3 camera (and now the Sony a73!) has caught a lot of our attention. The a7R2 also caught my attention because of a great spec list and an impressive sensor, but when…
