    Review: Fujifilm XF10

    Fujifilm’s X Series has become a fairly nice success for the company, with the interchangeable lens camera system continuing to grow and improve. However, Fujifilm’s digital renaissance really began with the X100, a relatively compact prime-lens compact with an APS-C sensor. That camera’s legacy lives on with the X100F, but Fujifilm continues to experiment with…

    Review: Think Tank Retrospective 30 v2.0

    As photographic companies are concerned, Think Tank is fairly young. The company was founded in 2005 and quickly rose to be one of the premier camera bag manufacturers. Taking on established companies like LowePro and Domke, they created products that have generally been well received. They recently revised their quite popular Retrospective line of bags,…

  • A Trip to Guatemala

    A Trip to Guatemala

    I recently returned from a trip to Guatemala, where my brother-in-law was getting married and having a destination wedding.  We brought the whole family along and spent 5 days in Antigua Guatemala, a historic city with wonderful architecture, loads of ruins from the earthquakes that rocked the area over the centuries, and friendly people.  As…

    Thoughts on the new Nikon Z6 and Z7

    A Fourth Major Mirrorless System Nikon is the talk of the town today, with the Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z7 mirrorless full-frame bodies and a few lenses announced. The new Z Mount mirrorless system throws its hat in the ring as the fourth major mirrorless system. “But Jordan,” you say, “Canon has the EF-M system!”…

    Review: Voigtländer 40mm f/1.2 Nokton

    Voigtländer has been steadily releasing a rather full complement of lenses for the Sony E-Mount, from their ultra-wide 10mm and 12mm offerings, to the classic rendering 35mm f/1.4 to extremely high-end macro lenses like the 65mm f/2 and the new 110mm f/2.5.  Today we’re looking at one of their newer designs, the Voigtländer 40mm f/1.2…

    Review: Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD (Sony E-Mount)

    As the full-frame Sony E-Mount system matures, the available lens selection has continued to grow year after year. While Sony and Zeiss have created a wide variety of lenses from 12mm through 400mm, third-party lens makers have yet to fully embrace the system, save perhaps for Voigtlander, which has released a fair few lenses for…

  • Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XF 80mm f/2.8 Macro R LM OIS WR

    Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XF 80mm f/2.8 Macro R LM OIS WR

    Fujifilm has developed an exceptionally robust lens lineup over the last several years, but the one area that had been lacking was in a true 1:1 macro lens.  Fuji remedies this with their 80mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro, a lens with a slightly longer field of view than many macros, 1:1 magnification, an…
