Review: Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

Posted on October 31, 2020October 31, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Canon’s full-frame mirrorless system launched with one camera, the EOS R, and four lenses. After two years, the workhorse standard zoom released in that initial batch, the RF 24-105mm f/4L IS, is still one of the more desirable lenses for the system. As of this writing, it’s also the only really affordable L series lens…

Review: Canon EOS R6

Posted on October 26, 2020December 23, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Before getting into my Canon EOS R6 review, let’s take a quick look at Canon’s mirrorless history. Canon’s mirrorless camera development started slowly, with the EF-M system beginning in 2012, but targeting casual shooters. That system has been moderately successful, but Canon has put minimal effort into expanding the system, and 8 years after the…

Review: Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD

Posted on July 23, 2020July 24, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Tamron has been in the lens business for a long time, having established itself as a major third-party player for SLR systems going back decades. Despite that pedigree, Tamron had barely dipped its toes in the waters of mirrorless for many years before finally jumping in to the Sony E mount system in earnest two…

First Impressions: Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD

Posted on May 16, 2020May 17, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Tamron has made some waves with their lineup of compact, and lightweight, yet high quality zoom lenses for Sony E-mount, offering excellent performance in a small package at a price point significantly lower than the native Sony options.  The final piece of this puzzle is the brand new 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD.  This has…

Review: Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN Art

Posted on March 16, 2020April 14, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Sigma has slowly morphed over the past several decades from a budget lens maker into one of the premier lens makers in the industry. Their Art series lenses have continually raised the bar for high quality, yet reasonably priced lenses, and their first few mirrorless-specific entries have also been outstanding. Today I’m looking at one…

Review: Sony A7R IV

Posted on March 7, 2020October 12, 2020 by Jordan Steele

Sixty-One Megapixels.  That’s the headline that accompanies almost every mention of Sony’s newest full-frame mirrorless camera, the A7R IV.  The A7R series has always been Sony’s flagship body for landscape and high image quality work, and the fourth generation bumps the resolution of the sensor from 42.7 megapixels to a whopping 60.1, which somehow gets…

Abstracts with Dry Ice

Posted on February 13, 2020 by Jordan Steele

This is going to be a quick post, but I wanted to share a little experiment I did this evening.  My wife had ordered some Jeni’s ice cream in the mail, which ships in a cooler with a block of dry ice to keep it cold during transport, and so I did what anyone would…

Posted on December 29, 2019December 30, 2019 by Jordan Steele

Every year I like to take a look back at the photos I’ve taken and make a selection of my favorite photos of the year.  They may not be my very best photos, but they are ones that personally resonate with me.  As with any creative pursuit, photography has ebbs and flows of creativity and…
