• The State of the Mirrorless Camera Industry – May 2013

    The State of the Mirrorless Camera Industry – May 2013

    When I first started this site about 16 months ago, I did a two-part piece examining a little of the history of digital photography and a trending towards mirrorless cameras. Since then, a lot has changed in a relatively short period of time, though the major players are still the same. More and more people…

  • Quick Test – Olympus 60mm f/2.8 Macro vs Fuji 60mm f/2.4 Macro

    Last night I decided to do a quick test between the Olympus 60mm f/2.8 Macro on the OM-D and the Fuji 60mm f/2.4 Macro on the Fuji X-E1.  Both are the same focal length (but give a little different fields of view due to the different sensor sizes), similar in aperture and both are macro…

  • Butterflies!

    I’m working on a rather long in-depth post at the moment, but it’s going to take me a day or two to finish it up.  In the meantime, here are some butterflies, taken at the Franklin Park Conservatory, here in Columbus.  Click to enlarge:

  • Review: Fujifilm X-E1

    Review: Fujifilm X-E1

    Fuji is a relative newcomer to the mirrorless game, and they’ve taken a different strategy than the other players in this market. Fuji has eschewed the entire low-end market and decided to focus on prosumer and professional users exclusively. Last year, they introduced the X-Pro 1, a relatively large body with a hybrid optical and…

  • Chicago Harbor

    Chicago Harbor

    I was in Chicago this week for business, and had a little (though not a lot) of time to go out and take a few shots.  I haven’t processed everything from the trip, but I thought I’d show two from the harbors along Lake Michigan.  The first is the Chicago Harbor Lighthouse, which was built…

  • A Quick Walk Around Ohio State

    I stopped by the Ohio State campus on the way home from work today and took about a 45 minute walk down to the Horseshoe, and back, and took some shots with the Fuji 14mm f/2.8.  What an incredible lens this is.  Extremely sharp, well built…a joy to shoot with.  Stay tuned for a bunch…
