My Favorite Photos of 2018

Posted on March 23, 2019March 23, 2019 by Jordan Steele

We’re three months into 2019, and I usually post my Favorite Photos of the Year in late December or early January, but I missed it this year.  Still, I’ve done a collection of my favorite photos of the year each year since I founded this site in 2012, and I didn’t want to miss is…

Review: Voigtländer 21mm f/3.5 Color-Skopar (Sony E-mount)

Posted on March 4, 2019August 29, 2019 by Jordan Steele

I mentioned it when I reviewed Voigtländer’s excellent 40mm f/1.2:  Voigtländer has been killing it of late.  Cosina has managed to take a brand that had been dormant for a while, and resurrect it with a wide variety of unique manual focus lenses for both Leica M mount and now Sony E-Mount.  Today’s reviewed lens,…

The Best Lenses – In My Experience

Posted on February 25, 2019February 14, 2021 by Jordan Steele

Last updated 2/14/21 What lens is best? I get asked this all the time, and there’s never really a right answer. “Best for what?” is what I usually reply, as the answer will depend on what the photographer wants to accomplish, what their budget is and what is important to them. Everyone will have a…

Review: Sony FE 12-24mm f/4 G

Posted on February 9, 2019February 25, 2019 by Jordan Steele

Today I’m looking at Sony’s extreme wide-angle zoom, the 12-24mm f/4 G. As photography has progressed, more and more exotic lens designs have become possible.  Decades ago, a 24mm lens was considered extremely wide and 20mm was an almost unheard of ultra-wide angle.  Now, the standard ultra wide zoom starts at 16mm, and more exotic…

Review: Canon EOS R

Posted on December 22, 2018December 22, 2018 by Jordan Steele

This has been a big year for the mirrorless industry, as the two big boys, Canon and Nikon have both thrown themselves into the Full-Frame mirrorless world to give Sony some competition.  The EOS R is Canon’s first entry into this space, and it comes with their new RF mirrorless mount.  Canon made some very…

Some Site Changes are Incoming

Posted on December 14, 2018December 17, 2018 by Jordan Steele

This is just a heads up on what’s going on with the site at the moment.   Over the next few days to a week, you’ll likely see some visual changes to the site.  Admiring Light has basically looked the same since I launched the site in 2012, and frankly, I think it’s gotten a bit…

Review: Sigma 135mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art (Sony E Mount)

Posted on November 11, 2018February 12, 2021 by Jordan Steele

Sigma has recently jumped into the full-frame E-Mount system by creating new native E-Mount versions of many of their very well received Art series lenses. Today I’m looking at one of those well regarded lenses, the Sigma 135mm f/1.8 DG Art for Sony E-Mount. The Sigma 135mm f/1.8 is a monster of a lens, with…

Review: Fujifilm XF10

Posted on October 29, 2018October 29, 2018 by Jordan Steele

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…
