  • Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L IS vs. Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

    Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L IS vs. Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS

    First off: this is not a review. This is a simple test under controlled conditions to evaluate image quality of these two compact L-series telephotos. A full review of the RF 70-200mm f/4L IS can be found here, while my review of the RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS can be found here. In November, Canon expanded…

  • Review: Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM

    Review: Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM

    When Canon launched the RF mount mirrorless line of cameras and lenses, they released the system with an initial slate of four lenses. In a somewhat bold move, three of the lenses were core upper-end L-series professional lenses, including the RF 28-70mm f/2L, the RF 24-105mm f/4L, and this lens: the RF 50mm f/1.2L. Instead…

    Review: Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM

    Canon’s 70-200mm lenses have always been one of the core lenses in their camera systems, and have consistently been excellent. With the new mirrorless RF system, Canon has changed things up with regards to the construction of their RF 70-200mm f/2.8L, moving from a constant length internal zooming lens to a much more compact extending…

    Review: Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM

    When Canon began the EOS R system, they started with three L series lenses and one affordable prime lens: the versatile 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS. As they have fleshed out the system, they’ve added a few other affordable lenses, but if you wanted a faster lens for portraiture, you were somewhat limited to the exceedingly…

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

    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

    Review: Canon EOS R6

    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…

    Mini-Review: Canon Powershot G7 X Mark II

    Today I’m taking a quick look at a high-end compact camera. I recently went on vacation with my family to Orlando, Florida, to spend some time taking in the parks at Disney World and Universal Studios. Since this was a family vacation, and not a photographic journey, I didn’t want to carry anything even remotely…
