    Review: Sony a6400

    With Sony’s recent emphasis on full-frame cameras and lenses, many users of Sony’s original APS-C E-mount cameras have begun to feel a bit left out. While Sony still has a long way to go with regards to native APS-C lens selection, the APS-C camera line got another injection of technology with the brand-new a6400.  While…

  • Review: Sony FE 12-24mm f/4 G

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

    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

    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…

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

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

    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

    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: Voigtländer 40mm f/1.2 Nokton

    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)

    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: Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM (Canon EF Mount) + MC-11

    Review: Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM (Canon EF Mount) + MC-11

    I don’t generally do reviews of Canon EF lenses, as I’ve been shooting mirrorless exclusively for the past 7 years.  However, with the availability of EF to E-mount adapters, and the Sony system still being a little thin in some areas, there are Canon mount lenses that may potentially be great alternatives for use on…
