As a happy owner of 3 MF lenses by Samyang I am pleased to see that they are getting more, serious offers out. Hope for more mounts and more interesting focal lengths, more primes!
Before people...

The availability only to mft- mount might be a slight nuisance. However adapting to Sony E, Nikon Z is no problem. Probably the same for Canon R.

Looks like a further improvement of an already...

Beautiful article! If video and weight are priorities, the Lumix is a clear winner. After updates the G9 is close to the GH5 in video capabilities!
Budget is important in this article - as for many...

How do these museums compare? Does Sony include the Minolta roots?

It's a characteristic of the body, always has been. Back in the 1954 when parallax correction was an outstanding feature nobody would demand more. With the possible exception of Robert Capa

There is an ongoing joke that Jordan uses an old Pentax K01 for some time. It certainly can't cope with several stops underexposure as a new ISO invariant sensor model could!
I personally like the...

It's amazing how many new 35mm lenses are available for mirrorless cameras! I particularly like the way how Cosina cares for the classical f2.0 versions.

How do you know my uncle! It depends on eyesight and reactions, not everybody will be as successful as you.

I actually use vintage glass mainly for the looks. And happily use modern primes to...

Two Leitz Canada R f2.0 lenses, 35 & 90 mm from the 1970ies are my top favorites. Ten years ago I used them on the Lumix G2. The 35mm became more interesting with the Sony A7. Handling is better on...

There is a strange fascination about certain classical focal lengths!

What I wonder, the 20mm guy mentions some influences, none of them going particularly for the super- wide side.

Methinks...

Love this ongoing conversation. LensBeginners introduced the very specific meaning in mountaineering language. And cited several sources which use the verb frequently in just his sense - which is...

What do you suspect?
For me it feels like they are delivering quality products these days. They're brought to market when they're ready. In theory E-mount should be easier than Fuji as Sony shares...

Who decides which technical / conversational words might be used? To summit, according to mounteneering usage, implies people come back in one piece with ongoing brain activity - methinks. That...

Well said! 2010 saw a crazy boom of the industry. By now products became even better, manufacturers think a lot about pricing and cost-cutting. Things are going to be good

My experience with landscape shots goes in line with what you're saying. It's common textbook wisdom - use wide for landscape. Only my eye prefers to pick out some detail. My most successful ...

Why do you think that? I had a Samyang 12mm for ages and love the experience of shooting it. Got some flaws, just like most FF super wides. As it happens I recently used both my Sigma 14 & 24mm ...

I myself have mixed feelings about supervise. Actually I currently do a lot of 35mm shots

Why wider than 17mm ff-equivalent? Examples are photos and films of extreme sports. As the feel of space is extended, the speed of a person or object is accelerated. If it's about space only - ...

Roger often points out that people who know the strengths & weeknesses of their lens can get better photos. Field curvature, distortion, flare eg can all spoil your shot or used to its creative...
