Can't wait for all the vertical anamorphic videos. :p

Of course there will be lots of cross comparison with the cheap Chinese stuff. Some of iwhich is very good stuff too. But spec sheet claims aside, it may not be in the same league. For starters,...

Lenses from all manufacturers have been getting porkier - something I anticipated years ago when it became apparent that 135 format digital was basically replacing medium format film for most...

Sigma is just making lenses impractically large now. I'm sure performance will be fine, but few will want to carry it outside the studio.

I didn't say they suck.   Many 4/3rds and micro 4/3rds lenses are quite nice, there's a reason why there was a bit of a difference between 4/3rds and m4/3rds.  In many ways the original 4/3rds was ...

In modern practice this isn’t true.  Contemporary edge to edge sharpness; autofocus performance; and digital sensors’ acceptance of indecent light angles, together, all pretty much guarantee ...

... the D850 neatly proves the axiom. Build something people want, that checks off a lot of boxes, price it fairly, and they'll buy it. So, even though it's a very different segment, with different ...

I have often said to myself, and my wife, that such a lens would be worth the sale of a motorcycle. She basically agrees, since she would rather I have photographic toys than motor-sports toys... ...

May I suggest less rebroadcasting of external content and more original features. Good luck for 2018!

Your first serious portrait lens should be a modern stabilized 70-200 f/2.8. You might never need another lens in the overlapping range... at 135mm there isn't much difference between the...

This site is getting just a little click-bait-y. But, it's just good fun, and sites need revenue to support niceties like paid staff. Can I change my vote to Instax ?

Canon’s market position and brand strength are well earned. They make products that work well, and support a broad range of image making tools for every kind of photographic need. Their market...

I have both these lenses.  Honestly, though, for me AF is more valuable, and anytime you're shooting handheld, for most people it will lead to more keepers. That said, if Nikon had a body with ...

I don’t own any Canon gear, but they are far and away the dominant market player and nothing in the referenced article suggests otherwise. Canon sells mirrorless as well, more than Sony in fact. ...

Canon is too busy handily outselling everyone else combined, including Sony, by about 4:1...

His creative flair with the saturation slider is matched only by his outlandish post processing of eyeballs.  I'm sure he loves his children, but unless they're human vessels for glow in the dark ...

It's a good trick.  I often create a little extra negative space for single portraits against a seamless backdrop.  Makes me feel like I have one of those large luxurious studios :)

Oops. I was being cute and forgot one word which would have changed my meaning here. Try a “digitally” expanded backdrop.  You’ve got the perfect scenario for it: a simple continuous backdrop. You ...

I would consider trying an expanded background on all the shots in the series, just to see how the image feels with a little more room to move around the frame.  Try her centered, high, low, and ...

Excellent usability/ergos. Excellent dynamic range. Excellent auto-focus tracking. Class leading flash metering. Extensive high quality lens catalogue. Durability, reliability. All day battery ...
