Best Memory Cards Canon R | Real Benchmarks

  • Alik Griffin
  • April 19, 2024
  • 5 comments
The Canon EOS R is no slouch when it comes to data output. With 8fps continuous burst shooting speeds the Canon R can produce a RAW image data stream of  more than 250Mbps and it doesn't stop there. Video specs are very data heavy with 4k video having an output of 480Mbps and 1080p video have 180Mbps. To get the full benefit of the amazing data output, it may be a good idea to buy the fastest memory card for the Canon EOS R, but the card you buy will depend on how you plan on using the camera. Use this guide to find the best memory card for your Canon EOS R.

The Truth | Nikon and Canon’s 17% Sales Drop 2019

  • Alik Griffin
  • October 7, 2024
  • 26 comments
Canon and Nikon sales have dropped about 17% year-over-year. A lot of journalist ( dirty dirty smear merchants ) have been cherry picking statistics to push the doom and gloom narrative to make these camera companies look like they are in trouble, with the usual intent to make Sony look like it's the new market leader and to make Canon and Nikon look like they are run by a bunch of idiots. It's a fun narrative to push and people lap it up.  In this article, I want to try to shed some light on what is actually happening, what Canon and Nikon are doing and what we will expect to see moving forward.

Meike 35mm f1.4 | First Look – A Little Gem

  • Alik Griffin
  • April 22, 2024
  • 13 comments
Meike has managed to keep the image quality under control for such a fast and small lens and this has surprised me. There are no blaring issues or any deal breakers with this lens. It has some nice rendering with some decent looking bokeh. No crazy drop in sharpness along the corners or edges like with the Kamlan 50mm f1.1, and no serious issues with chromatic aberrations or drop in sharpness wide open like the 7Artisans 35mm f1.2. Build quality is also on par with the other Meike lenses except the aperture ring is a little too loose and it is always escaping its set aperture from accidental handling

Best Memory Cards Sony A6400 | Real Benchmarks

The Sony A6400 does not support UHS-II technology so it’s better to save your money on UHS-I cards, but to use all the 4k video features, you will need U3 memory cards with a minimum size of 64GB.

The Beauty Of Slower Lenses | Nikon Z 50mm f1.8 S

  • Alik Griffin
  • September 25, 2019
  • 22 comments
Nikon is slowly winning me over at becoming my favorite full frame camera system. I still like the EOS R, I think it's a more capable camera in terms of versatility, mainly because of the 30MP sensor and the flippy screen that is so nice for landscape work, but I actually enjoy using the Nikon Z6 more. The main thing that's really got me excited about the Nikon system is the (somewhat) affordable high quality f1.8 AF glass, which is what you're seeing with all the samples in this post.

Sony A6400 Review – One Of My Favorite APS-C Cameras

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 5, 2026
  • 10 comments
The Sony A6400 is a small lightweight APS-C camera designed for photographers and videographers looking to maximize versatility and image quality without compromising performance. Built like a tank, the A6400 is one of the best autofocusing cameras out there with some overall really nice specs. 11fps of continuous RAW shooting, 4k 100mbps video and a Tilting screen for selfies or vlogging. Because Sony omitted IBIS from the A6400, the camera ends up being lighter compared to the A6500 while having a battery that lasts about a full day.
