A professional video editor, and photographer with a Bachelors in Film studies from UCSD. Based in Los Angeles, I have created commercials, trailers, and other video content for various clients and platforms since 2005. I also love to write about my passions and share my insights on my blog.
I finally bit the bullet and got the Fujifilm X-T2 battery grip. I've been putting it off because I just wasn't sure if I would really take advantage of all the extra features it offered - long story short, I bought it and it's awesome.
There is a magical lens by Fujifilm that I feel just doesn't get enough credit or praise and I wanted to dedicate a post to it and the insane bokeh it's capable of producing.
I don't do a lot of reviews on cameras I don't own, but recently I had the Canon SL2 for a weekend and was so impressed by the way it shot and felt that I had to take it out for a day of shooting.
Here are my initial impressions.

If you're looking to get started collecting old vintage lenses from the 80's and 90's, then the Helios 44 series is a great place to start. They are known for their beautiful large swirling bubble bokeh.
There are several variations of this lens all with different character. They are all similar and different but built with the same goal - to copy the Zeiss Biotar.
Lately I've been shooting quite a bit with the Helios 44-2 and other old vintage m42 manual focus lenses from the 80's. While shooting with manual lenses takes more time and isn't always as precise, it's much more rewarding and you feel like you have complete control of every shot you take.
