Fire In The Sky

I just picked up the new Tamron 15-30mm ultra-wide-angle zoom lens and have already had a few great experiences with it. I’ve been working on a detailed review but still need one more day with it before it’s done. Look for that tomorrow or this weekend. So far, I’m only liking it, not loving it.…

Fuji X100T vs X100s – 9 Key Differences

In the last few months, I’ve been reading many blogs and reviews on the Fuji X100T, and there is this thing they all seem to imply, “The X100T isn’t worth the upgrade if you already own the X100s.” I couldn’t say whether or not I agreed with this since I have never owned any Fuji camera since the Fuji X100T.…
