  • Nikon Z 35mm F1.8 S Review & Sample Photos

    Nikon Z 35mm F1.8 S Review & Sample Photos

    The Nikon Z 35mm f1.8 S features a partly aluminum and plastic construction, combined with the dust and weather-resistant design and a bright f1.8 aperture, that all come together to make this one of the best do-it-all lenses for travel or daily use. This 35mm also features a nearly silent stepping motor internal focusing system…

  • Nikon Z – The Best System For Manual Lenses?

    Nikon Z – The Best System For Manual Lenses?

    What’s it like using manual focus lenses on the Z6?  Pretty good actually. I use to always like shooting manual the most on Fujifilm cameras because they had such nice focus peaking compared to my Sony cameras. But the Z6 has even a bigger advantage over any Sony or Fujifilm cameras that makes it even…

  • Nikon Z7 Eye AF Better Than Sony A7rIV

    Nikon Z7 Eye AF Better Than Sony A7rIV

    The other day Jared Polin posted one of his Eye AF tests, and I was blown away at how well the Nikon Z7 kept up. I always thought the Z7 was much further behind based on what everyone has said about that camera. This test shows something else.

    Sony A7sIII | Amazing Camera But . . .

    The Sony A7SIII was just announced and for the videographer, it’s pretty jaw-dropping. Everything everyone has been asking for has been addressed.  They’ve improved the bitrate, improved the frame rate, 10-bit 4:2:2 internal, it has the nice body of the Sony A7rIV, dual SD and CFexpress type A card slots, improved the IBIS (a little…

  • Pergear 50mm f1.8 Review & Sample Photos

    Pergear 50mm f1.8 Review & Sample Photos

    The Pergear 50mm f1.8 is an all manual all-metal, compact 50mm APS-C lens with a 75mm equivalent field of view. This lens produces a classic rendering with great micro-contrast and some very impressive sharpness, no distortion, and almost no vignetting. It’s a great street lens or portrait lens especially for photographers looking to take advantage…

    New NIKKOR Z 24-50mm f4-6.3 | The Perfect Street Lens?

    At just 195g, the Nikkor Z 24-50mm f4-6.3 looks like the smallest full-frame zoom around. For the first time, I’m actually kind of interested in a variable aperture zoom for street work.

    How To Improve Your Autofocus | Fujifilm X100VI

    Fujifilm has been a little under the spotlight lately for their autofocus. I personally never had a problem with it unless I was using the older lenses in low light until I got the X100V. This camera just does not like the way that I like to shoot and I get pretty poor autofocus performance.…
