Fujifilm X70 – A Quick Review

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 18, 2024
  • 4 comments
The Fujifilm X70 is the answer to those who want amazing image quality in as small of a package as possible. It has a lot of the same things we love about the X100T, but is much smaller and much lighter. In terms of image quality, it might be the best camera I've used that's still small enough to fit in your pocket.

Sounds great right? That's what I thought, but I actually don't love it. Here is why . . .

Sony A6300 Review – The Full Frame Killer

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 5, 2026
  • No comments
The Sony A6300 is Sony's flagship APS-C camera. Compared to the A6000, the camera features an all magnesium weather resistant body that feels much more rugged and solid in the hand. The camera also features a new sensor and the ability to shoot 4k. With Sony's growing APS-C lens lineup, the A6300 is one of the most versatile yet affordable cameras on the market. It's also one of the first of a new generation of APS-C cameras that are closing the gap on full frame.

Fujifilm X-Pro 2 Review | A Camera With A Soul

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 29, 2024
  • 10 comments
With a huge bump in megapixels, processing power and build quality, the X-Pro 2 is not just better than original X-Pro 1, but it's one of the best camera Fujifilm has built to date. Doing a camera review and being completely objective is something that is extremely difficult. Some reviewers will focus on some aspects of a camera while ignoring others. It's fine when smaller independent bloggers do this since it's fun seeing their opinion, like Steve Huff for example. But large sites, like DPreview or even TheCameraStore, will often cast a negative light on a camera and influence customer buying decisions while not giving credit to or maybe not even understanding the design philosophy of a camera.

Joshua Tree – Fujifilm XT1

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 18, 2024
  • No comments
A few weeks ago I found myself in Joshua Tree. I've been there a few times now but this time around things were going to be different. I had some new lenses, new cameras, and a different eye. The last few years I've been shooting a lot of Landscape and HDR photography and found myself getting stuck with the routine that often comes with those styles. I was just going with the trends and I needed to hit the breaks. This year I'm trying to shoot everything I can, looking for those incidental stories and moods. It can be challenging to get great shots, but at least this way the results are your own.

The Sony A6300 Is Here, But Was It Worth The Wait?

  • Alik Griffin
  • May 27, 2023
  • No comments
The successor to Sony's best selling camera is here! The A6300. I feel like almost everyone I know bought that A6000 when it went on sale these last few months. It was such a good deal it made it almost impossible to buy any other APS-C camera. I recommended it to maybe three people who all bought it, and they all LOVE IT!

2016 will be the year of the Monkey according to the Chinese calendar, so for our holiday card this year we ended up dressing our little one up as a monkey. This is the shot we ended up using for the card although I did manage to get a few more good ones.

Rainbow Bridge Long Beach – XT1

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 18, 2024
  • No comments
I haven't been spending enough time with my Fujinon 10-24mm since it got back from repair. It really is a fun lens to use, especially for landscapes. My only gripe is who ever repaired it left a giant piece of dust on the inside of the rear element that screams at me when shooting anything over f11. I'm so tempted to open the thing up and remove it, but I guess I shouldn't.
