The Nikon Z9 is a little heavier than I was expected and quite a bit heavier than the competition when fully loaded with batteries and memory. Or is it?

I'm seeing that people aren't as enthusiastic about this camera as I was expecting. Most of that comes from the higher prices, but there are also some limitations to cameras when compared to some of the competition which is interesting. It's complicated so I'll break it all down.

Sony 50mm f1.8 Review | Extremely Underrated

  • Alik Griffin
  • July 23, 2024
  • No comments
The Sony 50mm f1.8 is one of their cheapest lenses, meant to give shooters a taste of what it's like to shoot with a fast prime on a lighter budget with a very classic style of rendering. This lens has a cheap plastic construction and a clunky autofocus system but it is very small and very lightweight making it a great walk-around lens. There are a lot of technical issues but with the 6 element design, the lens produces some absolutely wonderful images with a more retro vibe.
