The Fujifilm X-Pro 3 Is Trash!

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 10, 2020
  • 27 comments
As you guys know, I love my X-Pro2, I'll probably buy an X-Pro3, but one of my hobbies is to always point out and share how dumb and bias pretty much all online reviews are, except for mine of course! :)

The Best Camera Is? – Sony vs Canon vs Nikon vs Fujifilm

  • Alik Griffin
  • March 9, 2025
  • 44 comments
I get this question a lot so I thought I would just throw it into a blog post. Surprisingly a lot of the people that are asking me are always considering either the X-T3 or the Z6. But Canon has a lot of potentials and Sony should still be considered a strong choice.  As someone that has all the systems and shoots with them each regularly, I’ll tell you what I know and hopefully, some of this will apply to your situation. This is really hard, but I'll do my best to be as honest as possible.

Sigma fp First Impressions | A Long Way To Go

  • Alik Griffin
  • March 29, 2024
  • 4 comments
The Sigma FP is a really cool concept that has a lot of potentials, and I'm excited to see where they take it, but it's just still got a long way to go. Lockups, bugs, crazy exposure, terrible display, terrible touch screen interface, cumbersome UI, photos not showing up after taking shots. Here are my first impressions of the Sigma FP.

You've probably seen a million comparisons between the A7III and the Nikon Z6, but have you seen any honest comparisons that talk about meaningful features that are actually useful to photographers? Here is the blunt truth.

Sony A6400 Review – One Of My Favorite APS-C Cameras

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 5, 2026
  • 10 comments
The Sony A6400 is a small lightweight APS-C camera designed for photographers and videographers looking to maximize versatility and image quality without compromising performance. Built like a tank, the A6400 is one of the best autofocusing cameras out there with some overall really nice specs. 11fps of continuous RAW shooting, 4k 100mbps video and a Tilting screen for selfies or vlogging. Because Sony omitted IBIS from the A6400, the camera ends up being lighter compared to the A6500 while having a battery that lasts about a full day.

Canon EOS R | Just About Everyone Got It Wrong

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 8, 2024
  • 12 comments
I've read and watched most reviews of the Canon EOS R, and man, what an echo chamber. The online review game has gotten really lazy. If you didn't know any better, you would think the Canon EOS R is a complete failure and a disaster, especially when you compare it to a similarly priced Sony A7III. I've been shooting with the EOS R for a few weeks now dissecting its performance and capabilities so that I can share with you all the pros and cons of this camera and how it compares to my beloved Sony A7rIII. In the meantime, here is what just about every camera review got wrong!

Panasonic LX100 II Review & Sample Photos

  • Alik Griffin
  • April 14, 2024
  • 16 comments
The Panasonic LX100 II is a pocketable compact 17 megapixel micro four thirds camera with a 24-75mm f1.7 to f2.8 variable zoom lens. It shoots 4k video at 100Mbps and features a toggle aspect ratio switch to change the area used on the sensor.  The LX100 II sensor is a 21 megapixel micro four thirds sensor, but the camera only utilizes a maximum crop of 17 megapixels at any time to allow for different aspect ratios for different situations.

Fujifilm X-T2 vs Fujifilm X-T3 | ISO and Dynamic Range

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 7, 2024
  • No comments
There has been a lot of discussion around the Fujifilm X-T2 vs the Fujifilm X-T3 regarding low light performance and dynamic range. For my tests, I waited for Adobe Lightroom to support the X-T3 since that is what most people use. I did not want to use some funky software to put out bogus results for the sake of being first to the scene. So here we are, tests from Adobe Camera Raw.

Fujifilm X-T3 Review & Sample Photos

  • Alik Griffin
  • January 18, 2025
  • 6 comments
For the last few years, APS-C digital photography has been battling the war of relevancy, trying to find its place in photography among enthusiast and professionals. Some people love APS-C, for others, it's just not good enough. In this Fujifilm X-T3 review, I'll be going over a few things you don't see most people or reviews talking about. I won't dive to deep into the nitty-gritty of the specs, rather we'll take an in depth look at what X-T3 is really all about; the user interface, how you can customize camera output and the experience of using it, with some beautiful specs sprinkled on top of course.

Fujifilm X-T100 | First Impressions

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 8, 2023

It's been a rough month with a hurricane then a tropical storm, then a new baby, then my daughter having a crazy fever for five days, a heat wave and now I'm sick. Needless to say, I haven't had too many chances to go out and actually shoot with the Fujifilm X-T100, but I have shot with it enough to have a very strong opinion about it. Here are my thoughts.
