Fujifilm TCL-X100 Tele Conversion Review

The TCL-X100 II Tele Conversion lens is a lens you put over the X100 lens adding a 1.4x optical crop giving it a 50mm field of view in the equivalent 35mm format. It screws onto the front filter threads of any of the Fuji X100 series camera lenses.
Tamron 15-30mm f2.8 Detailed Review & Sample Images

The new Tamron’s 15-35mm f2.8 Ultra-Wide Zoom lens has now shipped and I’ve been lucky enough to get my hands on one. This is the latest and greatest from Tamron and is designed to feed the hungry 50 megapixels on the new Canon 5Ds and other high megapixel cameras. To see how true this claim is, I’ve…
Fujifilm X100T Gariz Half-Case Review

I have been looking for a nice leather case for my Fujifilm X100T for a while. I was worried if the thinner camera shape would fit in these cases made for the X100 or X100s. I tried the Gariz, Leather Half Case because it looked good and had a solid base with a tripod screw.
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.…
Fujifilm X100T – A Real World Review

Not too long ago I made the leap into the FujiX100T fixed lens system. But why this camera? Why only a 16-megapixel APS-C camera with a fixed lens when I already own a Sony A7r with a few great lenses? I used to think megapixels and dynamic range were all that mattered, but now after…
Classic Chrome – Raw vs Jpeg FujiX100T

Out of curiosity I wanted to see how the FujiX100T manipulated images between JPEG and RAW when using the new Classic Chrome color profile. At first I would have thought that they would be almost indistinguishable or at least extremely close. After all, why would a JPEG image look any different than the RAW with Classic Chrome? The…
FujiFilm X100T First Impressions

As someone who has never used a Fuji camera before, I thought it would be fun to share my perspective on the new Fuji X100T. So here are my thoughts and honest first-time impressions on this camera that’s new to me. It might seem strange for someone with a Sony A7r and a 5Dmkii to…

Zeiss Sonnar FE 35mm f2.8 Vignetting And Color Test

I saw a post today from Leica Boss about color shifts with the Zeiss Sonnar 35mm f2.8. I’ve noticed in the community, people keep complaining about this lens and the price. Absolutely nothing is wrong with this lens for being in the 800-dollar price range. It, after all, is a Zeiss and it’s razor sharp. My…
