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

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.

The Truth About Nikon and Canon’s 17% Sales Drop

Canon and Nikon sales have dropped about 17% year-over-year. A lot of journalist ( dirty dirty smear merchants ) have been cherry picking statistics to push the doom and gloom narrative to make these camera companies look like they are in trouble, with the usual intent to make Sony look like it's the new market leader and to make Canon and Nikon look like they are run by a bunch of idiots. It's a fun narrative to push and people lap it up. In this article, I want to try to shed some light on what is actually happening, what Canon and Nikon are doing and what we will expect to see moving forward.

Canon RF 35mm f1.8 Review & Sample Photos

The Canon RF 35mm f1.8 is an incredibly versatile prime lens designed for the Canon RF mount. The lens features image stabilization as well as close focusing macro capabilities with silent focusing in video mode. The 35mm focal length is one of the most useful focal lengths lending itself to many different styles of photography and the f1.8 delivers very good low light performance with some very shallow depth of field. The size, weight and performance of the RF 35mm f1.8 makes it one of the most versatile and capable prime lenses out there and it's also the best value when you compare it to all the full frame mirrorless 35mm lenses available today. Canon has really stepped up their game with their non-L lenses and it really shows here.

Once a year, at the temple Agato in Fukuoka Japan, visitors gather together to begin the celebration of the coming new year in an annual fire festival.

To photograph this event, I used the Canon R with the 24-105mm f4L and processed the photos with Lightroom. I'll also share you some tips and tricks and the mental process I use to produce these photos.

Did Canon Just Win? 3 Reasons Why I Think So!

As the mirrorless Armageddon comes to a head, it looks like Canon just dropped the most advanced camera we've ever seen. Period. Undeniable. I'm talking about the Camera itself, not the engine inside which still has plenty of horsepower. It might not be a spec god, but the camera is unlike anything we've ever seen from anyone. It really is doing so many things I love and is taking advantage of technology that you would expect to see in a Playstation controller or a Nintendo Switch or something. Let me share a few things I think are incredible. Then I'll point out the obvious bad things that are triggering people.
