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.

LIM’S Leather Case Review – Sony A7rII / A7II

  • Alik Griffin
  • January 18, 2025
  • One comment
A half case might be a smart choice if you want to protect your Sony A7r II better. I have leather cases on most of my mirrorless cameras and they are all great. The LIM’S genuine leather half case is also awesome. The LIM’S Leather Cases for the Sony A7rII are well-made. They have many cool colors but I chose the black and red. The case makes the camera heavier but also more sturdy and safe.

Sony A7rII Gariz Alcantara Half Case Review

  • Alik Griffin
  • February 7, 2024
  • No comments
When buying a new camera, I always like to pick up a few accessories to help keep the camera protected. Usually this includes a screen protector and some sort of grip or half case.

When I bought the Sony A7r, I never purchased a case and after about six months I ended up regretting it. The camera took a lot of extra wear that I wasn't really expecting. Mainly from using tripods.

Now after buying the Sony A7r II, I purchased a Gariz Half Case. The Alcantara model. And here is what I think.

The Voigtlander 15mm F4.5 lens is a Leica lens that's been optimized for mirrorless digital sensors. This lens has an aperture of f4.5 to f22. It's extremely small and light with full manual controls making it an incredibly fun lens to use. Plus it looks amazing.

Fujifilm TCL-X100 Tele Conversion Review

  • Alik Griffin
  • December 15, 2024
  • 2 comments
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.

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.
