A Fantastic Portrait Lens: The Leica SL 50mm F1.4 Summilux Review

I need to begin this review by telling you all how long I'd been lusting to test the Leica SL 50mm f1. 4 Summilux. Three years ago, I wrote this article about Jarle Hagan's documentary portraiture of Norway's Sami – a protected indigenous people and the most northern dwelling indigenous people in Europe.

When I saw his images, I was incredibly inspired in a way that I haven't been by a marketing campaign for years. His pictures, lighting, and the humanity he presents with his subjects is the thing of legends. But beyond that, it also meant that the Leica SL 50mm f1. 4 Summilux survived a super harsh environment. With this being a Leica lens, I wasn't going to question the optical output. Leica's lenses have always been stellar. And indeed, this too is a great one. But it's also massive, and unfortunately, the L mount alliance can't get it together with autofocus as of February 2020 when I finished testing this lens. But if that's not a problem for you, then you're going to be treated to a lens that's going to give you love at first click almost every time. .

Nikon 35mm f1.4 Z Review: Their Most Beautiful Bokeh Yet

The way that it was explained to me, Nikon's lineup of f1. 4 lenses are all about the character. They're not meant to be the lens equivalent of someone working in finance: rich on the numbers but totally lacking personality.

The Best Lenses for the Sony a7c II

The Sony a7c II is a small camera with quite a bit of technology inside. It's truly better than the Sony a7 IV which it's based on in several ways. This is thanks to the AI processing chip inside that gives it a lot of superpowers that some of Sony's other camears have.

Our Sony 55mm f1.8 Lens Review Has an Update

The Sony 55mm f1. 8 FE is one of the system's most unique lenses. It's small, lightweight, weather resistant, sharp, fast to focus, and delivers in ways that so many other lenses lack. We love it, and years ago, I purchased one to keep in my stable of Sony gear.

Hasselblad 907X CFV 100C Review: Not Suitable for Content

Every time I picked up the Hasselblad 907x CFV 100C, I heard a song in my head: "He'll Have to Go" by Jim Reeves. My earliest memories of it are of my parents slowly dancing together in the living room within our small Queens apartment.

Dear Fujifilm: Please Remake The Original Three Lenses

I know it sounds crazy to do, but I strongly believe that if Fujifilm remake the 35mm f1. 4, 18mm f2, and 50mm f2. 4 Macro lens to give them weather resistance and the same optics, that they would sell out like tickets at a Taylor Swift concert.

Why I Love Using UV Filters on My Camera Lenses

Years ago, the idea of protective UV filters on a camera lens was phased out. Photographers needed them when film was dominant to cut down on optical issues. We needed them in early digital for similar reasons and also for the protection of your lenses.
