Lens Review: Leica 28mm f1.4 Summilux (M Mount)

The Leica 28mm f1. 4 Summilux was offered to me to test after requesting it a long time ago; and I genuinely never thought that I'd fall for it.

How a Wedding Made Me Not Miss My DSLR

This is the story of how I was reminded that I do not miss the DSLR days, and I'm very happy that mirrorless has arrived in full. A childhood friend of my companion got married last weekend and I found myself photographing her wedding--a little against my will.

Pretty and Practical! Langly Paracord Strap Review

The Langly Paracord strap is a camera strap that I was super curious about. This website has reviewed tons and tons of camera straps. But this one seemed particularly fascinating. I had a feeling that it would've broken on us, but it didn't at all.
