You’ll Be Tempted By This Awesome Canon EOS R Kit

The Canon EOS R is a camera that I still use pretty often. Thumbing the D-Pad to choose an autofocus point isn't all that awful. But best of all, it's lightweight, weather-sealed, and can focus just as well as the Canon EOS R5 in most situations.

Why I’m Over Aspherical Elements and Clean, Sterile Image Quality

Review: Lensbaby Burnside 35mm F2.8 (Sony FE)

To say that the Lensbaby Burnside 35mm f2. 8 lens is an unusual lens would be an understatement. In an age where many photographers focus heavily on the speed at which the latest cameras and lenses can track and maintain focus on a subject, and whether or not the images produced are tack sharp from corner to corner, it’s nice to be reminded of the joys and challenges that come with photographing with manual equipment.
