I used to view digital Leica cameras as a classic example of style over substance. Surely this is a perfect example of a company developing a luxury brand on the back of their, admittedly wonderful, history and heritage.
The idea of a Leica camera with image stabilization, a built-in EVF, Wi-Fi, 2 card slots, and endless more features may seem like a very foreign concept for legacy Leica shooters. However, this is exactly what Leica has made in the SL2-S.
It's an intriguing concept that Lensbaby deserves multitudes of praise for. A tilt-shift pinhole optic? Indeed, the Lensbaby Obscura is truly a first of a kind. When our team was first pitched about the idea of a pinhole, we were told that it would work with the Lensbaby Composer Pro II system.
If you love film photography, you're missing out if you don't use medium format film cameras. Arguably, this is where you'll really to start a major advantage over digital photography. There's also things like the look, the feel, and the overall approach to how you work with subjects.
Fact: some of us have never shot film before. Others amongst us are just getting into it. In 2021, film photography co-exists with digital and is in demand with lots of clients. There are lots of the mainstays like Portra, Tri-X, and Velvia.
Okay, this is incredibly exciting. The Panasonic S5 is currently the only full frame camera with the Live Composite feature. So if you want to shoot astrophotography, this is by far the best camera to do it with.
Many photographers have indeed felt a little burned by Apple in the past few years. So we've worked on and experimented with various computers, printers, and monitors to cater to this. Many photographers end up never jumping ship because they don't even know where to start.
DJI is labeling the newly announced $999 Air 2S its “all in one” drone. When something is claimed to do it all, I always wonder where the sacrifices are being made. One year ago, DJI released the Mavic Air 2 to favorable reviews.
You love your Leica! Let's be honest--it's a badge of honor that you've worked hard to get such a high-quality product. You adore the way it feels in your hand. The way that the classic ergonomics suit anyone and everyone is just a wonder to us.
The Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max is a powerful tool for many reasons. One of the big ones as to why our EIC uses it is AirDrop. But it's also an incredible camera and communications device. Apple released ProRAW out a while back.
I have to say that I absolutely love when Fujifilm gives me a project. I tend to make some of my best work when I am under a deadline. And of course, I’m incredibly honored that I am one of the few that they trusted with this beast pre-launch. Now, I’ll start like I do […]

On January 15th, 2008, Steve Jobs pulled a MacBook Air out of a manila envelope and changed laptop computers forever.

Earlier this year, we carefully observed the kits used by award-winning press photographers. What we learned is that there really, truly is no such thing as a bad camera anymore. They're all good.
Fujifilm truly amazed me and showed how they've got guts. How often does a company discontinue a film, listen to their fans, and then bring it back? I mean, would you ever expect Apple to say that they were wrong? Or Canon? Fujifilm basically did that, and they deserve lots of praise for it.

The Panasonic S5 is so far shaping up to be a good camera. It's one of the smallest and lightest full frame mirrorless cameras on the market. And there is the inclusion of Live Composite. But as we test it further, we wonder why Panasonic didn't release this camera ahead of all the others on the market.
It's never my intention to quite literally get people to not purchase a camera. In fact, it's only ever been our intention to report our findings. But amazingly, we stopped people from buying the camera.

Some photographers have shot their entire portfolio with one film. It's helped them get a very signature look. But others like to experiment. Today, we're sure that many of you sometimes wonder which Kodak film to choose.
A while back, Fujifilm announced that they were working on a 33mm f/1 lens. Recently it was announced that they had scrapped that lens to work on a 50mm f/1, which would result in a more compact lens.

Over the past few months, pre-production copies of the new Laowa 50mm 2:1 F/2.8 Super Macro Lens for Micro Four Thirds (MFT or M4/3) had been going around among some M4/3 macro photographers.

The Canon EOS R5 is fantastic and checks off so many boxes. What’s going around the internet about the Canon EOS R5 is all about video issues and overheating in 8K video mode. But if you’re a photographer and don’t really care about that or you want to shoot in a different mode, then I’m

"Black and white creates a strange dreamscape that color never can," is a quote by photographer Jack Antaonoff. And if you're smitten with black and white photography, you know this to be true. Even the process of thinking in black and white is an entirely different one that engages your brain like no other.

Every time I mention the merits of anything related to Leica, I catch flack from a contingent of readers here that seem to be angry that I would even talk about a product that has a reputation for being overpriced and out of reach.
There was a time when I believed the Leica M4-P to be the best camera that Leica ever made--and in some ways I believe it to still be superior over the Leica M6 TTL. The Leica M6 TTL is just easier.
Vintage glass shooter and photography YouTuber Mathieu Stern recently got the chance to try Lomography’s special LomoMod No. 1 cardboard film camera and special liquid-filled lens—an ostensibly “fun” combination that turned out to be a nightmare for Stern, who has dubbed it “the worst camera I ever tested.

With all of the latest and much more affordable entries into the L mount alliance like the Panasonic S1R, the system is starting to look even more attractive. The photographers that still like big, mammoth, DSLR like cameras are going to be very happy with the Panasonic S1R's latest firmware update.
For a several years now, I have been patiently waiting for a “new” MacBook Pro to arrive. There has been a lot of hype about new processors, increased screen size and resolution, improved features and connectivity, even better battery life.

Make no mistake, the new iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max smartphones from Apple are all about the camera system.

After using a Leica Q for 3.5 years, I decided to pre-order the eagerly anticipated Q2 in early March 2019. Despite owning a number of cameras over the years, the Leica Q had become my go-to camera for its light weight, small size, and high image quality. While I hope to do a full review […]
If you've ever wanted a really solid wide angle zoom lens arguably the best option for many years was the Nikon 14-24mm f2. 8 or the Canon 16-35mm f2. 8 L. But the new Sigma 12-24mm f4 Art lens is looking to challenge the offerings from both of those companies by also incorporating a bit of weather sealing and making the price more affordable.

Ouch. Reviews don’t get much worse than starting with “The GoPro Karma is unquestionably, inarguably, unarguably, without a doubt, the worst drone I have ever flown. ” And it only went downhill from there… (Warning: Strong language).
We've finally finished our Fujifilm X-T2 review. Overall, it's a fantastic camera. It offers wonderful image quality and perhaps the best reliability of any Fujifilm camera we've tested. We've been told that it was designed to be a workhorse, and for the most part it really is.
