FotodioX WonderPana FreeArc Filter System Review

When it comes to ultra-wide-angle lenses, the Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G is an outstanding choice, thanks to its top-notch corner-to-corner sharpness, amazing colors, and superb performance throughout the focal range. The lens has become a legend, outperforming most ultra wide-angle primes on the market in terms of resolution. As I have...

Nikon MB-D12 vs Vello BG-N7 for Nikon D810

The battery grip has to be the most overpriced accessory in photography. Think about it – it’s a plastic/composite case filled with batteries and a few switches – that’s it. How come a Nikon MB-D12 costs $399 and the batteries aren’t even included? The Nikon D3300 body costs a bit...

Nikon DK-17M Review

Oben TT-300 Table Top Tripod Review

There are times when virtually every photographer or videographer could make use of a small, lightweight, easy-to-use table top tripod. Like that time you were on holidays and missed that spectacular sunset in fading light. Or, that unique angle shot that would have added a lot of production value to...

Retro Canvas DSLR Camera Bag Review

As smaller, lighter gear grows ever more popular – some mirrorless systems, while capable of delivering brilliant results in knowing hands, weigh half as much as DSLR systems – it is only natural for smaller bags to get more popular as well. Already you can see retailers and online stores...
