Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM Review
The Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 is a tiny lens - almost a pancake - that can be thrown in your bag or jacket pocket while still covering full-frame! At $300, it's a very exciting option that seems tailor-made to pair with a midrange zoom. But how does the Canon RF...
Photographing Owls with a Basic Supertelephoto and an Exotic, Side-by-Side
Islands, washed by the sea from all sides, have long evoked a sense of romanticism in many of us. And what makes islands so special? It is, of course, their isolation. Thanks to this, islands have been the backdrop of many heroic tales, both real and fiction - from Robinson...
Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Review
The Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM is a high-end, ultra-wide zoom with a large, constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom range. While it features many of Sony's most advanced features, the lens I'm reviewing today is only the first generation of the lens, and Sony also has a...

Full Frame Cameras: Do We Really Need Them?
Full frame. There’s a strange magic in that word that makes us feel like anything derived from the sacrosanct 36mm x 24mm format is a mere substitute… not full. But is that really the case? Let me try to shake off this mysterious air and look at full frame with sober eyes.
Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8 L IS USM Review
Fast, ultra-wide zoom lenses have long been staples for advanced and professional photographers. The Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8 L is a recent example, building upon Canon's legacy of 16-35mm f/2.8 glass for their DSLR system. Our in-depth review will tell you everything you need to know about the Canon RF...
Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 Review
The Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.8 is a full-frame autofocus lens available both for the Nikon Z system and for Sony E mount. At just $380, it undercuts lenses such as the Nikon Z 35mm f/1.8 ($850) and Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 ($750). But how does it perform? This review will...
Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Review
The Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro is a lightweight prime capable of 1:2 close focus photography. At $499, it is positioned as a value option rather than one of Canon's high-end L-series lenses, but it still has some tricks up its sleeve. Should you add the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8...
