My Most and Least Favorite Nikon Z Lenses
There aren't a lot of photographers who have used every Nikon Z lens. And actually, I'm not one of them - I still need to test two, the Nikon Z 58mm f/0.95 Noct and the newest Z 35mm f/1.4. But I have tested 38 of the 40 (plus both TCs),...
The Power of Humor in Wildlife Photography
At times, wildlife photography can feel strictly descriptive: a bird on a stick, a giraffe on the savannah, a butterfly on a flower, and so on. Nothing wrong with that - most of the photos I take fall into that category. Still, when I can, I try to find moments...
Photography News: Pixii’s Full-Frame Camera, Panasonic Sales
Photography is like farming. You can't just enjoy the sweet fruits - if you want to harvest, you have to sow. For a wildlife photographer, this means getting to know the habits of nearby animals. One way to learn about them is to use a photo trap to study their...
How to Work with Plants in Wildlife Photography
“To hills of green and shadows cool,” wrote Rudyard Kipling in his poem A Coming May.

Nikon Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 vs Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7

Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 Di III VC VXD Review
The Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7 is a budget supertelephoto zoom lens currently available for Sony E, Nikon Z, and Fuji X mirrorless cameras. Despite the substantial 500mm focal length, the lens is relatively lightweight and small.
Olympus 8-25mm f/4 Pro Review
The Olympus 8-25mm f/4 Pro lens is a wide-angle zoom lens built for the Micro Four Thirds format. With an impressive 16-50mm full-frame equivalent focal length, the Olympus 8-25mm f/4 Pro lens covers most landscape photography needs. It even acts as a nifty fifty when zoomed in, giving it an...
Photography News: A Sigma Lens for Canon RF, Memory Card Sales
Before you swat that annoying mosquito that's just sucking your blood, hold on. This week is Insect Week. I have generously given a lot of blood to mosquitos over the past few weeks and didn't even get any photos of them in return. Instead, I tried to photograph butterflies in...
