I’m indulging myself here with a review of a lens I’ve wanted to get my hands on for a while – the fastest aperture full-frame camera lens I have ever tested. Only for Sony’s mirrorless E-mount cameras (and as such, not adaptable onto digital SLRs), this lens can yield very dramatic images, for a reasonable […]

This has been a very popular full frame telephoto zoom lens for a long time now. And recently it’s come down in price an awful lot. How does it really perform on full frame and APS-C cameras?

Here’s a new Macro lens from Sigma – an update to their popular (and seriously aging) original 70mm f/2.8 Macro. But this new lens comes in at a somewhat high price of £500, and without image stabilization – does it have a trick up its sleeves? All pictures taken by me on Canon 6D, and […]

Price information: $400 in the US, and £280 in the UK. Here we have another slimline wide angle lens from Samyang, for Sony’s full-frame (or APS-C) mirrorless E-mount cameras. It’s for lenses like this that I bought my Sony a7R II in the first place, really – let’s see how well it performs. Support me […]

I was sent this lens by mistake when trying to order the newer HSM version, but I thought I’d test it out anyway. Is this lens a hidden gem, or a relic of the dark old days of weak Sigma lenses? All pictures shot by me on Canon 6D and EOS M3 cameras. If you’ve […]

Canon ‘L’ lenses have a reputation for extremely high picture quality – but what about older designs? The Canon 17-40mm f/4 ‘L’ is clearly a great ultra wide angle lens for full frame cameras, but what are its shortcomings, and how would it perform on modern full frame and APS-C cameras? Remember, I love Canon […]

Today I’m looking at the newest, and most expensive, ultra-wide angle lens for APS-C cameras, and the successor to Tokina’s rather popular, original 11-16mm f/2.8 lens. It’s designed for APS-C but it can also physically fit on a full-frame camera – so I’ve tested it on a Canon 6D, too. Have Tokina pulled a new […]

Here we have a Canon lens that used to be a nice ultrawide angle option for film cameras, but now we’re in the digital age it isn’t particularly popular anymore. But that’s not to say it can’t be any good! Let’s take a look and see. All pictures taken by me on Canon 6D and […]

I test the Sony E-Mount, Kamlan 50mm f1.1 APS-C. I do an initial review. Check this link to find it online: http://geni.us/WfnnB9 Is it the best fast 50mm lens for Sony E-Mount? The bokeh also produced from the lens is something you’ll have to decide.. DONATE! If you’ve enjoyed my content and have found value, […]

Here we see one of Canon’s older, budget lenses – originally designed to be a kit lens for older film cameras. As such it’s suitable for full-frame or APS-C cameras. Taking a look at this review – it’s a textbook example of how very differently lenses can sometimes perform on full-frame and APS-C. If you’ve […]

Venus Optics are a new, Chinese lens manufacturer who are specializing in manual focus, macro lenses…often with special capabilities. This particular macro lens is multi talented – not only is it the widest angle 1:1 macro lens ever made, but it has a very interesting optical shift feature for correcting perspective. With the overall quality […]

Venus Optics are a new, Chinese lens manufacturer who are specializing in manual focus, macro lenses…often with special capabilities. This particular macro lens can focus twice as closely as a normal 1:1 macro lens, without the need for extension tubes. With the overall quality of lenses manufactured in China greatly increasing these days – this […]

Today we have an exciting and enjoyable lens which seems to have had a somewhat quiet introduction to market. Welcome to my first ever Lensbaby lens review – although it’s not the optic they’re perhaps most famous for. Watch for full details of how this circular fisheye lens works on full-frame and APS-C cameras, and […]

Here’s one of the lenses that helped to put Samyang on the map. I love testing fast 35mm lenses, and it’s definitely a very fun piece of kit – is this lens as sharp as it is fun? If you’ve found this or other videos I’ve made to be helpful, then support me on Patreon! […]

This is a lens that is slowly becoming legendary for its sharpness – is it really all that? What does video footage look like? And is it really worth over £800 (depending on where you shop)? Don’t confuse it with its older, non-image stabilized brother, which I reviewed a year ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4xk6oeFpi8 If you’ve found […]
