    The 300-600mm f/4 and the 135mm f/1.4 would definitely be good contenders, but the crown has to go to the 50-150mm f/2. I wouldn't award...

    I've owned Canon, Nikon, and Sony ILCs as my main kit at various times over the past 30 years. It's just a matter of being willing to...

    Thanks for sharing. Beautiful scenery, very high image quality. Great shots. Well done!

    By chance, I was testing the RF 200-800mm on the R7 on Thursday and took a shot of a Robin at iso 8000 - this would be equivalent to iso...

    I am using a EF Canon 600mm f4 Mkii and it has recently started playing up when it is on my R5ii. When I first put the lens on the...

    Really? I'm absolutely incensed neither Sigma or Tamron were mentioned.

    I kind of agree, while the 20mm 1.4L is probably a great lens (haven't tried it), it's just one piece on a whole line of VCM lenses...

    If the Nikon Z5iii gets the nod over the Canon R6iii because of ones favors "value for money" over "overall specs with all the whistles...

    It’s an issue for all cameras, as we’re not going to set them to perform autofocus at smaller apertures and risk being unable to focus...

    What I liked most about this post is its objectivity. I more or less expected a "Canon über alles", this was fortunately not the case...

    That Sony 50-150/2GM is a staggeringly good lens, and just 1340g. The 16-28/2GM is coming soon to complete the trio, hopefully it...
