    Buyer Beware: Counterfeit B+W Filters Being Sold on Amazon

    Was wondering if anyone can post a photo of how the "B+W" logo on the genuine XS-Pro filters look like. I just bought some filters from Amazon, which have same features as the ones mentioned in the article. However, the font used for the "B+W" logo is different from my older F-Pro filters...

    New EOS M Camera & Lens Make an Appearance

    From my point of view, this is a smart move from Canon, if it will be introduced at a cheap price. Regular P&S market is almost dead, as phone cameras are doing a pretty good job in covering most of the consumers daily needs from a pocket camera. With cameras like the M10 and the G9, Canon is...

    Nikon announced D750

    +1 This camera will kill the sales of the newly announced D610, which killed the newly announced D600 few months earlier. It's a good competitor to the 6D though, and I hope Canon's 6D Mark II will have a real focusing system, not that desperate 1 cross type point one.

    The New Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM Pancake

    The only reason I could think of for this lens being f/2.8 not f/2, is to not let it compete directly with the 22mm f/2 M lens. If so, then this may mean that Canon aren't giving up on the M system yet. Yet, I consider it a very nice move from Canon. With this lens, the 40mm pancake, and the...

    First Looks at Canon EF 16-35mm f/4 L IS USM Lens Image Quality

    I think this lens is a good update for the current 17-40. It wasn't intended by Canon to replace its current high end UWA 16-35L f/2.8 II, which explains why the new f/4 IS lens is not blowing the f/2.8 II out of the water. If I was an owner of the f/2.8 II, I won't sell it for the new f/4 IS...

    What was your first L lens?

    My first L lens was the 35L, bought it as an upgrade to my only fast prime at the time (the 50mm f1.4), as I needed a wider lens to be my all around lens. The 135L followed a month later as a result of watching dozens of amazing shots taken with that lens on flickr!

    It's interesting to see that the rumored lenses in 2010 remain as is in 2014!

    General purpose zoom for honeymoon

    On my honeymoon I travelled with my 5DIII, 17-40L, 35L, 135L, and extenders. I can't tell I had troubles carrying this around all day, as I've been a professional athlete for some long time of my life, but maybe others may feel the weight after few hours. Anyway, if I had your gear, I would pick...
