I connected EF-S 10-18 STM to my Sony A7R using Ommite EF-NEX adapter expecting to use maybe the 18 mm range without too much vignetting. To my surprise, there is no significant vignetting at 10 mm !!
I got excited and hooked up the 10-18 on my Canon 5D III using a 13 mm extension tube to...
My phone is on its last legs, and I have been holding out for a new phone with a "decent" camera. Is LG G4 with f/1.8 lens, full manual control, and some sort of technology for better color reproduction the answer to my wishes?
Obviously the sample photos were taken by a pro and post-processed...
Finally, a powerful enough TTL speedlight in a matching size for Sony A7r (and all newer Sony's). The Canon version should be great for some of the smaller bodies or EOS M series.

After much research, I bought the Commlite adapter, but other users' input regarding others would be appreciated.
-----------------
The current EF to FE adapter situation is very mirky. I would like an adapter with better AF speed than ones on the market right now, even Metabones III, now IV...

EOS M3 may arrive with a 24 MP sensor, and since it may be unlikely that Canon has developed both the 20 MP sensor (7D II) and yet another new sensor at 24 MP, could this be the ubiquitous Sony 24 MP sensor? If so...

Smaller body NX400 with the NX1 BSI sensor, around $900 with kit lens. If true as rumored, that will be my next camera purchase to supplement my 5D III, seeing how nothing similar is coming forth from Canon :'(
Since installing Magic Lantern 1.2.3 on 5D III, I have noticed that my files shot at 0 EV exposure comp are wrongly tagged as either +1/3 EV (seen in Digital Photo Professional) or "+1 Step" (in Windows Explorer window, flickr).
Files shot with +1/3 EV are wrongly tagged as +1/2 EV (DPP) and...
A very detailed, thoughtful review of the interesting Pentax 645Z, with comparisons to Nikon D810 even and a serious effort to look into video capabilities.

Having purchased and returned the Sony A7R 36 MP high-MP monster, I was hoping for a Sony camera with same sensor but better/faster AF similar to Sony A6000, but this A7S with...
Anybody using the Sony/Zeiss FE 55mm lens yet?
DXO testing shows results very close to the Otus 55 mm, in fact second best for any lens behind Otus and the best audiofocus lens DXO has every tested. I should receive one soon along with A7R; I just hope all the ergonomic issues, Sony-specific...
Sony A7/R and lens sales must not be great, as Sony started a "Bundle Sale," with $200 off body+one lens and $650 off body+one lens+F60M flash. Be aware, the F60M flash is riddled with overheating problems which Sony will not own up to, but $99 for a $600 flash may be worth it for those not...

Reviews say Corel is comparable to Lightroom/Aperture but takes less computer resources.

I can't believe it, but DxO FilmPack 3 is offered for free. I just downloaded it, activated it, and yes it's free and works. It's very similar to Nik ColorEfex Pro which I also have.

I just received a newsletter about Rogue's "Safari" flash-booster. Looks great and appears better built than the "Better Beamer," but it is only meant for pop-up flashes. I have already e-mailed Rogue to request a version for regular flashes and would like to encourage others to request the...
I have come to the conclusion that I simply am not motivated enough to carry traditional light-stands when I'm asked to "take some photos" as a favor to acquaintances at things like baby birthdays, social gatherings, etc.
I have some traditional "portable" softboxes and even a lumodi beauty...
My copy of 24-70 f/2.8 II needs -9 at wide end and 0 at tele end on my 5D III. My Canon 70-200 f/2.8 II needs 0 at either end, and my 100L also needs 0. Some of my fast primes including 35L, 50L, 85L II range between -1 and -3.
A brand new Canon 17-40 f/4L I just borrowed needed -6 at wide...
These things usually go for $600+, so I would buy in a heartbeat if I hadn't just bought the 24-70 II :'(
