Canon: it's been a really long time. You've released a ton of lenses for the Canon RF mount, but we're waiting on a single really important focal length: the Canon RF 35mm f1. 2 L. Where is it? We've got the 50mm f1.
“Wait, they don’t even sell it as a kit with some L-glass?” I asked my friend on the phone when I got the Canon EOS R8 in for review. And so, I tried to figure out what lenses to test it with. When I mounted the 100-400mm onto it, I didn’t expect the Canon EOS R8 to have better performance than the Canon EOS R5 in some ways.
There wasn't anything that prepared me for seeing the Canon RF 135mm f1. 8 L IS USM. Honestly, it's big. Not only that, but Canon has really outdone themselves here and innovated. It's providing smooth, circular bokeh that looks gorgeous.
It was Labor Day weekend of 2021. I, a small business owner and entrepreneur, couldn't turn off the work mode. It's a fault we all share. So for a little while, I took the Canon EOS R and Canon EOS R5 to the waterfront to do a bit of testing.
I never thought that a lens like the Fujifilm 16-80mm f4 R WR OIS would be made. But in retrospect, it's one of the most sensical lens options that the company made. This lens is small enough that a photographer would enjoy photo walking with it.
Fujifilm announced their latest X-Series camera yesterday, the Fujifilm XT3, boasting sensor and image processor upgrades that promise to deliver significant performance improvements over its predecessor.
This review of the Canon 5D Mk IV has been really, really delayed. I've had chances to play with it, but I don't feel that it was enough to truly give a formalized evaluation. For that reason, I tend to want to spend more time with products than other reviewers.
I never quite understood the Canon 16-35mm f2. 8 series of lenses--they overlap with the company's 24-70 offerings and the Nikon 14-24mm f2. 8 lenses seemed to be more reasonable in terms of building a kit.
