Wow. Talk about reach. In my wildlife photography, I try to disturb my subjects as little as possible. Being able to fill a frame with less distance gives you lots more options. As you can tell, I like the ability of this lens. OM Systems recommends this lens for birds,
At first glance, the Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 is a bit of an odd duck. It’s not an ultrawide lens, but it’s not really a standard zoom lens either. It’s kind of in between. Next time you go out on a photo walk, should you pick this up instead of a
Versatile, robust, great for sports, wildlife and even plane spotting. Pros Cons Tamron 150-500mm for Fujifilm X — Technical specifications Tamron 150-500mm for Fujifilm X — Build quality The first thing that struck me about the 150-500mm is that this is a big, imposing lens. I haven’t felt this impressed
When packing for trips, I find myself seesawing between my Fuji X system and Nikon DSLRs. We do underwater, street, nature and landscape photography. Do I pack the Fuji X-Pro2, the crop sensor Nikon D500 and my old D800 or complicate things and buy the new Nikon D850? Earlier this
Laowa has been expanding their lens lineup with some really interesting glass for a while now. The Argus line is their new top-notch line of ultrafast primes. It currently features four f/0.95 lenses. The Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 is the only one of them built for APS-C cameras. For the
The Nikon Z 24-70mm f/4 S comes as a kit lens with Nikon’s Z 5, Z 6II, and Z 7II mirrorless cameras. But does this lens perform like kit lenses from years past or like a more modern lens? Find out in our full review. Pros Compact for a 24-70mm
I was recently asked to put the Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 lens through its paces. I already have the 28-75mm and the 70-300mm, which are both terrific lenses, so I was looking forward to trying this versatile lens on a recent trip away. This lens is the first mirrorless ultrazoom from
I was recently asked to put the Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 lens through its paces. Already owning the Tamron 28-75mm and the 70-300mm, both are terrific lenses, so I was looking forward to trying this versatile lens on a recent trip away. I also took the 28-200mm travel partner on this
One of the biggest dilemmas with travel is what lenses — and how many — to take. Have you been seeking the perfect travel lenses for Sony full-frame cameras? Then perhaps these Tamron lenses could be for you. When Tamron heard I was heading off to Tropical Far North Queensland
Sigma’s small, well-built I series contemporary lenses certainly raised a few eyebrows when they were released, especially the odd 65mm f2 DG DN. This fast prime lens finds itself sitting between two of the most popular focal lengths (50mm and 85mm) and nobody knew quite what to make of it.
I recognize this isn’t a new lens. Like a lot of photographers, many of you — like me — are considering Fuji for the first time. A 35mm equivalent is one of the first lenses a photographer should consider. The Fuji XF 23mm f/1.4 R should absolutely be one of
Being a fan of Tamron, I jumped at the chance to review the soon-to-be released Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 for my Sony. The lens is the smallest, most compact and lightweight telephoto lens currently on the market. It’s only marginally longer than my Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 workhorse and is actually a
