Kodak Gold 200 Film in 120 Format Announced:

Hey everyone!  I’ve been a little busy with some projects lately but I’ll have some new reviews coming soon.  In the mean time, Kodak has announced something I was not expecting: I don’t shoot much film these days, and I definitely don’t shoot anymore medium format, since I’ve sold all of my MF stuff a while back but I think it’s really cool that Kodak Gold 200 film will be coming out in 120 format.  For those interested, you can already pre-order it.

New Blog Posts Coming Very Soon:

Hey everyone.  Apologies for the lack of blog posts lately.  I hurt my back (not serious), and honestly, I needed a little bit of a break but new articles and reviews are coming up very soon.  I’ll actually have something up right after this post.

For those who are wondering, the photo above was taken with my Leica Super Elmar-M 18mm f3.8 ASPH, and a Sigma fp L.  I wish I could post a full resolution sample up, so all of you can see the true capabilities of this combo as the detail is breathtaking.  I went out and did some night cityscape shooting recently.  I haven’t done this in a while…actually, the last time I did go out this late just to do cityscape shooting was during pre-pandemic times.  Anyway, you can read more about my experience using Leica M lenses with the fp L here.

So, expect some new reviews that should come very soon.  I have some L mount reviews, and I’m hoping to get some Fuji related stuff in as well.  I will also be posting my full review of Billingham’s new Mini Eventer bag (you can read my first impressions of it here).  As always, thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for taking the time to read my article!  If it helped, please consider purchasing from any of the links mentioned in this post, which in turn, helps support this site.  I get a small commission but it will not cost you anything extra.  Thank you!

Ricoh GR IIIx Digital Camera Announced:

Ricoh has announced the new GR IIIx.  I’ve always wanted to get one of these GRs in to review but for some reason, every time a new version is released, I’m either busy or I forget.  This might be the time I finally get a review sample given how popular they are, and cool I think they are in general.  If you’re interested, you can pre-order it through the link below:

There are also new accessories like a tele-conversion lens and a viewfinder just to name a couple, which can be found in the link below:

Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f1.8 Lens Pre-Order Available:

Speaking as an L mount user, I’m very happy to see more and more lenses coming out for the system.  For instance, the Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f1.8 lens is now available for pre-order, and it looks like a lens that will be quite tempting for some.  It’s a nice size, and with a larger aperture, this lens should be quite versatile.  I imagine this will make a great addition to many photographers.  The link is below:
