Sigma 35mm f1.4 DG HSM Art Lens Leica L Mount First Impressions:
If you’re looking for a 35mm lens for your L mount camera, there are a lot of ways that you can go. For one, you can get an M mount adapter, and attach M lenses. As all of you know, there are tons of M mount 35mm lenses to choose from although personally, I don’t like this route as much because I want autofocus. So, you can go the autofocus route, and buy the APO-Summicron-SL 35mm f2 ASPH, which is superb but also expensive. Are there any other options? Well, how about Sigma? You can get one of my favorite L mount 35mm lenses, the 35mm f1.2, which I reviewed a while back (review here) but if that’s just too large and heavy, then the 35mm f1.4 DG HSM Art Lens might just be the lens for you. It’s also a stop faster than the Summicron. I recently received a copy for review purposes, and here are my first impressions of it. [continue reading…]
Weekly Portrait Post: Sunset Shoot With Tiffany and The Leica SL:
I’ve actually been doing a lot of shoots lately but not much editing. I just haven’t been in the mood to sit down, and get down to the edits but I have been looking back at some of my older photos that I have not posted yet, and found this set from my Leica SL days. These are shots of Tiffany (her Instagram), and they were taken right around sunset. [continue reading…]

Nikon Z5 Mirrorless Camera First Impressions:
Full frame cameras are getting cheaper these days, which is great. Yes, we still have the super expensive stuff but nowadays, you can get a decent full frame kit for the price of an APS-C or even M43 kit. Take for instance, the new Nikon Z5. Ever since I heard about this camera, I’ve been really interested in reviewing it because I am a fan of the Nikon Z system, and at $1,396.95, it is right within the price range of my Fuji X-T3. In fact, it’s actually cheaper than the newest model, the X-T4. So, let’s take a closer look at it right now. [continue reading…]

Why I Prefer to Shoot With Just One Focal Length:
Hey everyone, apologies for the lack of posts. I hurt my back in August, and I was out of commission for the entire month. I was getting better but then it got worse. I decided to just completely rest it for the first half of September, and now it’s finally getting better. Anyway, I have a couple of reviews coming up but I thought I’d start off with something a little less technical just to get back into the flow of things. For nearly all my pics on my Instagram, I hashtag under my photos something related to a 50mm lens, and often times, I get asked if I truly use just the 50mm focal length for nearly my entire work. The answer is yes. [continue reading…]
