The Four Thirds system, like practically no other digital system on the market, is being built from scratch before our own eyes. That situation has disadvantages and advantages. An undeniable advantage is the fact, that all the new lenses are made...

The Tamron SP AF 60 mm f/2.0 Di II LD (IF) Macro 1:1 is a splendid lens in many respects. The quality of its optics is beyond reproach. The lens provides sharp images at all apertures and across the frame. Most of optical aberrations is corrected well...

This was the third lens that I got for my Rebel XT. I wanted something between the kit lens and my Canon 75-300mm III EF. Since I was just starting out with photography the price for this lens was nice. Since getting the lens it has become my...

P series is marketed as suitable for 77mm lens. You pretty much get a round photo when using it on a 77mm lens. The design is bulky and cumbersome when compared to my other polarised filters.

this teleconverter is ok. I'm glad I did not pay more for this lense. It's ok; not great. The challenges to AF when one combines this lense with the 80-300 VR are real except under the brightess lighting conditions.

I just got this and it was the quality I expected....basic. The plastic is firm but I would not stand on it. The plastic clips and handle are of adequate quality. My key gripe is the rings on the binder do not press together firm enough when closed....

The Hoya Super HMC coating should be as good as it gets, and I've found it to be as good or better than anything else. I base this more on UV filters, which are easy to evaluate experimentally. This filter, for me, however is very impractical. You...

If you're thinking about buying this, don't. It's not as loud as an airplane, say, but it's not "quiet". And its vents are designed so that they blow just to the right and to the left of what you are trying to vacuum, so that if you want to, say, move...

This lens is a big surprise. I got this as a "hood" with my F90X. At the first time i looked through it, was something to fall in love with easy and the first shots were exactly the same. This lens has beautiful bokeh, very good sharpness even widely...

Is software manipulation getting too much use? Could we do with getting back to making our effects in camera? Some companies think so and Lensbaby are one of them as they have produced the Lensbaby 3G. A selective focus lens that gives you the chance...

I used these lenses and serve for the purpose. \n \nThe pictures I took during a trip were better than when using just the camera. \nI'm not a pro or trying to be one. I receive the advice from a photographer that filters will help me to improve the...

**NOTE: This review is based on my Pentax mount version. I'm not sure if it works in Aperture Priority mode on all makes, or if the focus confirmation works for all makes.** This is one of those rare lenses that proves to be relatively cheap, but also...

Excellent fisheye lens. Bought some sigma fisheye for another Canon Camera and didn't work as good as this one. Perfect choice good quality and awsome price.

Bottom Line: The Panasonic Lumix S Pro 50mm F1.4 is a standard prime with few flaws, but it's is larger and priced higher than similar lenses for competing systems.

Bottom Line: The Sigma 28mm F1.4 DG HSM Art has the f/1.4 aperture photographers want and captures sharp, lifelike images, but it isn't as strong a value as some other lenses in the Art series.

The Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8S delivers excellent sharpness, minimal distortion and solid performance. The lens pairs well with the Nikon Z6 and Z7 as a “nifty fifty,” even if it’s not as cheap as such a lens usually is. The lens is also significantly larger...

The Samyang AF 85mm f/1.4 EF is a great lens to use, not perfect in that there are some AF issues close up and also quite a bit of edge CA, but overall a good solid performing lens at a very attractive price.

The Panasonic 45mm f/2.8 Macro is designed for any Lumix G Micro system camera such as Panasonic's G2 or GF2.

A light, versatile, crisp little thing. I work for a local newspaper, as well as doing PR and corporate photography. As much as I know the qualities of a lens 3 times the price, I need a good quality backup lens to go alongside the higher spec glass I...
