It took days to finally get this one to upload, hope it was worth the wait. The Sigma 30mm is around a 65mm full-frame equivalent and the Olympus 25mm about 55mm full frame equivalent when shooting 4K with the Lumix G85, so it seemed natural to want to compare these two lenses. Aside from their... Continue Reading →
The Leica 12mm f/1.4 is Ridiculous!
I'm just wrapping up my comparison between the Olympus 25mm f/1.2 and the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 and just can't get over how ridiculous the Leica 12mm f/1.4 is.
Olympus 25mm f/1.2 vs. Leica 12mm f/1.4

One difficulty I ran into is that with the LCD screen swung out to the side and the mic mounted on the hot shoe, it's impossible to... Continue Reading →
The Saigon Central Post Office
The Saigon Central Post Office in all its splendor. I love the natural light in this building. I've got no idea how women can look so impeccable in this sweltering heat. https://youtu.be/MlDFwHFDi6Y
Fuji AF Lenses: Manually Focusing with Fly-By-Wire
A reader over at EOSHD asked what it was like manually focusing with the Fuji AF lenses, so I went ahead and did a quick, highly unscientific test of the five lenses in my possession. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSK4IRpAXUY
