Color  film for your camera.  All current color film brands, types and sizes, including cartridge, roll, and sheet film that you can buy fresh right now.

All lens reviews.  Lists all the lenses I’ve reviewed, including Minolta AF, Tamron, Sigma etc; and of course Sony ‘a’ and ‘e’ too.  Also look for a few older camera and equipment reviews, plus some micro four thirds lenses at the bottom.

Sony ‘E’ system lens guide.  This is no longer being updated as of 2019.  List of all lenses that will fit the Sony mirrorless ‘E’ and ‘FE’ cameras.

Sony ‘E’ mount cameras.  All Sony Mirrorless NEX, now known as ‘E’ mount cameras, (including aps-c and full frame) from day one are listed here, with original retail prices, date of introduction, and a few specs.

Sony ‘a’ mount cameras.  All Sony ‘a’ mount DSLR and translucent types, (including aps-c and full frame) from day one are listed here, with original retail prices, date of introduction, and a few specs.  This mount is the same as Minolta’s ‘AF’ mount.

Sony RX series fixed lens cameras.  You will find all of Sony’s fixed lens cameras here with an ‘RX’ designation, usually meaning with at least a one inch sensor or larger.

E’, and ‘FE’ lens chart.  A chart from the old site that’s missing the newest lenses. This will not be updated. For an up to date list of all lenses available for this mount, go here.

‘a’ mount lens chart.  Lists all the lenses made by Sony for their DSLR and translucent cameras, and uses the same mount as Minolta AF cameras.

Lens comparison page.  Here you’ll find a large selection of lens tests and comparisons; good for a rainy day or while wasting time at work.

Quick lens evaluation.  No longer updated, but still somewhat useful.  Here you’ll find a list of all the ‘a’ mount lenses I’ve reviewed, except the Konica Minolta versions of the Sony rebadges.  There are no mirrorless ‘E’ mount lenses listed here. I’ve included a quick blurb with my thoughts about each lens.

Sony and Minolta AF lens price guide.  I have not updated this since 2012, but It’ll give you a good idea of the prices back then.

Flashes etc.  Dated, but still useful as of 2018.  Nice selection of flashes for Minolta/Sony, and a few other related products.

Frequently asked questions.  Here I answer a few questions that occasionally come up. Dated, and won’t be updated.

Miscellaneous stuff.  Old brochures, price guides, a Grand Canyon tour and more.

Useful links.  Some of the websites that I like and visit.

Old home page posts.  This goes to the old site. You can easily find all my old home page posts on this page. All of the posts are on this site, but I have not organized them yet.
