elinchrom D-Lite 4 it review. 

If you’ve ever found yourself looking to get more lighting power for interior spaces, or an inexpensive but reliable system for portraits on location, the elinchrom D-Lite 4 it kit may be your answer.  I purchased two of these for lighting interior spaces, and found they’re actually less expensive than buying camera flashes, and much …

Sigma 30mm F/2.8 EX DN review posted.

The Sigma NEX 30mm F/2.8 EX DN lens review is up. The focal length and speed of this lens doesn’t really add up to a wining combination in my opinion, although it did turn in a good performance for resolution and contrast.  In other areas, it needs work.  Click the pic for more.…

New Sony products announced.  

Sony announced some new products recently, including two new lenses, and two cameras.  The new DT 18-135mm F/3.5-5.6 is priced at $498, while the new black 18-200mm NEX lens is $848.  I”m not sure if that lens is much difference from the current NEX 18-200mm except for the color.

Many pages updated.

I’ve fully updated the ‘Recommended accessories‘ and ‘Recommended cameras and lenses‘ pages.  Again, the products on these pages aren’t on my ‘wish list’ or stuff I think is neat; they’re what I use daily for work, or for adding to this website.  All of the products listed I own, or have owned in…
