  • Three Lenses Every Photographer Should Own
    Posted by BenGsKe Feb20
    by Chris Folsom. It’s a question I hear a lot from new photographers: “what lenses should I buy?” And while there are a lot of different types of lenses appropriate for many different situations and needs, time and time again I find myself primarily relying on three lenses in my bag: a fast general purpose zoom (18-50mm), a macro lens and a telephoto zoom (70-200mm). These three lenses will give you enough versatility to shoot in almost any conditions. Also, these three lenses ar... more »

    Posted by BenGsKe Feb18
    Zoltan Arva-Toth The AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR is Nikon’s first ultrawide-to-wide zoom lens featuring Vibration Reduction (VR), and generally, the world’s first full-frame ultrawide lens with any form of in-lens stabilisation. Intended to be a more affordable alternative to the venerable AF-S Zoom-Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D IF-ED, the new AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR features Nikon’s proprietary Nano Crystal coating and incorporates 2 extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements as we... more »

  • Lensbaby to Showcase New Optics at PMA

  • Tokina AT-X 116 Pro DX 11-16mm f/2.8 for Sony
    Posted by BenGsKe Feb5
    Zoltan Arva-Toth Tokina has announced the availability of its AT-X 116 Pro DX 11-16mm f/2.8 DX zoom for Sony, which is the manufacturer’s first DX lens for the Sony Alpha mount. Years ago, Tokina used to manufacture lenses for the Minolta A mount, but this is their first-ever offering for cropped-sensor Sony DSLR cameras. Constructed of 13 elements in 11 groups, the Tokina AT-X 116 Pro DX offers an angle-of-view range of 104°-82°, similar to that of a 16.5-24mm lens mounted on a 35mm ... more »

The new version offers more precise focusing and accepts filters without a filter a... more »

  • Canon’s enormous 5200mm F/14 DSLR lens
    Posted by BenGsKe Jan5
    I love when odd pieces of crazy photo gear show up on eBay and this one has crazy written all over it. The listing, which sadly ended back in December, claims this 5200mm prime is more than 6-feet long and weighs about 220-pounds. The more of the listing you read, the more crazy numbers you come across. Minimum focus distance? 120 meters, which is just a shade under 400 feet. That means that if you want to shoot a football game with it, you'd need to be more than the length of a full footbal... more »
