Agrian’s 4×5 field camera and my Nikon F4 mounted on the centre column in horizontal orientation. I’d been researching for an upgrade professional grade tripod when I was asked to do a review the Vanguard VEO 3+ 263 tripod with the BH-160 ball head. After extensive testing I was so […]

The Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x Macro lens has a well deserved reputation as a great performer for macro image making…but how about for portraits, in a word… excellent!!! I think you’ll agree text has its place, but it’s performance that really counts… “a photograph is worth a thousand words”, ergo […]
Foremost, this lens is sharp corner to corner with excellent contrast. Being an apochromat, colour fringing is virtually non existent. Being an MFT, it converts to 100mm making it a beauty of a sharp portrait lens rendering a pleasant bokeh. As a 100mm macro, you get some comfortable elbow room […]

This lens reeks of quality! I’m not exaggerating when I say it feels and looks like a Zeiss or Leica lens. The semi matte black finish is beautiful, add to this I love metal lenses especially when it’s machined to exacting tolerances. The result is silky smooth and precise focusing. […]
