Laura Hicks — Fri, 24 May 2013 02:15:59 GMT

The announcement of the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 lens stirred up quite a bit of dust. It was amazing to watch the initial reaction to this lens as there was a huge response from our press release alone. Lucky for us, Sigma sent a pre-production unit to preview. Unfortunately we are unable to post any images from our testing of this lens. But no worries, we have written a detailed account of its design and performance.

Nikon D5200 Review Discussion

Jim Keenan — Fri, 17 May 2013 18:57:59 GMT

Introduced here in the United States at the annual Consumer Electronics Show this past January in Las Vegas, the D5200 is, logically, the follow on camera to Nikon's D5100. Combined with the introduction of the D3200 and more recently the D7100, this completes Nikon's latest modernization of their entry-level and mid-range APS-C sensor DSLR fleet. All that remains is to roll out a pro-body successor to the D300s (D400?). If there is a D400 in the works Nikon has kept it a closely guarded secret, but the D5200 is here now and offers some incremental changes over the D5100, slotting into the current Nikon DX lineup between the aforementioned entry-level D3200 and prosumer D7100.

Olympus 75mm f/1.8 Lens Review Discussion

Laura Hicks — Fri, 10 May 2013 15:44:59 GMT

Olympus keeps hitting them out of the park! Whether you're talking about their super fast cameras like the OM-D E-M5 or their optically superior lineup of lenses like the 17mm f/1.8, Olympus can't seem to stray too far from our office conversations. And the 75mm f/1.8 is just one more example of what we have come to love about Olympus -- a company that provides a high quality product for a fair price.

Alright, you might have to dig a bit deeper into your wallet for the 75mm f/1.8, but we are pretty sure you will be glad you did. On a Micro Four Thirds camera, the 75mm focal length is subjected to the 2.0x crop factor making it the equivalent of a 150mm lens in 35mm standards. Using this lens to capture distant landscapes is just the beginning. This lens is also a great option for portraits, sports and wedding photography.

Nikon 1 S1 Review Discussion

Andy Stanton — Thu, 09 May 2013 18:19:59 GMT

The Nikon 1 S1 was announced this past January, at the same time as the Nikon 1 J3, which I reviewed this past March. Both are small, attractive cameras of the mirrorless, rangefinder-style with interchangeable lenses. The two cameras appear to very similar, though the 1 S1's suggested retail price is $100 less. I was impressed with the image quality and performance of the Nikon 1 J3 and I was eager to see if the Nikon 1 S1 could match its more expensive companion. Let's see how the 1 S1 stacks up.
