Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary has been very well reviewed by the few that have managed to get their hands on it. Even DPReview holds it above the other options available at this time. It’s previously been said that this lens could have been called an ART lens and that doesn’t seem to be an […]
The Olympus M. Zuiko ED Digital 45mm f/1.2 Pro is an amazing value by any standard and it compares quite well to the Panasonic Leica DG Nocticron 42.5mm f/1.2 for a few hundred dollars less.

Olympus builds notoriously well-sealed cameras for these kinds of tests and no one […]
Cinema 5D posted a very interesting interview with Yosuke Yamane-san about the Panasonic GH5/GH5S/EV1/G9 and it clarifies some of their decisions. The interview is in Japanese so if you don’t like subtitles here are some of the highlights: The GH5 is for video and photos so it’s a hybrid camera. Half use it for photos and the […]
The Panasonic GH5S was added to the DPReview Studio scene and the results are less than impressive. In RAW I would say the GH5S holds its own until 6400ISO and in JPEG 12,800ISO, but past that I wouldn’t find the images useful. The performance in video should be slightly different, but these results make me […]
