Lenses Reviews

Review I tested Leica’s reborn 50mm Summilux f/1.4, and it offers something modern lenses have forgotten

Review The Laowa Aksen 1-5x Ultra Macro Apo comes in a wide variety of mount options, enabling you to dive into the tiniest details with almost any camera

Review The Laowa Aksen 5-10x Ultra Macro Apo gives you more macro power, with anything between 5x and 10x magnification for a wide variety of mirrorless and reflex cameras

Review The full-frame compatible Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD comes in Nikon Z and Sony E mount options, packing a useful range and relatively fast constant aperture into a surprisingly lightweight build

REVIEW The Megadap M2RF enables Canon RF users to shoot with Leica's magic M lenses, with full Dual Pixel AF support

Review The Meike 85mm f/1.4 Mix II is a revamped fast, full-frame lens for Nikon, Sony and L-mount mirrorless cameras. It’s a highly desirable portrait prime and more besides

review The Leica 28mm Summicron-M is small, fast and fantastic – but is it really worth $6,000?

Review The K&F Concept ND1,000,000 Phone Solar Lens Filter with Press-on Mount Kit is a compact, affordable way to photograph partial solar eclipses with a smartphone, but it works best with a tripod, practice, and realistic expectations

Review Less than an inch thick, the budget-friendly Viltrox AF 26mm f/2.8 Evo is super-skinny but delivers full-frame, full-fat deliciousness for Nikon and Sony mirrorless cameras

REVIEW The new Tamron 12-20mm f/2.8 is lighter and cheaper than competing lenses from Sony and Nikon, but how does the lens hold up in real-world tests?
