The Move to Mirrorless From DSLRs

Back in May of last year, I finally made the move and got myself an a7 III. I had wanted a Sony body for quite some time but was hesitant to switch. Before getting into my long-term review, I’ll first explain what made me make the switch.

My Slow Transition from Nikon to Sony

Why I Went Mirrorless and Switched from Canon to Fuji: A Detailed Exploration

Warning: This will be a longer and more in-depth post. But in the age of paid-for reviews, I felt frustrated by the lack of perspective on the "what camera should I buy" and "why mirrorless, really?" discussions that I see online.

Kodak Gallery Officially Offline, Some Accounts May Take Months to Transfer

Most people already know that one of the ways Kodak tried to dig itself out of its sizable financial hole was to sell the Kodak Gallery to Shutterfly, and the service officially shut down just a few short days ago.
