For those looking for a high quality all-around camera for their own imaging or videography work, I highly recommend the Leica SL2-S.

Let me be clear, as a portrait shooting machine, this lens leaves little to be desired (outside of the aperture ring). If you need a tool for that job, I can recommend this lens.
I love lens. That just about says it all, I think.
The Kodak Ektar H35 film camera is made for a very specific kind of customer.
Turns out that the Nikon Nikkor Z MC 105mm F/2.8 VR S is a truly impressive lens, and a solid choice for Nikon Z Series photographers who are looking for either a telephoto lens for portraits or a dedicated 1:1 reproduction ratio macro lens, or both.
The Nikon Z5 is the camera that I chose. And I chose it because, simply put, it’s the best value full frame mirror-less interchangeable lens camera available today.
This is the best Fuji Instax Mini camera that you can buy right now. It’s more expensive than the average instant camera, but it’s worth the money, and in fact it will save money in the long run, since we’ll only be printing the photos we definitely want to print.
The Pen F lineup of cameras are incredible, and when you factor in their persistently low cost of entry, I consider them to be a no-brainer purchase for those of us who value build quality, portability, and uncompromising image quality.
By the end of my time with this lens, I’d come to the same conclusions that I’ve come to every time I’ve used any of Nikon’s newest range of Nikkors. It’s amazing.
In use, you’ll find that this lens offers an enticing combination of benefits for the price—portability, stellar image quality, a reasonably bright aperture, weather sealing, and most importantly, a uniquely effective and versatile focal length.
The fact that Fujifilm adds a dedicated auto mode on the camera always struck me as redundant, considering you can just turn the shutter speed and aperture dials to A to achieve the same thing. But in practice, flicking one dial to activate the P mode is indeed faster than two.
After trying out Sony’s most expensive APS-C lens, I’m happy to conclude that I’m not really missing out on much, other than that fast constant aperture, which isn’t worth the $1300 at this point in my photography journey.
The 18-135mm has proven to be versatile, robust, and an all-around good performer for us.
Combining the intentionality of analog photography with the accuracy and speed of digital, the X100V is an extraordinary digital camera with analog heart.
Despite its six-year-old tech, ho-hum design, and less-than-ideal menu layout, I think the A6000 is still worth plenty of consideration in 2020 based on the value it offers relative to its performance and accessibility.
For me, there’s no better short tele lens than the Sony FE 100mm F/2.8 STF GM OSS. And this surprised me.
When I bought my Nikon D700, it was the cheapest full-frame Nikon I could find. I didn’t expect to use it for anything more than product photography, and didn’t expect it to wow me as much as my F4 or even my F100.
The Leica Q2 is an amazing camera and weeks after returning it to my friends at B&H, I still find myself attempting to talk myself into the purchase. It’s the most fun, engaging, and enticing digital camera I’ve ever used.
In all the time I’ve spent using my F100, it’s never let me down. Spanning thousands of miles, multiple countries, mountains, beaches, droughts and snowstorms, it has consistently delivered memorable, accurate images.
Money-aside, the Leica M-A is one of the best film cameras in the world and a really special product in today’s age of replaceable digital tech.
Leica’s CL has turned me into a real fan of Leica. [...] I even love it enough to ignore its annoying faults and to justify its multi-thousand-dollar price tag.
To cut to the chase, I’ll probably say something nuanced about this lens, that it has some flaws, but that it’s actually one of the best lenses in whatever category we put it in, and ultimately, we’ll probably agree that it’s worth shooting.
About two years ago I finally sold all my Leica cameras in favor of my Zeiss Ikon and I have never regretted it.
Incredibly compact, exceedingly stylish, and profoundly capable, it’s the kind of camera that is, for many people, everything that a camera should be.
