  • Canon EF-M 22mm f/2 STM

    This is a superb general-purpose lens for the EOS M series of cameras. It's ultra sharp, and has the same quality optics as Fuji's 23mm f/2 on their X100 series, or LEICA's SUMMICRON 35mm f/2 ASPH.

  • Canon EOS Rebel T6i (750D)

    The Canon EOS Rebel T6i (Kiss X8i in Japan and EOS 750D in the rest of the world) is a basic lightweight DSLR with great performance. It's easy to shoot, shoots well, and the pictures look much better than many other brands of cameras.

  • Sony RX100 IV

    The Sony RX-100 Mk IV shoots super-fast, handles nearly perfectly and makes great looking photos. The RX100/4 works faster than just about any other camera and the pictures are always sharp and clear.

  • Pentax K-3 II

    [T]he images from this Pentax actually look quite good, better than I see from cameras like the Sony A7. This Pentax has very good color and tone rendition, which is all that really matters.

  • Nikon D5500

    My Nikon D5500 is fantastic: it's tiny and weightless and makes breathtaking images in any light. Colors are fantastic, and it focuses and works well in dim light or at crazy high ISOs unheard of just a few years ago.

  • Nikon D810

    No matter how you slice it, if gallery exhibition is your end product, no DSLR can make better images today than the Nikon D810 — and it now runs fast enough for action, too!

  • Canon EOS 7D Mark II

    The 7D Mk II super-fast and technically and ergonomically top-notch. Besides having essentially the same resolution as full-frame, high ISO performance is also spectacular.

  • Nikon D750

    The Nikon D750 is a remarkable camera. It's Nikon's lightest FX camera other than the Df, and offers fantastic AF performance and image quality in any light.

  • Fujifilm X100S

    The X100S is the world's best digital camera for travel, family and candid photography. It is so much better handling and gives far better images under a far broader range of conditions than any DSLR, mirrorless, compact or even LEICA camera.

  • Fujifilm X-T1

    The Fuji XT-1 is what a Japanese camera should be: tiny, tight, precise, fast, quiet, easy-to-use and extremely well made out of all metal. It's not another offshored-to-China excuse made out of plastic.

  • Fujifilm X-Pro1

    The X-Pro1 is probably the best camera ever introduced for actual photographers, as opposed to computer hobbyists or vidiots, in years. The Nikon D800 and Canon 5D Mark III are simply more of the same old thing, while the X-Pro1 is uniquely excellent.

  • Nikon D3300

    I recommend the Nikon D3300 to everyone who asks what camera to buy for great photos of family, friends, sports, concerts, theater and action.
