My Latest Article for Fujilove: The Battle of the X-Series


The first article of the month for Fujilove Magazine October 1, 2020. In this article I compare the price-performance-features of the X-T4, X-T3 and X-Pro3. The big difference from my past articles where I compare cameras is that the X-T3 had a dramatic $500 USD price drop. This means the X-T3 + XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR kit is now $1499, the previous price of the body alone and $200 cheaper than the X-T4 body only. Although you get IBIS, the new battery system and fully articulating screen of the X-T4, is it worth $700 more to you? Check out my latest article and find out for yourself

New Youtube Video on the Nifty Fifty: Viltrox AF 33mm F/1.4 for X Mount

I decided to post a Youtube video on the Viltrox AF 33mm f/1.4 XF as a complement to my recent Fujilove article, for those who would rather watch me talk while waving my arms as a form of communication versus using typed words :-)

Review: The Viltrox AF 33mm f/1.4 for Fujifilm X Mount


Check out my latest article for Fujilove Magazine on the Viltrox 33mm f/1.4 for Fujifilm X mount. Overall I was pleased with the price-performance from this third party lens and was surprised how smooth and accurate the STM step motor autofocus was. The extra bonus is EXIF data communication between the lens and camera body, something that's often missing with third party lenses or using lens adapters. If you have any thoughts please leave comments at Fujilove and not here. Talk to you again soon, and remember to follow me on Twitter and Instagram

Bigheadtaco Presents: Vlogging Hurts Ep 01

My new series on Youtube called 'Vlogging Hurts'. Let's see how long this lasts. I don't mind shooting videos, I just don't like the process of editing them afterwards, especially vlogs. Too many small bits and pieces to worry about, plus adding music and titles and special effects. Ugh. In the end I'm happy once I'm finished, but stress about making my next one. I know I've been in a bit of a video slump so I thought this would be a good video to finish since I shot this almost 2 months ago!! Thanks for watching everyone and talk to you soon.

Best Value Wireless Microphone System for Youtubers: Comica BoomX-U U2

Hello everyone, this is my latest review on my Youtube channel. I do an unboxing and first impressions test of the new Comica BoomX-U U2 wireless microphone system. For $219 USD you get a 2 transmitter system, which is pretty unique at this price point. Like the Rode Wireless Go, the transmitters also have built in microphones, but the kit includes 2 lav microphones as well. It's a decent kit at a really good price point. Check out the video below

My Latest Article For Fujilove Magazine


I'm sure many of you know I write twice a month for Fujilove Magazine. The founder of the magazine and X Photographer Tomasz Trzebiatowski is a very smart and savvy photographer. He approached me 5 years ago when he first started the magazine and asked if I would like to join his writing team. Since then I've submitted at least once a month for the past 5 years. I've also produced some videos for him, we started a podcast (currently in hiatus) and we're looking forward to conducting some destination photography workshops in the near future. Here is my latest article for Fujilove with links below:

Let's Talk About Vlogging: Interview with PIXERF Singapore


I was recently invited by Pixerf to participate in their Pixerf Talks program. They interview various photographers, videographers and social media practitioners from around the world to see how we work in our field. We both had to compromise the interview time since we are so far apart. Their start time of 9pm is a bit late for a live Facebook interview, but that works out to 6am Vancouver time, which is way too early for me. I decided to sleep in my studio and wake up at 5am so I could be ready on time. Please enjoy the interview.
