Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 For Fujifilm X Mount. The Perfect Kit Lens?


The new (for X Mount) Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary lens is an amazingly compact zoom lens for the Fujifilm X Series. As small as the famous XF18-55mm f/2.8-4 R OIS (but lighter), this made-in-Japan zoom lens from Sigma has a constant f/2.8 aperture throughout the entire zoom range. Although as compact as a kit lens, this Sigma zoom lens performs closer to Fujifilm's professional zoom lenses. This is my first shooting impressions of this lens. Please wait for my long term review as I have only had this lens for a few days. Thank you Sigma USA and Sigma Japan for sending me this lens to review.

Super-Telephoto-Zoom For $2000 USD? New Fujifilm XF150-600mm f/5.6-8 R L...


I'm not really a super-telephoto photographer, nor do I photograph birds, but this lens made it a lot of fun to do both. Check out my article on Fujilove as well:





Fujifilm X-H2S + XF18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR: UNBOXING + First Look


This is a long video so buckle your seatbelt!! The time has finally arrived to announce the brand new Fujifilm X-H2S. It's not just a new camera, but the release of the fifth-generation sensor and processor combination on the 10th anniversary of the X-Mount. The new Fujifilm X-H2S has the latest  26MP X-Trans V Stacked BSI CMOS Sensor and the X-Processor V with AI Digital Signal Processor 1GHz main + 600MHz sub (for IBIS). I was a huge fan of the original X-H1 and I'm glad Fujifilm decided to keep it in the line-up, but how much has it strayed from the original design and concept? Is it worth selling your X-T4, or should you wait for the X-T5? Is this camera more for videographers, or can photographers still utilize the power and speed of this new sensor and processor? Let's find out. 

This is just my unboxing and first look at the new X-H2S and the new XF18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR lens. Wait for my first shooting impressions video coming soon, as well as my first look at the new XF150-600mm F5.6-8 R LM OIS WR. I will have another video in a few days going over the benefits of buying some older X Series camera bodies, so don't forget to subscribe and turn on notifications. Thanks for watching, thanks for your support, and happy shooting!!

UNBOXING: The New Wotancraft SCOUT (Best Everyday Bag?)


Wotancraft has been on a roll lately with their everyday bags. I love the Pilot camera bag series, but my favourite bag so far has been their Lightning Rider, which technically isn't a dedicated camera bag. The new Scout is also an everyday bag, but it's also a camera bag. I wonder which bag I'll end up using the most. Check out my latest video and below are affiliate links:
