Reflecting on 2020 and Goodbye Sony
Welcome to my final post for the (thoroughly hated by most) year of 2020. This post will be very light on images and more discussing how I’ve sold all my Sony gear, how I felt 2020 went for my photography and what is in store for 2021! If you prefer to listen to this rather than read, I did discuss all of this in my latest podcast which can be…

One Year With the Sony FE 35mm f/1.8
After a little over a year of owning this lens, I think it’s time to write a review. This will be no way a technical review but based more on actual usability and real world use. Big Shoes To Fill With 35mm being my favorite focal length, I’ve owned quite a few different lenses over the years. I think my current favorite 35mm lens to date would be the Canon…

Is It Really June Part II
We’re now half way through June and as always, time is flying by so quick. I haven’t been shooting a great deal due to an assignment and exam but that is about to change. Digging Through the Archives I think it’s quite common for people to be going through old photos at the moment. I decided to have another look through my photos from San Francisco and I’m glad I…

Unproductive Times
Welcome to the first update for May 2020. To say it’s been an unproductive time would be an understatement. As you can probably tell by the amount of photos in this post, I haven’t been shooting much. The image below I took on evening when I went to get some takeaway for dinner. Although we usually try and eat at home as much as we can to save money, it’s…

Make It Float
I am a bit late to the party but here is my fortnightly update on what I’ve been up to. Now with everything that is going on in the world, I haven’t been shooting much. Here in Sydney we are in a stage 3 lock down due to COVID 19. What this means is we are only meant to leave the house for essential requirements like attending work, exercising and…

Attending a Sony Bird Photography Event
Last week I went to a photography event hosted by Sony Australia. This event was focused on bird photography and let us try bodies like their A9II and A7R IV along with lenses like the FE 200-600 f/5.6-f/6.3. In this post I’ll share my thought on both the event itself along with the lenses. The Event The event started at a hotel in the city. Before the presentation started we…

Searching for Something More
Here we go for another fortnightly update. The weather has been pretty crazy here so I haven’t really had much time to shoot. Work has been tiring so I haven’t had the motivation either. That is starting to change now so hopefully by the time I make the next post, I’ll have some extra high quality images for you! Finding Direction The featured image at the top of the page…

I posted a few weeks ago I was thinking…

One Lens Leaves While Another Arrives
This past weekend, I said goodbye to one lens and hello to another. Recently I posted about selling my Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS in favor of the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM. I already went into why I made the switch on my review, so I won’t repeat it here. Despite the fact that the Sony 16-35 GM is one of, if not the best lens I’ve used to…
