When the 5D Mk IV came out, I remember rolling my eyes so hard. By that time, I had moved onto Sony, Fuji, and Olympus. They were all flying around Canon at Mach 3 while Canon flew on a single DSLR shaped engine. In 2026, the camera turns 10 years old. What…

In my 20 years of making photographs, I've realized something: people have always loved images with soft shadows and soft light. There have surely been instances and times where people loved hard shadows, hard light and direct flash. And now in the age of AI,…
Recently, a reader reached out to tell me that after I removed our Editor's Choice award from the Echolens review and called the company out for some serious problems, the brand took their website down. And for the moment, consumers may be safe. There's a…
One of the best-selling features of most modern cameras is the auto white balance. It allows people to shoot in any light, without the need to change the setting over and over. Auto white balance neutralizes colors, and sometimes, it is not what you need.…
Phoblographer is now the second largest indie photography publication; and it's thanks in part to our subscribers. In 2025, I started to do things that otherwise would seem crazy for a publisher of a niche photography online magazine to do. For starters, this…

The idea of using a portrait lens for bird photography was born in my mind the day Nikon unveiled the Plena 135mm f/1.8. It took quite a while, though—two years, nine months, and ten days, to be exact—before I finally managed to turn that idea into reality.
If I could speak to my beginner self, I would skip the technical side of photography and focus on more important blind spots that cost me years of wasted effort. Technical guides are everywhere, but understanding why you pick up the camera in the first place…

Most landscape advice tells you to pack up when the sun climbs high and the shadows turn hard, yet some of the strongest work happens in exactly those conditions. Learning to read harsh light gives you far more hours to shoot and a look most people never…
A 135mm f/1.8 that retails for under $1,000 is not something you expect to perform like a premium lens. The 7Artisans 135mm f/1.8 for L-Mount does exactly that, and it changes the math for anyone who has wanted this focal length but balked at the cost. [ Read…
