GH4 & Metabones EF to MFT Speed Booster & A7s Together. Hands On Review
When the new EF to Micro Four Thirds Speed Booster came out I jumped on it. I’ve been waiting a long time for an electronic adapter that didn’t require a battery so I could use my Canon EF lenses. The wait is finally over. As you can see I’m happy and so is my reporter […]
Zeiss Brings New Line Of Full Frame Lenses For Sony E-Mount With Loxia
One of my biggest issues with the A7s is lenses. Sony has a great sensor but limited native lenses to go with it. Now Zeiss has a new line of manual lenses for the E mount alpha line. I think this is great for Sony but these lenses are manual focus only. No auto focus. […]

Things That Drive Me Crazy About The Sony A7s
I’ve had the Sony A7s for about a month and It’s a fun camera with some great features, but I just can’t seem to get comfortable with it and a few things just frustrate me. Please understand that this is all my opinion and if you disagree with them that’s fine. I’m not a fanboy […]

Pre-Order The Atomos Shogun And Get A Free Gift.
The new 4K Atomos Shogun is looking to be a very capable 4K recorder for both the Panasonic GH4 and the Sony A7s. In such a short amount of time these two cameras have changed the landscape for hybrid cameras. They both are for the most part video first and stills second. This type of […]
