If wildlife is your thing then the D500 is a great choice. I was out with it testing the Nikon 200-500 yesterday and the C-AF really impressed me with birds at the local lake. It was a really dull day and upto ISO 8000 was reasonable. I'll be writing up an article in the D500 + 200-500, Fuji...

I did a few quick tests with the D750 vs the D500 in controlled light to see if the D500 was as good as the D750 at high ISO. Here is the link . High res images are available on my Flickr too.

Hi everyone, I have just posted a quick interview with Fuji X Photographer Damien Lovegrove on my blog as after reading his portrait E Book I wanted to interview him and he was kind enough to oblige. Here is the link

I've been aware of Bruce Percy's work for a long time since I worked selling landscapes in Scotland back in 2010. I agree the tones in his images are stunning. Joe Cornish was one I considered from my memories of his work but upon viewing again if I'm honest I find his images a little mundane...

It's so subjective. Especially as white balance played a large role and apart from the studio test, was left on auto. If the Canon was left on auto white balance in the studio it would have had a fit. I love these guys videos though.

Haha. I just got your out of office reply. There's always next year

I would also consider Hans Strand's work right up there.

Ian Cameron is a good shout. I really enjoyed his book Transient Light a few years ago.

I recently wrote an article on who I consider the best landscape photographers in the world. You can see it here . It includes interviews with some of the photographers. Obviously this almost an impossible task as there are many talented photographers out there. So do you agree with those on...

Hi everyone. I'll be interviewing acclaimed portrait photographer Damien Lovegrove soon and thought it might be interesting to see if there were any questions that you would like me to put to him? Is there anything you are struggling with, need advice on or want to know more about?

If the 23mm focal length suits you then the X100T is a great travel camera, street shooter and it can pull off a decent portrait too. What makes it great for me is the leaf shutter, fast flash sync speed and built in ND filter. You can always shoot wide open thanks to the above, even if its a...

Thanks for the link. The 90mm f/2 and XT2 turned up today. Just charging batteries so I wont have to wait long o see for myself. :-)

It will be interesting to see how the 90mm f2 compares to the 56mm 1.2.

The X100 series are great cameras. I love my X100T and for nearly a year it was the only camera I used. The leaf shutter, flash and built in ND filter mean it can shoot in virtually any light.

As others have said, if you're sticking with zooms and want to notice the weight savings over your Nikon gear while retaining good IQ then the 3 lens setup of 10-24mm, 18-55mm and 55-200mm is perfect. I was always surprised just how good the 55-200mm was for a lens of its price and size. Prime...
