    GFX 100 teardown at Lens Rentals

    Roger Cicala and Aaron Closz at Lens Rentals had the opportunity to tear down a GFX 100 that got ruined by salt water. Two key take-homes, a mix of good news and bad news: construction of the IBIS unit is very robust, but the weather sealing isn't...

    The famous Canon 22-55

    And now for something a little different... Here's a picture made using the Canon EF 22-55mm f/4-5.6 on my EOS 6D. The lens was originally sold as a kit zoom with EOS IX APS-C film SLRs, but it will mount on any EOS SLR or DSLR and it more or less covers full frame. Nobody will ever mistake...

    45mm focal length for Pentax 645D/645Z

    I'd welcome any thoughts about what might be the best bet to cover the 45mm focal length for Pentax 645 digital... for less than $1000. Manual focus or adapted from another system is fair game here - the objective is to maximize optical quality within the price constraint.
