Review: Fujifilm 11mm Extension Tube MCEX-11 | Jordan Steele
Fuji surprised the market by releasing something that is both the first of its kind and something that people have been waiting for since the beginning of mirrorless: Native OEM extension tubes. It’s surprising to me that it took 6 years Read more …
Review: Fujifilm Fujinon XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR | Admiring Light
Fujifilm’s X-Series interchangeable lens system has only been around for a bit less than three years, and in that time, they’ve managed to put together a rather impressive lens lineup. However, missing from that lineup until recently are pro-grade fast Read more …
Fuji 50-140mm f/2.8 vs. Fuji 55-200mm f/3.5-4.8 | Jordan Steele
