Milý Ježíšku... Dragi deda Mraze... Dear Santa... Mon cheri Piere Noel... and friends... I know that I haven't been the best photographer in the 2017 and that I haven't made many good deeds nor I was the best father or husband. I tried hard however, I can promise you that much. Here is thus a list…
I already published Loxia 85/2.4 hands-on in the Photokina coverage article, but it deserves its dedicated space, so here it is, slightly reorganized and with some new content. I had a short interview with Mr. Cristophe Casenave, senior product manager in Zeiss and expert on weather sealing. VBL:Aren't you afraid that Batis and Loxia are…
Sony FE 50/2.8 Macro lens, made for FF (but can be used also for APS-C of course) Sony E-mount cameras, was somehow quietly announced few weeks before Photokina 2016. On the show itself, this lens remained outside attention of the visitors, so I decided to give it a try and it certainly worth it. Here…
On 10th of September, in the group headquarter in Oberkochen, around 40 journalists mainly from Europe, have been introduced to the new Zeiss lens line called Milvus. Milvus Milvus is a Latin name for the Red Kite, medium-sized bird of prey, with largest population in... Germany (around 12000 pairs) While few of my friends photographers,…
I should tell you first - why I decided to make this post. One month ago, we were eagerly waiting for promised Zeiss Batis lenses, here in verybiglobo.com and we were also trying to find any source to get the new Sony A7R MII body as well as few few other novelties. Unfortunately, Batis didn't…
Sony released today information about new flagship full frame mirrorless camera A7R II, with whooping 42.4 Megapixels, IBIS (in body image stabilization), recently largest back illuminated (BSI) image sensor and EFC (electronic first curtain) in order to reduce possible shutter shock. From the specification, new camera looks fantastic and we are looking forward to get…
Introduction: In the last few years I tried or tested over 500 lenses. Only in few occasions though, I experienced instant excitement after seeing first results. I vaguely remember that feeling from my teen ages, when the girl who I was trying to bewitch from a safe distance, finally looked at me back. While subject…
I visited product presentation of Zeiss and Sony today and tried few of the lenses that I expect to get for review soon. One of the most interesting recent Zeiss releases is Distagon 35/1.4 ZM. This is fresh new lens in Leica M mount and I was impressed during short experience. It is small, sharp…
At the Kipon stand (mostly known as the lens adapter producer), I was attracted by the lens, that I heard about and saw some images, but never get a real idea about its performance or attractiveness. Here is what Hande-Vision says about the lens on their pages - "The worldwide highest speed lens for system…
Keeping it fast and furious... Most attractive lenses were behind thick glass wall :-( and all my begging to let me try them, went nowhere... But I managed to get one extra info, however unreliable it might be... Sony brought back to life, original concept of ultra wide and fish-eye extender for the new announced…
