    Field tests for the Nikon 180-400mm f/4 TC 1.4

    If you consider buying an expensive lens like the $12,000 Nikon 180-400mm f/4 TC 1.4, you will find useful to read actual field tests (and not only the usual read-the-specs reviews that most web sites will provide). So, I found to welcome field tests that I’d like to recommend: Petapixel’s A Field Test of the…

  • Why is the Canon 200-400mm so amazing?

    Why is the Canon 200-400mm so amazing?

    Yes, I know. The Canon 200-400mm f/4 ext 1.4 costs a little fortune (or, at least, as much as a little car). Knowing quite well that I was lucky to be able to get mine (I will never thank enough those who contributed so actively; They will recognize themselves), I also know that it will…

    Tough fight: 5D MkIII vs. D800

  • Small programs for big ISO

    Many French-speaking lovers of the Sony (ex-Minolta) photo cameras know about the excellent web site of Alpha Numérique which is providing a wealth of varied informations (often appearing in the link lists I publish monthly in relation with photo software programs).

  • DSLR comparisons

    It is often a little difficult to compare two cameras feature by feature. I’ve come to a web site which does that (and only that), but does it nicely: SnapSort.com. Nice.

  • Canon EOS 7D: extensive field test

    I found a very good and very detailed field test of the Canon EOS 7D. Since it is not often that you will find such an in-depth analysis by a pro-photographer (Nature Photographer Ole Jørgen Liodden from Norway) ready to disclose so much information, I wanted to share it with you.
