I'm a big fan of smaller, lighter camera gear, so when Tamron announced a trio of lightweight, compact prime wide-angle lenses for Sony E-mount cameras, I took notice. Included in the lineup are the 35mm f/2.8 Di III OSD M 1:2 and 24mm f/2.8 Di III OSD M 1:2, which will be available any day now, and a

Sigma released the most intriguing and exciting camera of the year. This probably isn’t a statement you’d expect to hear, but I’d argue that 2019’s Sigma fp is the most unexpected and, subsequently, most pleasantly surprising camera from 2019. And not because it’s the best camera, but because it signals a clear and decisive break from the status quo of camera design that has been present in the industry for many, many years. Sigma has

The 24-70mm f/2.8 lens is a perennial favorite among photographers who prefer to travel light. As a someone whose heavy rotation rotation consists of hefty 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm prime lenses, a fast 24-70mm has long lingered in my mind. So when I was asked to review Sigma’s 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens, I jumped on the opportunity to see how well it could stand in for my usual trio.

I suppose it’s the habits you get into that define you. I was always a bit dismissive of rolling camera cases for photographers, preferring, for some hard to explain reason, to use old-school camera bags that weighed me down significantly. It’s true that access to bags is generally easier and you can move faster with a bag over your shoulder than a rolling case dragging behind you, but for me, the reason runs a bit deeper. I feel that the metaphoric weight of photography—the responsibility and effort—should rest on ourselves, and the same goes

As the satisfied owner of two Lowepro Sling bags and a smaller Lowepro backpack I often use when hiking or biking, I was delighted to have an opportunity to review Lowepro’s new Pro Trekker BP 450 AW II Backpack. As I had anticipated, I wasn’t disappointed. Designed to comply with the carry-on regulations of most US and international airlines (the exterior measurements are 13.78 x 19.29 x 9.84"), the form factor of the Lowepro BP 450 AW II

Cherry-picking the “best” point-and-shoot cameras from among the 200-plus point-and-shoots we carry at B&H Photo can be challenging, considering the criteria on which we base our choices. For this year’s best point-and-shoot camera roundup, we took every category of point-and-shoot camera in our vast inventory—from full-frame to 1/5" sensor-size cameras—into consideration. From there, we short-listed them based on user popularity, along with our own personal likes (and dislikes) in a bid to come up with a fair representation of what we

One half of Micro Four Thirds and one third of the L Mount Alliance, Panasonic is in a unique position where it is actively developing cameras and lenses for two separate systems. 2019 was definitely dedicated more to the L mount, with six new lenses being released along with three new full-frame mirrorless cameras. That alone would be a busy year for most, but Panasonic also made sure to keep its more compact Micro Four Thirds line fresh with a few new lenses, too.
With its burgeoning full-frame L-mount system clearly the priority of the year

The recent Transit of Mercury was a pretty big deal for a lot of reasons. I won’t go into too much detail about the actual event (we covered that pretty well already, on the B&H in Space page) but I’m talking about our coverage of the event. B&H partnered with Meade Instruments and the Amateur Astronomers Association of New York to do a morning of community

Everyone loves a nice 24-70mm or a simple 50mm lens, but nothing generates instant intrigue and interest more than a unique focal length or lens design you’ve never seen before. Whether it’s an ultra-wide-angle lens, impressively fast design, or it just has some kind of distinct trait that separates it from the norm, unique lenses are a sure way to add some character to your imagery. Despite 2019 being a foundation-building year for many manufacturers, with many lens releases focusing on core sets of standard primes and zooms, here’s a look at

After experiencing an especially prolific 2019, Tamron has been picking up speed over the past few years and reinvigorating its lens lineup with popular new options for both SLR and mirrorless systems. Splitting these releases between the two camera types, Tamron also makes a point of developing lenses specifically for mirrorless or for SLR, versus using the same optical design for everything. This helps to achieve smaller designs for mirrorless and retain the integrity of the SLR designs for the larger camera systems.
Looking at the SLR
