  • A Look at a Lightweight f/2.8 Zoom With a Surprisingly Low Price Tag
    by Alex Cooke on 25th November 2025 at 11:04

    A compact 24-70mm style zoom that starts at 24mm but stops at 60mm instead of 70mm is not a common sight, especially with a constant f/2.8 aperture. You get a smaller, lighter lens that still promises bright aperture performance without the usual cost or bulk. [ Read More ]

  • Fstoppers Reviews the Meike 35mm f/1.8 Pro AF: Amazing Performance for the Price
    by Alex Coleman on 24th November 2025 at 20:04

    The 35mm focal length is a staple for almost every photographer, but native options often come with a hefty price tag. I recently took the Meike 35mm f/1.8 Pro AF for a spin to see if this budget-friendly full frame lens could stand up to the rigorous demands of modern high-resolution sensors. [ Read More ]

  • How to Close the Deal and Land Photo and Video Clients
    by Alex Cooke on 24th November 2025 at 17:04

    You've been there. A potential client emails you: "Love your work! How much do you charge?" You respond with your pricing, maybe a PDF with your packages, and you wait. And wait. And then... nothing. Complete radio silence. You never hear from them again, and you're left wondering what happened. Maybe they went with someone cheaper. Maybe they didn't feel confident enough to pull the trigger. Maybe they're still shopping around and you're just one name in a spreadsheet of photographers they're comparing purely by price.

  • The Programmable Button That Helps Autofocus
    by Massimo Vignoli on 24th November 2025 at 23:55

    When photographing action with a long telephoto lens, speed is everything. Even saving a fraction of a second could be the difference between a missed shot and the photo we are looking for. To that end, there is one programmable button that I find very helpful as a wildlife photographer – a “quick return” that gives the camera a better starting point to begin its autofocus. I’ll explain how it works in this article.

  • Photography News: Leica Q3 Monochrom Announced, Laowa Tilt-Shift Rumor
    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 24th November 2025 at 03:52

    More than 100,000 people filled the streets of Prague this Monday to commemorate the anniversary of the so-called Velvet Revolution. Thirty-six years ago, on November 17th, communist police violently suppressed a peaceful student march in these very streets. Thanks to the courage of those who protested back then, my country can enjoy democracy today. Unfortunately, now—just as in many other parts of the world—democracy in the heart of Europe is facing serious tests, and recent elections have dealt the cards in a way that raises concerns. But for now, we can still take to the streets and freely express our opinions. Let’s hope it stays that way, and not only here in Europe.

    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 21st November 2025 at 19:31

    Hummingbirds are undoubtedly some of the most popular birds in the world. What makes them so beloved? First of all, there are no ” bad guys” among them that would threaten humans, their crops, or domestic animals. What’s more, where they live, they provide irreplaceable services as pollinators for many plants. And as if that weren’t enough, they are also immensely interesting, beautiful, and gifted with flying abilities that are unparalleled in the world.

    by Spencer Cox on 20th November 2025 at 23:18

    At Photography Life, we try to bring you good photography deals as we find them, and of course we're approaching the big season for sales. So I hope you'll forgive a brief rant from me on that subject today, because I'm getting tired of how Black Friday keeps encroaching on more days every year.

  • Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.4 Pro Field Review
    by Jason Polak on 19th November 2025 at 19:40

    How many 85mm f/1.4 lenses exist for the Nikon Z mount? Browsing through B&H, I was surprised to find that there are already six of them, and maybe more that aren’t sold by B&H. No doubt, we are spoiled for choice. Surprisingly, none of them come from Nikon, although that’s probably going to change soon. But as of today, there’s a seventh one: the Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.4 Pro Lens, which is also available for Sony E mount. I’ll tell you a bit about it in this field review.

    by Rob Wood (Admin) on 17th November 2025 at 13:00

    For October's contest, participants came up with their creative interpretation of the theme where a lot of natural subjects were photographed in an abstract way, while some members also used camera techniques or unusual perspectives to capture abstract photos. Each photo was unique and stood out in its own way, portraying interesting abstract realities. Jean T has wonderfully captured the beauty of the Autumn leaves over the tree's roots. Congratulations Jean T on the win! The post October 2025 Photo Contest Winners: Abstract Realities appeared first on Light Stalking.
