Mirrorless camera reviews right at your virtual doorstep!

The Olympus OM-D E-M5 is a great little camera, so great that it has officially become my primary camera for work, as I have explained in-depth in my article Mirrorless on the Job – Episode 1. But like any great camera, you always need some accessories to fine-tune it to perfection!

Update: our full review of the Pen E-P5 is now up!
Yesterday, I had a brief encounter with the new Pen E-P5 at an Olympus product demonstration here in Torino. Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed to take the camera out for a short spin as I had done with Fujinon 55-200mm last month, so I will limit myself to sharing just my preliminary thoughts about this new addition to Olympus’ line of mirrorless cameras. Here at MirrorLessons, we intend to fully review it when we have our own test model available, so stay tuned!

Last weekend, as fate would have it, I crossed paths with the Fujinon 55-200mm once again. Since it was the Turin-leg of the Fujifilm eXperience Tour here in Italy, I was able to use it for a longer period than the first time. This second experience with the lens has allowed me to jot down some more detailed impressions, but an hour and ten minutes isn’t sufficient to gather enough material to write a proper review. But it was enough for me to jump to this conclusion: this lens doesn’t really suit the X interchangeable system very well.

With the advent of digital photography, black and white has often, if not always, become a post-processing option rather than a style to adopt during the shoot itself … and the reason is not surprising.

The Nokton 25mm f/0.95 is either a lens you love or hate. It gives your photographs a unique look and produces a very soft and pleasant bokeh, but the lens doesn’t come without its faults.
As always, the question is: is it worth adding to your collection? I’d say ‘yes’ if you are willing to invest in a product knowing that it isn’t perfect … but first things first!
