We arrived on Photokina 2014! It was 8 hours drive over night and bit of looking where to park, but most importantly we made it. We would stay as long as there is something interesting to touch and try. Our main focus will be on new Sony FE and Zeiss Loxia lenses, maybe new…
Dear friends and photo fans, We started transition of Verybiglobo blog to the new engine, few months ago. It took me a while to realize, that this ain't to be definitive process, but permanent work in progress. But that's not as bad news as it might sound. There are many new features that we are…
I am starting to loose patience, waiting for SEL 3518 to become available in the Czech Republic. I know, it is very small market, but first samples were delivered to USA almost a month ago, and I believe at least few samples should come here too.Why I am so eager to get SEL 3518 in…
Over the last weekend, I got a chance to test 4 FF bodies in a field. It was a promotion of the local photo store, and I could have done much better, but unfortunately I missed this chance. Well, at least big part of it.I had something around 1 hour to perform the test, but…
I just got Nikon D800E, with the idea to use it until (and if) Canon does not come with a proper landscape and Hi-Res studio camera. No critics to Canon here, I just needed higher resolution.For the studio work I choose Nikon 24-70 f2.8 and it should be enough for now. I might add one…

Review is in progress, but so far, I can post only few comparisons done against kit lens and Canon FD 35 f2 S.S.C.I will have to take more serious look at Sigma, as it is supposed to be great lens, but from those comparisons it comes short to Canon. It is different FL of course,…
Pentax SMC M 50mm f1.4 is one of the lenses that I was really interested in. It is supposed to have the same optical formula as a more expensive A-50 F1.4, with some differences in the coating. Lens has 7 elements in 6 groups all multi-coated and what is intriguing it has 8 aperture blades…
This lens got some very good reviews from the users that I could found on web. However in my hands it was rather disappointing. Lens has 7 elements in 6 groups and despite its small size 38cm deep it is rather heavy at 245gr. Build quality is very good, with rubberized focus ring that takes…
