Photography lens reviews – In this section of the website, you will find reviews of lenses for all sorts of different mounts.

That being said, this is not always the case, and in sometimes lenses can be adapted or even hacked to fit on different cameras. This has become increasingly popular in recent years with some digital cameras offering a great platform for adapting some of the lenses listed below.

I find the Voigtlander 50mm f/1.1 Nokton a fascinating piece of kit, and that’s not just since I have bought it! I’ve been intrigued by it since the day it was released, and have read every review about it I could find since then. There are many reasons I’ve only just put my money down …
I very nearly didn’t keep my Leica Summar, in fact I’d almost decided to sell it before I’d even shot with it. First off, it’s an ugly little thing. Mine is nickel so doesn’t match the chrome iiia it came on, and looks ridiculous on my M bodies. Secondly, it’s not in that great condition. …
