Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 STM (Fuji X Version) lens review with samples
This is Viltrox's autofocus 85mm lens for Fuji X system cameras. Don't get it mixed up with their other 85mm lenses. And it has some pretty interesting (to me, anyway) characteristics, not to mention a very reasonable price; let's take a look.

Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 STM (Sony E version - full-frame test) lens review
Viltrox have released a firmware update since I published this video. Version 1.0.10 offers: 1) Lowered aperture noise; 2) Fixed delay problem of shutter releasing while using flash; 3) Improved blank screen problem at small apertures.

It's déjà vu time, as I finally get the chance to test that Viltrox lens I first handled on the APS-C Fuji X system on a full-frame camera - because it's finally out on Sony E-mount. And it did fairly well - take a look.

Fuji XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 OIS lens review with samples
Fuji's original and classy kit lens is popular, and was well-regarded when reviewed on 16mp cameras. Let's put it through its paces on on of Fuji's slightly newer 24mp cameras and see if it still comes out flying.

Fuji X-H2 camera review
I had a BLAST with this Fuji camera. It may be expensive but it's hugely powerful for the money you're paying...except with one or two flaws here and there.

Fuji XC 15-45mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS PZ lens review with samples
Fuji's latest low-budget kit lens is smaller than their previous options, and it's also the standard zoom kit lens with the widest possible angle on the market today. Let's see if it's any good.
