Camera Gear Review News (Page 20)
We knew that the Sony FE 35mm f/1.4 GM Lens was production delayed, with Sony indicating that the estimated ship date was "To be determined."
"To be determined" is obviously vague, and our expectations have been guided by the estimated ship date provided by retailers. Sadly, B&H just moved the expected ship date from Mon, Feb 22nd to Mon, Apr 12.
Amazon USA still has Feb 22nd on their page, but I don't expect that date to hold in light of B&H's updated estimate. Adorama is not guessing.
Remarkably, the Canon RF 70-200mm F4 L IS USM Lens is nearly the same size (and weight) as the Canon RF 24-105mm F4L IS USM Lens. Think about the packing space requirement advantage this lens holds.
Upon creating this comparison image for the RF 70-200mm F4 L review, I thought you might find it as interesting as I did.
Along with the Image quality test results shared yesterday, vignetting, and distortion test results along with specs, measurements, and standard product images have been added to the Canon RF 70-200mm F4 L IS USM Lens Review.
Here are a couple of comparisons to get you started:

Following the Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM Lens and Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS II USM Lens, it is not shocking to see this performance from the RF F4.

Image quality test results from the Canon EOS R5 have been added to the Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM Lens Review.
This lens fills a key role in my kit.
When first creating this post, I was going to say "Get in line if you want this lens." The popularity of the R5 has led to greatly increased demand, and the RF 15-35 has been mostly out of stock since the R5 was announced last summer. Upon testing the links, I realized that Amazon USA has this lens in stock. Order right away if you want one.

Image quality test results from the Canon EOS R5 have been added to the Canon RF 50mm F1.2 L USM Lens Review.
This lens is an impressive performer and a member of my personal kit. Here are some comparisons:
Here is a Canon EOS R5 vs. Canon EOS R resolution and sharpness comparison.
The Canon RF 50mm F1.2 L USM Lens compared to the Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens? No contest.
The Canon RF 50mm F1.2 L USM Lens compared to the Canon RF 50mm F1.8 STM Lens? Again, the F1.2 lens takes the wide open win. The price difference? No contest.
The Canon RF 50mm F1.2 L USM Lens compared to the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens at f/1.4? The Sigma lens puts up a good fight in the center of the frame, but the Canon lens rules the mid and peripheral areas of the frame.
What is your guess for the outcome of the Canon RF 50mm F1.2 L USM Lens vs. Zeiss Otus 55mm f/1.4 Lens matchup at f/1.4? I'll give the Canon lens the win in the center of the frame and the periphery appears to be a draw. The price difference combined with the AF difference? No contest for most.

Did Tamron create a miraculous superzoom? That answer is coming in the full review. In the meantime, create some comparisons, starting with the Tamron 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III RXD Lens compared to Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS Lens. Be sure to view the long end comparison.

Image quality, vignetting, and flare test results along with specs, measurements, and standard product images have been added to the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art Lens Review.
This is a solid performing lens. The primary comparison I wanted to see was this one:
Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art Lens vs. Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM Lens
Why are the center details rendered smaller by the Sigma lens? Strong pincushion distortion is the cause. When you see the price difference, you will lose at least most of that concern.
