Am testat imprimanta FineArt – Epson P600
Se pare ca incet incet construiesc un instoric frumusel alaturi de imprimantele inkjet Epson, care au ajuns la mine pe diferite cai. Pana acum, in topul preferintelor isi pastra locul inca primul Epson detinut si testat de mine vreodata R2400-le A3+ (castigat la concursul de fotografie Microsoft Future Pro Photographer in 2006, deci acum 10 ani). Au trecut ceva ani si iata ca o noua imprimanta se bate pentru top: Epson P600. Dar hai...
Test ISO A7S vs A7S II – compressed and uncompressed raw
Versiunea in limba romana este aici. Since I got my hands on the new A7S II I was very curious if there is any difference between the new and the old model from the a7s series and hence this test: ISO A7S vs A7S II. Added to that, I wanted to see if there is any difference between Uncompressed and Compressed RAW files at various ISO levels. I really don’t like these comparisons tests and the proof to that is that...
A story on Zeiss Batis 85 mm f/1.8
I was one of the lucky six or seven photographers from Romania to get his hands on the first batch of Zeiss Batis 85 mm f/1.8 delivered to Romania. I was in Heaven, now I’m in Hell. Long story short, I’m returning it. Let me tell you my story with the Batis 85 mm f/1.8 It is the first lens ever (or actually first photography gear) I buy without prior testing it. The moment I heard about it and learned it’s features...
Ce camera auto sa-mi iau? Eu am ales VicoVation Marcus 2
Iata ca dupa toata nebunia de pe retelele sociale si din presa, cu soferul care a ramas fara permis desi a trecut pe verde (vezi clip), tot mai multa lume se intreaba ce camera auto sa-si cumpere, pentru ca nu, e pacat sa nu ai dovada clara a nevinovatiei tale, sau a vinovatiei altuia in caz de accident. Planuiam de mult timp sa-mi cumpar o astfel de camera si dupa multe cautari, intrebari in stanga si in dreapta, am ajuns intamplator...
First impressions review of a Detail Monster camera – the Sony A7R II
Edit: 1. I’ve added at the end an Before/After Gradin clip of the 4k original one. 2. Some findings about the LA-LE4 adapter and Minolta AF lenses I can’t express in words my amazement for this new mirrorless camera Sony just released. I was already so eager to receive it for test since doing the hands-on test in London during the press event back in June. I got it couple of days ago from Sony Romania and I...
Review of a very 4K-apable camera – the RX100 IV
When Sony introduced back in 2012 the first model from the what will become the RX100 series (I’ve wandered in Dobrogea with the first model and the review is here), the compact camera market was taken by surprise and well shaken by the success the first RX100 model saw among both enthusiast and professional photographers alike. As a proof to that the camera still sells. The evolution of RX100 series There were many similarities...
Review Sony RX100 IV – test cu o camera 4 K-pabila
English version is here. Cand Sony a introdus in 2012 primul model din seria RX100 (eu m-am plimbat atunci Hai-Hui prin Dobrogea cu el), piata de aparate foto compacte a fost zguduita de succesul acestei serii si RX100-le devenit aproape instant camera preferata de avut tot timpul la tine a multor profesionisti si nu numai. Drept dovada primul model inca se vinde, in paralel cu toate celelalte de dupa el (verifica pret si...
Test hands on cu A7R II, RX100 IV si RX10 II
Zilele trecute va anuntam tot aici pe blog despre festinul 4k de la Sony. Nu au trecut multe ore de la postarea acelui articol cand am primit vestea cea mare de la Sony Romania prin intermediul agentiei lor de PR, SmartPoint: Vrei sa mergi la Londra la lansarea europeana si pentru un hands on? Nu a contat ca in ziua aia reveneam din concediu dupa 18 zile de hai-hureala :). Am zis da cu gura pana la urechi, am dus fetele acasa, am...
Video review EPSON L850
Am ales sa va prezint testul cu EPSON L850 intr-o noua maniera, sub forma unui video review. Este mai usor de urmarit si, zic eu, mai practic pentru cei interesati de aceasta imprimanta 🙂 Vizionare placuta Pe scurt EPSON L850 Urmasul lui L800 (pe care l-am testat aici), Epson L850 este aproape identic cu L810 (anuntat in acelasi timp, am scris atunci aici) singura diferenta fiind ca Epson L850 vine si cu scaner inclus, fiind practic o...
Test cu Lytro Illum – Sa o luam de la zero
Ai platit cursuri de fotografie, ai studiat ani buni bazele fotografiei, ai inteles in sfarsit ce e aia diafragma si cum influenteaza expunerea? Uita tot! Ia-o de la zero cu Lytro Illum Cam asta incearca sa ne zica producatorul Lytro cu noua sa camera de tip Light Field, pe care prietenii de la F64 mi-au pus-o la dispozitie pentru teste. Nu exista conceptul de diafragma, desi nu va imaginati ca aceasta nu exista fizic, ba chiar este...
