Another lens review made possible by my partner Camex….this tim I had the pleasure of shooting with the Canon 17-40mm F/4 L wide angle zoom lens. And to be short it totally rocks! Of course I planned for the perfect situation so I could really test it under the right circumstances and with the right purposes. In my opinion this lens is perfect for events …the only thing left was to find that event and of course I did; Fashionchick Redesign Launch Event

STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

Being a street photographer I just had to take this lens on a spin on the streets of course and I really delivers interesting results. A very important advantage of Continue reading “LENS REVIEW: Canon 17-40mm F/4 L”

Easy for taking pictures with friends

“The lens you can always carry with you”

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 is the new inventive lens of Sony (in fact a camera without a real display) which has to compete with the Samsung camera/ phone. In my opinion this Sony is the winner, but still there’s room for improvement. Thanks to my partner Camex I could do this review, because they sell this lens in their store along with loots of other great brands. I went to Amsterdam with fashion blogger Fabuliciousgirl to check it out …unfortunately my phone battery was dead in no time because I forgot to charge it.

A camera for (fashion) events …small with quality

Small ….that was the first thing that went through my mind when seeing and holding this Nikon 1. Turn it around and you’ll be surprised by the large display on the back, yet it’s lightweight with changeable lenses.

I decided to do ‘review-posts’ about camera-gear (thanks to CAMEX), so I can help you guys decide what gear to buy ….and of course it’s my passion! This isn’t the standard (boring) review which discusses the technical specs, measurements etc. No! It’s the more practical approach and key features …just the way I experience it.

Collaboration: THE VIEWFINDER X CAMEX

I’m excited to tell you guys I have a new partner in crime: CAMEX, for who I will review camera gear. CAMEX is a great photography store based in Arnhem, The Netherlands. I’m glad these kind of stores still exist, where you get advised by real pro’s, learn from their experience/ mistakes and receive the wanted after-sales service …not to mention the ‘serious photography brands’ they offer. Why this collaboration? I’ll tell you why: Continue reading “Collaboration: THE VIEWFINDER X CAMEX”
