Bits of glass to mount on your camera.

My five favorite lenses

I have quite a few lenses, but some I like more than others – and some I use more than others. But they are not the same.

Nikon 85mm f/1.8G

A lens that I got together with my used Nikon D750 body, and a great addition to the arsenal.

Bad in the good way

So you want pictures that are low quality and trashy in a cool and trendy way? Time to get a hold of some odd gear to put in front of your SLR.

Sigma 400mm f/5.6

I bought this lens for very little money through the local classifieds, and I'm happy that it wasn't too expensive, because it's a really lousy lens!

The Lomography Petzval lens

Lomography has succeeded on almost all levels with their copy of the Petzval lens. The finished result is beautiful and a real piece of kit.

I don't use filters

I don't use physical filters on my lenses and I very rarely use digital filters on my image files

Uhmmm, pancakes...

I always loved the look of the ultra-compact pancake lenses. Now I own two.

The honest 35mm

For some reason some photographers seem to think that a 35mm lens is about as boring and bland as a lens can get. I beg to differ.
