Testing lenses is quite difficult and time consuming though, so I’ve avoided it up until now. Also of interest are things like the way the lens renders in the corners at various apertures and if it has a colour cast, etc. For instance, the general ‘scores’ from DxO are biased towards peak sharpness close to wide open in the centre of the image whereas for landscape work we’re more interested in overall sharpness across the frame stopped from from f/8 to f/16. I’ve also wanted to do some lens reviews because, although there is a huge amount of information out there already, a lot of it is contradictory and much of it isn’t biased towards landscape photographers. This means things like the Mirex adapter on the Sony A7R, writing experience reports of the D800, etc. However, I did get a lot of people asking for my opinion on various items, from cameras and lenses to tripods and raw converters and when I feel I’ve had something to add beyond what is already available I've felt it a good idea to do so. ![]() ![]() There are so many reviews out there already that adding a few more ‘yeah this looks quite good, 92%’ posts wouldn’t really contribute a lot. One of the things I was wary of when starting On Landscape was including too many reviews.
