I spent three weeks in November and December travelling around the US south west and the forests of the Pacific North west, a bucket list trip that I’ve wanted to do for years. The south west more than met my expectations, it’s an incredible stunning place with some of the most unique landscapes I’ve ever seen.
Read MoreI’ve been using the Fujifilm XF16-80mm for over a year now and taken it with me all over the world. It’s probably the lens that I get asked most about so here are my thoughts on how it performs as a landscape and travel lens.
Read MoreThe deserted diamond mining town is slowly being reclaimed by the desert. It's a fascinated place to photograph, but comes with some challenges.
Read MoreThe new 8mm f3,5 WR lens is Fujifilm widest angle prime lens, and I've been using it for the last week around Lisbon. Thanks to Fujifilm Portugal for letting me borrow it.
Read MoreI've wanted to try the GF20-35mm f4 wide angle lens since Fuji announced it last year. I took it to Lofoten last month to put it through it’s paces shooting winter landscapes
Read MoreIt's been a couple of years since I last did an overview of all my gear for photography and what I take with me on trips, so here's what I'll be using for my photography this year.
During my trip to Namibia earlier this summer we spent a few nights camping out on the Skeleton Coast where the towering dunes meet the ocean.
Read MoreI took the 16-55mm with me on a recent trip to the Dolomites to put it through it’s paces for landscape photography. Usually I’m not a huge fan of mid range zooms, but I really enjoyed using this lens.
Read MoreI’ve been using the X-E4 for a couple of weeks shooting around my local streets and here's a look at how I feel about Fuji's latest camera. This isn’t an in-depth review of all the camera's details and features or a technical break down of image quality or a comparison with other cameras. Instead, it’s an overview of how the X-E4 feels to shoot with and what it brings as an update to the X-E3 or alternative to the X-Pro 3
Read MoreI've been getting a lot of questions about Fuji's latest tele zoom. In this video I take a practical look a the lens from the point of view of a landscape photographer and compare it with the 55-200mm, which has been my go-to tele-zoom for the last 5 years.
Read MoreI’ve been using the Fuji X-S10 for about a week now. This isn’t an in-depth review of all the cameras details and features or a technical break down image quality or a comparison with other cameras. Instead, it’s an overview of how the X-S10 compares with the X-T4 and X-T30 for shooting landscapes and video.
Read MoreI’ve been using the X-T4 for a little over a month now, and while I haven’t been able to get out and do some serious landscape photography with it, I’ve been able to use it around my home city of Lisbon and shoot some videos with it, so in this video I have a look at how good the camera is and what the essential differences are between it and the X-T3
Read MoreWith the lockdown keeping me at home I thought I’d do this year’s video going over what I take with me on a photography trip…not just in my camera bag, but my luggage too. My philosophy is to travel light and try to refine my kit down to just taking what I’m going to need and use, and it’s constantly evolving around film making needs and finding new ways to take less stuff.
Read MoreI’ve been using the Fuji X-Pro 3 for about a week now around Lisbon. This isn’t an in-depth review of all the cameras details and features or a technical break down of image quality, rather a practical review about what it's like to shoot with for street photography.
Read MoreThe very first lens I bought when I switched to the Fuji system 4 years ago was the XF10-24mm f4 wide angle zoom. After taking it with me on more than 20 trips around the world it's still the lens that I recommend most often to people who ask me which lens they should get for landscapes.
Read MoreBack in April I spent ten days in the Faroe Islands with my good friend and workshop co-leader Andrea Livieri as we scouted out some locations for our workshop there next year. The Faroes are an incredible place situated in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean midway between the Shetland Isles and Iceland, they have a little of both culturally, but the landscape is completely unique.
Read MoreEarlier this year I was honoured to film one of their “Precious GFX” films for the Fujifilm X Stories channel. I took the GFX 50R with me on my trip to the Dolomites in January and put together a short film about the camera. You can see the results on the Fujifilm channel and on X Series website.
Read MoreI got the chance to spend two weeks in shooting in the Dolomites with the Fujifilm GFX 50R earlier this month, and here's a video review I put together. Like all my reviews it's in no way technical or focused on specs or comparisons, but instead based on my experiences shooting with the camera and working with it in the field.
Read MoreIf like me, you love shooting wide angle landscapes then the Fuji XF8-16 f2.8 lens with weather sealing has probably been on your radar since it first appeared on the Fuji roadmap last year. I’ve been happily using the 10-24mm since I switched to Fuji about three and a half years ago, it’s my most used lens by a long way, so I’ve been wanting to have a look at this lens for while now and see if it can replace the 10-24mm as my go-to wide angle zoom.
Read MoreI’ve been using the Fuji X-T3 for a couple of months now after upgrading from the X-T2 and in this video I’ve tried to give an overview about how good I feel the X-T3 is for shooting landscapes based on my own experience with it and previous X-T series cameras.
