Canon EF lenses on Sony for 99.00 yes it’s true

Yongnuo just released what must be the most affordable AF canon convertor for Sony on the market. Get it here https://amzn.to/2wqD3wB

For under $100.00 you can now use your canon EF lenses on your new Sony body. Or if you’re already shooting Sony you can buy canon EF lenses.

It looks to be a very complete adaptor and without a doubt a must buy if you own a lot of canon glass.

Do realize that although some lenses will actually work better on a Sony other lenses can work slower. So do find some info online before investing in glas.


Cool thing is the fn menu button. Let’s see what that will do in the future. And of course thanks to usb the convertor can be updated.

I did not test this convertor but for this price I would say it’s an incredible deal so get it if your thinking about it 🙂

Save huge on raw storage

Sometimes you see things where you go “oh wow finally something ground breaking”

Now in all fairness I am not able to test this because I run on windows and at this moment only a Mac version is available. But I really would urge you guys to look at this.

We all know that raws take up a lot of space. But it’s also a format you should never even throw out. So what if there was a solution that could make your raw much smaller without losing any information?

Well look no further and visit https://dotphotonraw.com/https://dotphotonraw.com/

It looks awesome.

Let me know what you think.

Unfair competition or…

I just read this article

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-huawei-tech-alphabet-exclusive/exclusive-google-suspends-some-business-with-huawei-after-trump-blacklist-source-idUSKCN1SP0NB

And I can’t help to see this as taking out competition. It’s no secret that if huawei would be selling in the us they would be the largest smartphone manufacturer.

And in all honesty I never had a phone I liked more that the p20pro and now p30pro. It’s just an amazing device with an awesome camera setup.

So what does this mean?

Well it’s of course very uncertain. Is this just some temporary situation where after discussions a solution is found, or does this mean the end of an amazing product?

It’s know Huawei has they own OS based on Android which is supposed to run much faster and will run “all apps” but in al honesty for me that would probably be question of how many apps will be available. If it’s really all apps I couldn’t care less but if it’s only a selection it would be a major blow I’m afraid

And why?

If you don’t want a brand in your country just put import limits on it like it is now. Putting a “national security” order to google to stop support immediately is in my opinion so over the top that I really can’t draw another conclusion that it’s all about taking out a competitive brand. And that’s a really bad thing to use the option “national security ban”

What do you think?

Is this taking out the competition or is it just to use a ban like this?
