by Chris Gampat
March 12, 2026
The latest trend is blue hour portraiture -- everyone desires it for weddings, headshots, etc. We're so happy that this trend has made a return. The Blue Hour takes the idea of backlighting a portrait and throws it away in favor of placing a subject within the mood. In the Phoblographer's 16 years of testing cameras, lenses and lights, we've made several portraits during the blue hour. And so I'm dipping into our archives to pull images and tutorials that we've done in the past.

by Alberto Lima
March 12, 2026
When Canon launched its RF 45mm F1.2 late last year, it caught many of us by surprise. A big reason for this was the very fast prime, an F1.2 maximum aperture, paired with a seriously affordable price – under $500 USD.

LUMIX 100-500mm f5-7.1 Review: Perfect for Bird Photography
by Chris Gampat
March 11, 2026
Depending on what circle of people I'm talking to, some people consider me more of a birding photographer than a street or portrait photographer. But if you've been reading this site for years, you'd know that most of my photographic work involves people. Admittedly, legal blindness makes bird photography tough at times.
