When it comes to lenses, some outlive others. In the world of mirrorless, that is not as true. While some lenses can become iconic, there are often times when they are chosen to be pushed out of production.

If I didn't have to title things for searchability and understanding the web better, I'd title this review, "Set phasers to stunning."

The year is 2016: and the photography world is in this fascinating place of evolution between DSLRs and mirrorless. And because of that, brands are willing to try new and different things. The brand that really truly was doing something different was Tamron. Today, the brand is known for odd focal lengths that end up working well and lenses with character and reliability that puts everyone else to shame. But in 2016, we saw a version of Tamron that I think wanted to really get in the ring with Canon, Nikon, and Sony. The crazy thing: none of the other reviewers really respected it.

That means that you're going to have to find a way to make your images that much more impactful. It's true, a single photo can get a whole lot more interaction and engagement than a random video with the same AI generated voice and music that you see on social media. So we're doing individual photography portfolio review appointments here at the Phoblographer, and for a pretty affordable price point.

I started to do things that otherwise would seem crazy for a publisher of a niche photography online magazine to do. For starters, this year, the Phoblographer may actually make a printed magazine again. But in addition to that, we didn't sell any ads to the big camera manufacturers. It really showed me that if everyone even gave $1 to read FOR THE YEAR, we'd make enough money to be able to grow and sustain the site for a very, very long time. But that's really tough to ask. Eventually, I'd like to site to move away from needing and relying on banner-ads. Instead, I want the site to go fully super-affordable subscription eventually.
