Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II Pros: Excellent sharpness already at full aperture, very uniform rendering over the entire frame, compactness and weight finally consistent with travel use, fast and silent autofocus, professional construction, aperture ring, excellent resistance to flare and aberrations, surprising minimum focusing distance for a wide-angle zoom. Cons: Very high price, absence of optical stabilization, expensive 82 mm filters, visible vignetting at f/2.8 and distortion to be corrected via software. It is an extremely correct and modern lens, but precisely for this reason it can be less "characterized" than other more personal lenses. Opinion: The Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II is probably one of the most successful wide-angle zooms available today for the Sony system. Compared to the first version, it takes a clear step forward where it is really needed: it is lighter, more compact, more practical and offers a very high level of image quality, with a convincing rendering already at f/2.8 and very solid edges even on demanding sensors. It is a lens that immediately gives the feeling of being designed to work: landscape, reportage, architecture, interiors, events, travel and video. The 16-35mm focal length is one of the most versatile ever: at 16mm it allows wide and immersive perspectives, while at 35mm it can also be used for ambient, street and detail photography. The minimum focusing distance adds an additional creative possibility, because it allows close-up images with a pleasant blur, which is not a given on a zoom of this type. The performance is very "GM II": clean, precise, contrasty, reliable. It is perhaps not the lens to choose if you are looking for a vintage font or a particular imprint; On the other hand, it is perfect for those who want to take home technically impeccable, sharp, easy-to-work and consistent files in every situation. The autofocus is fast and silent, the aperture ring is very comfortable and the construction fully conveys the idea of a professional product. The flaws are there, but they do not change the overall judgment. It costs a lot, is not stabilized and requires the normal software corrections for vignetting and distortion, especially when working in RAW. But, in real-world use, it remains an extraordinarily reliable lens. For those who use Sony full frame and are looking for the best 16-35mm bright without compromise, it is an almost obligatory choice: expensive, yes, but really excellent. sent on 26 Maggio 2026 |

DJI Mini 5 Pro Pros: Truly amazing image quality for such a compact drone. The 1" sensor makes a big difference, especially in terms of detail, dynamic range and performance in difficult lights. Very clean videos, pleasant colors, excellent stabilization and enormous versatility thanks to the gimbal that allows you to naturally switch from landscape to portrait format. Portability remains one of its strengths: it is a drone that can be taken anywhere without thinking too much. The safety systems, the tracking of the subject and the general flight experience, always intuitive and reassuring, are also very convincing. Cons: The price is not low, especially if you look at the more complete bundles with batteries and accessories. The real range, as always, is lower than that declared under ideal conditions. In the presence of significant wind, however, it remains a light drone, so it cannot completely replace larger and more stable models. Some advanced features require a bit of practice to get really good use. Opinion: The DJI Mini 5 Pro is probably one of the most successful drones in the Mini series: it manages to combine almost "pro" image quality, very small size and a simplicity of use that makes it suitable for both those who want to travel light and those looking for a serious tool for photos and videos. The performance of the 1" sensor is the real leap in quality: the images have more depth, more hold in the highlights and a general cleanliness that before, on such a small drone, it was difficult to imagine. I like it above all because it never gives the feeling of being a compromise: it is small, but not "limited". It turns on, takes you flying quickly, follows the subject well, allows modern vertical shots and produces very convincing files. Sure, it costs and remains physically a Mini, so it's not the ideal drone for extreme conditions or sustained winds. But for travel, landscape, social content, light reportage and creative shooting it is an excellent, mature and very pleasant product to use. A true concentrate of technology, with few flaws and a lot of substance. sent on 25 Maggio 2026 |

Leica Q3 Pros: Excellent image quality, very resolute sensor and rich, workable DNG files with a typical Leica rendering. The Summilux 28mm lens is simply super: sharp, bright, three-dimensional and capable of delivering images with great character. The Q3 is a practical, immediate, always ready camera: you can take it anywhere and really encourage you to photograph. Clear menus, clean interface and, with the latest firmware updates, the user experience is further improved: smoother navigation, more intuitive handling and a greater feeling of general maturity. Excellent build quality, solid body, precise controls, magnificent design. Cons: The price is very high, as Leica imposes a bit on all its products: it is not a camera for those looking for the best price/performance ratio in an absolute sense. The magnesium body is beautiful and gives a great feeling of quality, but it tends to mark and scratch with some ease, an aspect to consider if you are very attentive to aesthetics. The 28mm fixed lens requires awareness: it's a wonderful choice, but not for everyone. Opinion: The Leica Q3 is a camera that must be understood more than compared only on the technical sheet. Its value lies not only in the megapixels, in the optics or in the build quality, all aspects of the highest level, but above all in the user experience. It is practical, essential, quick to use and capable of removing distractions between the photographer and the scene. The image quality is extraordinary: detail, colors, dynamic range and rendering of the Summilux 28mm return files of great personality, with that Leica feeling that is difficult to describe but easy to recognize. Compared to previous versions, the latest firmware updates have made the machine even more enjoyable: more modern menus, a more consistent interface, better operational management and an overall feeling of a more refined product. It is a premium full-frame compact that manages to be both a professional tool and an object to be used for pure photographic pleasure. It costs a lot, and this remains its most obvious limit. But if you accept the Leica philosophy, the Q3 offers a rare combination of quality, simplicity, portability and pleasure of use. It's not just an excellent camera – it's a camera that makes you want to go out and photograph. sent on 25 Maggio 2026 |

Sony A7r V Pros: Its main strengths lie in its exceptional 61-megapixel sensor, which offers superb detail, wide dynamic range and enormous crop flexibility, combined with a highly precise AI autofocus system and access to a vast ecosystem of optics. Cons: The most obvious limitations concern a battery life only sufficient for intense use, the absence of 4K video recording at 120fps and a marked rolling shutter that can penalize the burst in very fast action scenes. Noise at high ISO is present but is nowadays almost totally manageable with programs in post (e.g. the function on Lightroom). Menu to improve, too many abbreviations and an unintuitive structure.
