Mit dem NYA-EVO FJORD 60-C und dem FJORD 36 habe ich meine perfekten Outdoor-Rucksäcke sowohl für kürzere Makrofotografie Fieldtrips, als auch für längere Reisen, gefunden. Was die NYA-EVO FJORD Serie so besonders und die funktionalen Rucksäcke zu einem wahren Raumwunder macht, erfahrt ihr in diesem ausführlichen Praxis-Test bzw. Review mit einem...
Wildlife macro photography brings you up-close with fascinating inhabitants of nature. Reaching magnifications beyond the classic 1:1 uncovers details and textures that are usually invisible to the naked eye. However, as we are photographing agile, and often very tiny creatures, it is crucial to nail perfect focus on them. Different photographic scenarios require...
Macro photography is more than just photographing objects or animals up-close and with high magnification. While it can still be considered a niche, there is an incredible richness to both techniques/approaches and the selection of subjects. This also means, there is no single best approach, there is no limitation when it comes...
With their ability to create automated focus stacks and focus brackets, the OM SYSTEM cameras have an absolute luxury function for macro photography on board and can save you an incredible lot of time. At the same time, the automated process increases accuracy, workflow speed and your success rate. One of the...
For my personal approach to macro photography at high magnifications, the OM SYSTEM cameras are my preferred tools, but WHY do I actually LOVE them? I have been shooting with 3 generations of OM SYSTEM (formerly Olympus) cameras now - coming from a Canon full-frame setup. It has always been my intention,...
Learning from inspiration and examples Inspiration is generally a good thing: seeing the work of others gives you an impression on what can be done in that field, and also how broad the creative and technical range of execution is. Getting an overview of this range provides both an idea of what...

On the 29th of January 2026 (which is today, when I started writing this review) LAOWA released their 90mm f2.8...
Another flash has found its way into my backpack and in the following review we will take a look at how the Ulanzi SL03 Spark Lite performs. I am a big fan of Olympus´ FL-LM3 mini flash (read my FL-LM3 review here), which is even smaller than the Ulanzi SL03 Spark...
If you see it for the first time, the FL-LM3 literally looks like a toy, almost like a miniature version of a "real" flash. At less than golf ball size, this is probably the smallest flash I have ever had in my hand. Since I am using a flash for macro photography...
In über 15 Jahren aktiven Fotografierens haben sich bei mir eine Menge Kameras, Objektive, Blitze, Stative und exotisches Fotozubehör angesammelt. Während die häufig genutzen Teile meist zwischen 2 versch. Fotorucksäcken wechseln, ist der seltener benötigte Rest auf diverse Kisten und Koffer im Keller, sowie Schrankfächer verteilt...
