The Last Post: End of the Road
Today’s Final Post by Joe Farace On January 1 2018, I announced via my Instagram feed—if you’re not following me there please do It’s @joefarace—that I was taking a hiatus from blogging to focus on my personal photography.

First Impressions: Leic...
Today’s Post by Joe Farace I was upstairs when UPS delivered a package so Mary signed for it. I said, “it’s probably the Vario-Elmarit 8-18mm f/2.8-4 lens” to which she replied, “it can’t be a lens because the package is too light.” But it was. It turns out that this lens only weighs...
