Eric Anderson: Karakol Peak from Karakol Valley, Kyrgyzstan. Many tourists start to head up Karakol Valley but turn towards Ala Kol Lake before getting up the valley far enough to see this view. If you come this way, keep heading up the valley to see the biggest peaks in the area. Fuji X-E2, 14mm, f 2/8, 35 stacked exposures. www.ericandtaylor.com.

Modula Optical just launched a Kickstarter campaign to their newly developed lens, the CM33, a pancake style 33mmF2 lens.
The CM33 also has a range of modular upgrade options, like the one they call “Mods” — special optical elements (filters, lenses, etc.) that can be inserted into the middle of the lens near the aperture stop, rather than screwed on the front ring.
If you’re interested, you can take a look at their Kickstarter campaign page, as well as a press release. Modula Optical is offering a very limited number of CM33 lenses at a significant “earlybird” discount for those who back them early.

Over the last years, the terrific quality of Fujinon lenses has been awarded many times. These recognitions are no surprise for X-shooters, who use these lenses on a daily basis. It is actually the main reason why we bought into the X-system (so says the FR-Poll taken by Fujifilm and displayed to the press).
But the challange now for Fujfilm is to improve, what is already amazing… and with the XF90mmF2 WR lens, Fuji won this challange. It is a spectacular lens. The best Fujinon lens so far.
That’s why imaging-resource, when they declared the best prime of 2015, said:
“There was no debate in our discussion for the Best Prime Lens of 2015 – it was a one-horse raceand the Fujinon 90mm f/2 was that horse. […] this lens is the new king of sharpness [… ] a rare case of one’s jaw dropping when looking at a blur chart!”
The choice for the best zoom was much harder, with three zooms conteding the Award. At the end it goes to the Canon 11-24mmF4 L, and the second place to the Fuji XF50-140mmF2.8 (now $200 0ff).
