This is a review of three Canon EF kit lenses. The Canon EF 28-90 f/4-5.6, EF 75-300 f/4-5.6, and EF 75-300 f/4-5.6 USM. These are the two most basic that Canon offers, plus the USM which is a very slight upgrade.
If you have these lenses, I think it's worthwhile to do this test on your own and see how it turns out. My view is that these lenses are quite nice from about 3 feet (1 meter) out to about 20-25 feet (3-4 meters) and then it's acceptable out at infinity or for objects more than 200 yards away or thereabouts. In between that distance, I find them to be very soft. Thanks for watching. Please follow along on Instagram @jkmoore1120Wednesday

SUNRISE and WATERFALL Photography in Shenandoah National Park
In this video, I go on a journey through Shenandoah National Park. I go to South River Falls to photograph the sunrise.

How I Edit Film Scans in Photoshop
In this video I walk through my editing process for the image I posted on Instagram today. This was a difficult image to process because a portion of the image was badly underexposed. I really like how the final product turned out and hope you'll come along with me on the editing journey.

Waterfalls, Landscape Photography, and Silliness in Shenandoah National Park
Today we're going to Shenandoah National Park to get some photos in the snow. I went up there on December 22 on a quick trip because I knew the snow would melt by the weekend after Christmas. I always enjoy going to Shenandoah and see some new stuff every time I go. Come along on this journey with me.

How I Edited My Best Photo of 2020 Using Photoshop
In this video I walk through my editing process for the image I posted on Instagram today. This was a difficult image to process because a portion of the image was badly underexposed. I really like how the final product turned out and hope you'll come along with me on the editing journey. I took this image back in January of 2020...you remember, back before a raging disease shut down the world. This is from Jockey's Ridge State Park in North Carolina. For this I was using the Canon EOS Rebel K2 camera and the basic 28-90 kit lens. This is my favorite image of the year for 2020.
