"No matter what camera you use—the main thing is that you shoot!"

apertureonepointfour, 2020 ​

Welcome! This space is dedicated to exploring the fascinating world of cameras, lenses, and photographic gear—all through the lens of a dedicated collector with a deep-rooted passion for both the art of photography and the technology behind it.

 

"It’s not the gear, it’s the finger on the shutter."

apertureonepointfour, 2025

Wondering where the name comes from? It’s a nod to two of my all-time favorite lenses: the classic Canon New FD 50mm f/1.4 and the razor-sharp Sigma Art 40mm f/1.4 for Sony E-mount. ​

 

My journey into photography began way back in 1982 when I picked up my first camera at the age of 11. Over four decades later, the spark is as bright as ever.

I love sharing my hands-on experiences, tips, and reviews with the community—both on my YouTube channel @apertureonepointfour and directly here on my website. Glad to have you here!


Hey man are you crazy Do you take photos with a digital camera and use flash lamps ?!
Yes, I am!!! It's funny, it's crazy and it's a real head turner !!!

But watch out! Never connect flash lamps directly to your digital camera! Your camera's electronics could be damaged.
