ttartisan_100bubble_bokehTTArtisan 100mm f/2.8 Bubble Bokeh

Pros: Sturdy aircraft-grade aluminum construction, low weight and size, honest shots that are still worth the money spent on the purchase

Cons: No electrical dialogue with the camera, no stabilization, no Exif, minimum focus distance 90 cm

Opinion: Picked up today in the shop, obviously the one with screw connection 42, I ran home and, mounted on the Z6 II with K&F Concept adapter, I tried several shots on the terrace of the house with different times and apertures both in backlight and in direct light. Not even the shadow of the flaunted "bubbles" effect but only a background with normal blur, albeit very pleasant. Probably, I'll make a mistake, or I'll need special shooting conditions and/or precautions ... Has anyone tried it? Thus, without having yet achieved the effect for which it is advertised, I attribute a skimpy sufficiency: 6.0/10; if I get the famous 'Bubble Bokeh' the rating will definitely increase. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today, November 26th, I finally managed to get on several shots... the background with the famous 'bubbles'! I caught the rays of the sun grazing on the terrace of the house and the lens did the rest; The result is eye-catching! Therefore, as promised, I raised the score, previously assigned, to 8. Here's one of the pics I posted here on juza: https://www.juzaphoto.com/galleria.php?l=it&t=4677043

nikon_z180-600Nikon Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR

Pros: Solid and robust construction, small size and weight for a lens like this, internal zoom and focus mechanisms, VR optical stabilization integrated into the lens, remarkable sharpness at all focal lengths, excellent value for money, compatibility with 1.4x and 2x teleconverters with Z mount (even if this involves reducing the aperture by one or two f/stops).

Cons: None, taking into account the relatively 'cheap' cost compared to other Nikon lenses. The exception is the case not up to the product.

Opinion: Purchased a few days ago, I took some shots from the terrace of the house waiting to test it on birds and also on the moon: The first impressions are all positive (as indicated in the Pro section) and even the freehand use was well manageable with an excellent lens / camera balance. In my opinion, it deserves a score of 9.6/10

nikon_16fisheyeNikon AF 16mm f/2.8 D Fisheye

Pros: High-level lens, light and not very shaded but robust construction. Sharpness and flare resistance,

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Purchased back in 1995, I still find it an excellent lens despite the many years since it came out. It is mainly recommended for architectural and interior photography but can also be used to create particular and unusual images. Very light and space-saving fits in a pocket! It almost looks like a toy, but it is not: it returns great and impressive photos.

nikon_z40_f2Nikon Z 40mm f/2

Pros: Exceptional price/performance ratio. Sharpness. Tropicalization.

Cons: Nothing taking into account the above. To look for the classic hair in the egg, good autofocus but not a splinter; lack of a dedicated hood included in the package.

Opinion: I bought before Christmas the Nikkor Z 40/2 and I must say immediately that, after three months, the judgment is very positive and overall satisfies me. The focal length of 40 mm you have to get used to, being about halfway between the most "normal" focal lengths of 35 mm and 50 mm that photographers are used to but, after a first use, you get used to it immediately (at least so it was for me). Very convenient price and also the relationship with the performance that is obtained; therefore, the "quarrel" about the "plasticity" of the construction is useless. Optically it is very sharp in the center practically on the entire frame, even when shooting at f/2; the performance at the edges is, however, optimal from f/4 to f/11. The best total results are obtained at f 5.6 - 8 Beautiful blurry. When I go out with the camera without a precise target, I have always mounted it and it pays off in terms of lightness, small footprint and - if necessary - brilliant performance. In short, a compact and lightweight lens ideal as a main walking lens or as a light second lens.

nikon_z105mc_vrNikon Z MC 105mm f/2.8 VR S

Pros: Breathtaking performance on different photographic genres: from portrait to landscape, up to macro/close up where the 1:1 factor makes it reach a fantastic detail. Absence of aberrations and distortions. Af doesn't miss a beat. Objective that can not be missing in the kit of the professional and the advanced amateur photographer

Cons: Don't have it

Opinion: Bought a few days ago, I'm still testing it but the results achieved so far have excited me. Superior to the counterpart F and Sigma of equal focal length and aperture. It is a lens with important dimensions such as its performance, measuring 85 mm x 140 mm, for a total weight of 630 grams, resulting reliable and well balanced. In my opinion, to put it in summary, Nikon has churned out a sumptuous lens!

viltrox_af85_f1-8fe_iiViltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 II

Pros: Metal construction, beautiful; blurry, sharpness, very competitive price, fast AF

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: This morning I purchased this objective recommended to me by Mr. Guido di Ottica Universitaria here in Rome with whom I befriended after purchasing the Nikon Z6 II bodysuit from his store. By telephone, he had explained to me the merits of this perspective by inviting me to go to the store to evaluate in person. Well, he was right! Meanwhile, the lens is well packed in a double heavy cardboard package, accompanying there are a small pocket of microfiber, a sheet with instructions in English, a card for registering the warranty. Solid construction and really well made all in metal, including flange; heavy, I think, the right. From the few test shots the lens was very very responsive in the very precise and at the same time silent focus; truly sharpness at the highest levels and splendid boken. I do not think we can expect any more than this price!

zeiss_jena-tessar_50_f2-8Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f/2.8

Pros: Very compact and light, remarkable quality even for the present day, beautiful bokeh even with "soap bubbles", excellent readability of lights and shadows, very intense colors.

Cons: Nothing, given the palious cost for a goal!

Opinion: Recently bought, in black version with screw attack 42, at a few tens of euros, surprised me pleasantly. High resolution especially central but starting at f/5.6, under that diaphragm is relatively soft. It provides excellent results in closed diaphragms macro shots (mounted inverted or with classic extension tubes), for its performance in the finest details. A miscousation for a few euros that pays off a lot in terms of satisfaction!

nikon_d850Nikon D850

Pros: All

Cons: Nothing basically. Wanting to split the hair, in live view does not behave very well, remaining a step behind the Dual Pixel system of Canon ... but we're really finding the straw in the eye...

Opinion: at a time when mirrorless people are gusting to establish themselves as "The Cameras" tout court, I chose it again and regained it after the theft of the one I had before. Not surprisingly, at the official presentation, it was christened with the motto "I am the difference", that is, "I am the one that makes the difference". The Nikon D850 encompasses all the current top of the Japanese company's technology concentrated in a single camera partly borrowing it from the flagship D5; compared to the D810, it was a real quantum leap. I do not dwell on the technical features now archnote, I emphasize how the image quality is superb at low ISO and how, with optimal light, the Nikon D850 offers performance close to the "medium format". The color range is amazing, the colors exceptional, the sharpness surprising, both in portraits and in landscapes. IN SHORT, A CAMERA THAT REPRESENTS A MILESTONE OF NIKON HOUSE AND BEYOND!
