Pros: the yield in general is excellent
Cons: unwatchable hood, evident light infiltration, weight (but justified)
Opinion: Beautiful lens, I am satisfied with it. Taken a bit on a whim, a bit to cancel the boredom of years of "photographic piattume" and try to find stimuli to go out to immortalize something, it really amazed me. I am a little masochistic and I confess to having tried many of these "cinesate", often reselling them without particular patemi. This time, however, I think the matter will go differently, because the lens is really exceptional. You can not ask for a sharpness from edge to edge, nor to use it for architectural photos, we are serious and we use the objects for the purpose hypothesized in the design phase. If you are looking for a surgical lens, turn to something else. If you are looking for a brush to use for your portraits, think about it. The Leica-M mount allows it to be used on all mirrorless cameras in circulation, from Sony to Fuji GFX. I personally use it on Sony, and despite the non-"native" sensor (for those interested in the filter issue I leave it to Google to clear the mind), the results are exceptional. The edges are not particularly sharp, but as far as I have seen it is little to blame on the body, since the defect is also present used on Leica. The center and the half frame, however, are excellent, in my opinion sharp enough to allow portraits even at maximum aperture. We are not obliged to shoot TA with the subject in the center, which unfortunately is present on some Chinese lenses of this type. We are in addition to the various Chinese lenses released in recent years whose photos at maximum aperture were more for whim than for real utility (I am reminded of the 50 1.1 Artisans). The contrast is great and you can churn out the photo without any particular tweaks. The construction is very solid, even too much for my taste. If you do not have a quality adapter, to rotate the rings will dance everything in your hands. I use it with techart pro on Sony and it moves it without problems, but we are at the limits. The aperture yield is not the best, but I personally do not buy a similar lens to use it at f2.8. The only drawback is the extremely limiting light infiltration. The hood is grotesque and truly Machiavellian in use, describing it would be impossible, and I therefore refer to one of the many videos on the tube. If it were just ugly, it would have been fine, the problem is that it does not have the slightest functionality. With a little experience and skills you can still take home the shot, and certainly the "serene" nature of the lens, does not presuppose a dynamic use. You can forgive her all this, in exchange for an almost unique rendering, and comparable to the best portrait lenses I dare say in history. The three-dimensionality is crazy, light years from the various Sigma Art. It reminds me of the Canon 85 1.2, which, however, is endowed with an incredible ability to spoil and get dirty, which led me over time to sell it. What can I say, give it a chance. |
