nikon_z40_f2Nikon Z 40mm f/2

Pros: Lightweight, compact does what you don't expect, really great

Cons: Nothing to report

Opinion: The focal length is interesting, it is a real all-rounder. excellent rendering and colors, It is always in the bag and helps on many occasions. To those who complain that it has something plasticky cheap I answer with only 2 comments: the photos are taken with the lenses and not by touch, and with the price of the 50 f 1.8 or the 35 f 1.8 you buy 3 !! lens hood? you can find plenty on Ecommerce sites starting from 10 € (the one that starts with A..) . Autofocus not a lightning bolt but more than enough for portraits, street and landscapes, of course you don't make birdlife with it (but only because it's too short Hahaha). Really bad not to have it

voigtlander_ultron75_f1-9Voigtlander Ultron 75mm f/1.9

Pros: Compact, light, excellent resolution already at full aperture and excellent bokeh, including lens hood.

Cons: At the moment none

Opinion: I was looking for a short telephoto for Leica, without bleeding myself. I already had excellent experience of Voigtlander and had no doubts. The first results confirm my expectations. Already at f1.9 it has a very good resolution and a fascinating creamy blur. Also used on Nikon Z6 (1a), manual focusing very easy Clicked apertures and precise and smooth rings. NB I have the SC version which for the analog BN is the top, but also on the digital color the rendering is fascinating.

zeiss_zm_biogon_21_f2-8Zeiss ZM Biogon T* 21mm f/2.8

Pros: build quality, lens yield, weight and bulk

Cons: Absolutely none (maybe just that they don't give the lens hood and you have to buy it on big e-Commerce sites)

Opinion: Fantastic optics, light, compact, very well built, a pleasure to use. But the pleasure grows when you look at the images: I use it on Leca M film and on Nikon Z6: warm and vibrant colors, superb resolution, and beautifully correct: zero distortions, you don't need PP, CA and non-existent weird reflections. Obviously, at that width a little vignetting is normal, correctable and contained, the manual maf is not a problem: you always have everything in focus. For those who love wide-angle lenses it is ideal, in short, it is worth all the money it costs.

voigtander_40_f1-4Voigtlander VM Nokton 40mm f/1.4 SC

Pros: Build quality, yield, lightness, price: in short, everything

Cons: Two small flaws: difficult to focus vertically, and the hood is missing.

Opinion: I wanted a small bright compact a little narrower than the 28, both for the Z6 and for the analog Leica M, this 40 intrigued me: right compromise between the 35 and the 50. Having already the Leica Elmarit 28 f2.8, for street outings and travel I wanted to pair a similar but narrower optics. I chose it for the reviews and for the price and I assure you it does not make me regret the Leica. A little' soft and vignette a little' to TA, (corrects in PP), as soon as you close at 2.8 becomes excellent at 5.6-8 a blade really. I don't do numerical tests, I don't count the lines, I just need the result when I shoot: wonderful. Good contrast from F4 onwards, I do not see chromatic aberrations, excellent performance even at night, with lights, reflections and shop windows. In short, 1000 times happy and satisfied with the choice, I would never take it out of the car. Of course in its compactness you have to be careful with the MAF and Aperture commands that are close: you get used to it. Vertically the focus is more difficult because the tab is all to the ds and if you focus with the left (and hold the camera with the ds) you get bad and the hands interfere. But it's really stupid, maybe even here it's just a matter of finding the right movements. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. In the side backlight it suffers a bit, but they are really extreme conditions, I speak of side light because in the direct backlight nothing to say.

nikon_z14-30_f4sNikon Z 14-30mm f/4 S

Pros: Weight, compactness, sharpness, flat front lens to be able to mount filters

Cons: Collapsible

Opinion: I've tried it thoroughly these days, especially at EICMA: exceptional sharpness at the edges, no distosion (correct in the car? could be, but you don't notice anything). Light and compact is handy, the flat front lens that allows the mounting of filters (polarizer or UV protection) is excellent. In short, really good. I am puzzled by the fact that it is collapsible: closing it and reopening it is inconvenient and for a long time I fear it can become a source of games. But it's a small price compared to the many merits. I had 28 others before (true that they were f. 2.8) but there is no comparison as results, even compared to the noble and expensive and heavy Nikkor .

leica_d-lux7Leica D-LUX 7

Pros: Light, compact, quiet, great very bright lens, fast focus, image quality and colors

Cons: Perhaps like the "sister" Panasonic would need a slight handle, missing the orientable monitor.

Opinion: I have the Z6 with several optics, new dedicated and old with adapter, but for the street I was looking for a lighter and more discreet machine, I chose the D-LUX7. Love at first sight and love even stronger after use. The brightness of the lens and, of course, the quality is exceptional. MAF fast and precise. The bokeh is gorgeous. I was afraid of the M4/3 sensor (after previous disappointments), it does a great job and the files are great already in JPG, especially if you are dedicated to adjusting first the quality and output tone you want, the AWS are easily workable, great (better than the NIKON) system connecting to mobile phone and tablet and remote lysing and file transfer. In short, a jewel that does not make me regret the FF, although I have yet to learn how to use it to the fullest. Of course some negligible "gap" there is : it would have cost little a orientable display : the photos from below or from above are not precise, the battery does not last much (250 shots about a little more if you are careful), but 250 shots are many anyway and a spare battery costs little and weighs nothing (it's small , you almost risk losing it in your pocket), and finally even if they talk about exceptional sensitivities, I will not exceed from 3200 ISO (6400 if I'm desperate): in these cases the FF z6 is higher, but it's different use and if I go back I'd do it again 100 times.

7artisans_m35_f27artisans M35mm f/2

Pros: Construction, lightness, price

Cons: Strong Sharp Fall at Edges

Opinion: Pack and build really great: solid, fluid ghieres, you use that is a pleasure. Light and compact on the camera and with very comfortable controls. I use it on both the Leica M4 film and nikon Z6 with the adapter : And a real pleasant surprise the result in the center (FF). The defect, common I read , to other lenses of the same house, is that at the edges you feel a sharp drop of sharpness and the image is a little kneaded. But I would say only at the edges, the edges are good. Beware though: the defect is less serious in the common use of what it seems: much depends on what photographers, the grass of a lawn for example points out the defect, a sky or a wall or the sea endure very well. A little flare in the evening light, good stars of direct lights. But for that price !!! It lacks the sunshade but on the bay are located cheap.

hasselblad_500cmHasselblad 500 C/M

Pros: Everything from construction to the final image

Cons: Create dependency

Opinion: It is not a tip and snaps (trivial observation), it really forces you to think, but the use becomes a rite almost a religion. Then it's hard to miss photos, not because it's easy to do the opposite: it's so hard, it forces you so much to think that you can't not care about the image (also because an unprinted shot, just roller and development - in the lab not in the house - costs about 1.5 euros , equal to 9 euros per roller). It's cumbersome and heavy, you probably don't go to street (let's discuss it, class is not fast, it takes a slowed street), but the results.

nikon_z6Nikon Z6

Pros: Stabilizer, size and weight, image quality, display, sensitivity and high ISO hold, WiFi for remote control very effective

Cons: For now none (at least for My pictures), but the optical park is still incomplete, even if they are working. Too bad they hinder third party manufacturers (Sigma-Tamron Tokina etc)

Opinion: I have it for 2 months and I really used it, day and night. He never cheated on me and it's easy to carry around and discreet. I have no dedicated optics, I wait to buy the 14-30, I will keep you informed. Use with FTZ adapter with 150 Sigma f2 Macro,8 (fast and precise focusing), COM 50 mm f. 1.4 AF-S G, col 20 mm f 3.6 AI-S, and 35 PC 2.8 (decentrable). No problem, even with the 20 mm is more compact than with the dedicated. Then use with Leica (or almost) manual optics: 35 mm f 2.0 7Artisan (good but loses a bit to the edges), and Col 90 F 2 Summicron and 135 f 2.8 Elmar. Spectacular. Even the manual focus with the peaking Focus and magnification and brightness of the monitor/viewfinder system is quick and easy (but I'm older and I come from the manuals of the past). Only difficulty (but you have to shake hands) the MAF with avifauna: I can not keep the birds that depart quickly with the chase, while it is fine with the sports photo. Battery: With two batteries I make about 900-1000 shots in short, I've freed myself from Reflex, and it's one of the best ML I've had and tried. And then the FF!!!
