![]() | Viltrox AF 33mm f/1.4 Pros: Brightness, price, metal lampshed, image quality, ultrasonic autofocus Cons: Chromatic aberrations up to f/2, tendency to purple, declied diaphragm ring Opinion: It's a fantastic lens, it's made great since all the time, even though it's not very sharp at f/1.4, but it's there. Welcome the lampshon, well built and made of metal. It has a very good AF, very quiet and fluid, at least for me who use it for photos, for video I did some tests and it performs well, but I did not try it thoroughly. There is some flaw to live with, the most annoying is the chromatic aberration, visible up to f/2, but manageable with two clicks on lightroom, as well as the trend on purple. One thing I'll never get used to is the declied diaphragm ring, apparently useful for those who make videos, but the diaphragm still moves to stop thirds, so it's just annoying for those taking photos. In conclusion, it is a lens to have, especially at this price. sent on January 30, 2021 |
![]() | Panasonic Lumix 42.5mm f/1.7 OIS Pros: Color rendering, focal, iris aperture, sharpness, size, stabilization Cons: price, compared to his cousin Olympus, minimum focus distance Opinion: Let me say that I love this focal point, because it makes you see street photography differently than the classic 35 or 50mm. Despite being a portrait lens, I didn't test it for a portrait, but I mainly use it for the street or close-ups to my dogs, what to say, the yield is great, the colors are great, the bokeh is as soft as you would expect from an f/1.7 lens. It also has great sharpness all over the frame, you don't miss much on the edges. It is also stabilized, which his Cousin of Olympus cannot boast (although olympus has a better price to his advantage). If it had also had a lower focus distance than 31cm, it would have been a best buy, but even so it is a great purchase if you have a Panasonic camera (lens stabilization works together with sensor stabilization on Panasonic, while on Olympus you don't). If you have an Olympus, I recommend you take the Olympus counterpart, save yourself a little and you have a very similar focal point. sent on January 17, 2021 |
![]() | Panasonic Lumix GX1 Pros: Compactness, construction, materials, grip, raw quality, beautiful to see, great AF, stereo microphone, sensor that still defends well, hot shoe sled Cons: one ring, even a little hard, non-tiltable display, EVF still expensive Opinion: Found at less than 80 euros and taken as a second room for all the times when I did not want to bring my bag the "big" camera, this little old lady still defends herself very well. It has a 16 megapixel sensor in 4/3 micro format, which is enough, although not many at times. The yield is great, even in JPEG, but what surprised me the most is the malleability of RAW, really very good, for the age it has. It also has excellent speed in the AF, almost in line with current models, although it obviously does not have the same focus points and accuracy. The mode ring is classic, but I really liked the button dedicated to automatic mode, since every now and then I happen to have the settings busted and having to take a photo quickly. What I didn't like about this room is the ring with which to adjust the parameters, it is single and to change the parameter to be changed it must be pressed, in short not really very comfortable. The display is a resistive touchscreen, not much by definition and touch sensitivity, but for a battle machine I make it go well anyway. The camera was sold by new bundled with the 14-42 pancake and the EVF in kit. If the lens is easily found in the second-hand market, the viewfinder is not, and those few that are on sale cost so much, and it is not an expense worth facing today. In conclusion it is a great second room, for excursions or for the street, but do not expect to be able to use it as the main camera, because its ailves have them, but despite this it still defends itself sufficiently well. sent on January 17, 2021 |
![]() | Olympus OM-D E-M1 Pros: Full of programmable keys, tropicalization, stabilization, RAW quality, vast optical park, autofocus, price on used. Cons: High ISO management, JPEG quality, new price, awkward settings menu, grip for those with big hands like me, low sensor resolution Opinion: It is the second micro 4/3 camera I purchased, the first was a lower-end Panasonic, but newer. This Olympus is built like a tank, it is almost indestructible, tropicalization is also felt on weight, although it is not excessively large or heavy (indeed, with my hand the little finger remains out of the handle, and is often uncomfortable). The photo quality is great, even today in 2021, if taken in RAW and not at more than 1600 ISO. Autofocus is crazy, although by today's standards it doesn't have many MaF points. Its strength side is a hybrid AF, with both phase and contrast detection, also for this reason it is possible to mount with the appropriate adapter all olympus reflex 4/3 optics and use them as native, native optics that are many and there are for all tastes and price ranges. Another thing I really like about this room is the amount of programmable keys, they are really many and allow you to "sew the machine on you", but good luck if you want to understand something about how to set them, given that the menu is set very badly and translated even worse, on par if not worse than the first Sony mirrorless. The sensor is a 16 megapixel, it's fine for social media or regular prints, but if you want a bigger print or want to crop the photos, they become few. Also exceeded the 1600 ISO the files that this camera produces are almost unusable, especially JPEG, the RAW is recoverable, but do not expect a good level of detail. I will conclude by saying that if you buy it used on the 350/400 euros it is absolutely worth it, it is an excellent room to have something more compact than a reflex, but equally quality and resistant, perhaps alongside a beautiful fixed lens open, it will give you a lot of satisfaction. sent on January 09, 2021 |
![]() | Panasonic Lumix G 25mm f/1.7 ASPH Pros: Brightness, price, sharpness, lightness, construction (plastic, but it's solid) Cons: Autofocus not excelled especially in poor light, focal Opinion: I bought this lens because I needed a bright companion for my slow kit. For the price it has is excellent: in fact it offers excellent brightness, beautiful colors and a very good sharpness. But it's not all gold that glitters. Although I was aware before the purchase that it is an equivalent 50mm on FF, I wanted to try this focus again perhaps to think again after the negative experience of a 35mm on APS-C Canon. I confirm what I thought initially: I don't like the 50mm. But these are personal tastes, it's not really a lens flaw. The biggest flaw I've found with this lens is the low light focus. Despite its excellent brightness of f/1.7, it occasionally gives up and fails to focus. In conclusion if you are a lover of 50mm or want a bright and inexpensive optic, this is for you. If you have a higher budget, take the Panaleica 25 f/1.4. sent on May 28, 2020 |
![]() | Panasonic Lumix G Vario 12-32mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS Pros: Compactness, focus, sharpness, price to be used Cons: Price from new, brightness, plastic bayonet, lack of manual MaF dial Opinion: A good slow kit, very compact, goes well with cameras like Panasonic's GX series or Olympus' PEN series. The focus that you reach with this lens in my opinion is more than good for a travel use or for a photo amateur. The quality is also surprising: great for non-professional use, also because it is not really bright and at night it is difficult to get good shots to an acceptable ISO. I recommend buying it on used Ebay, since the price of the new in my opinion is excessive. sent on May 28, 2020 |
![]() | Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/1.8 Pros: Focal, lightness, brightness, sharpness, autofocus, MaF's dial Cons: For sale without paraluce (personally not a big flaw since I do not use it), stabilization not present (but present in the bodies Olympus machine) Opinion: I've been using the 4/3 micro format for almost a year and I have to say that I really like it. I needed a 35mm equivalent as this is my favorite focal and this Olympus did not disappoint me in the slightest. Small, light, crisp and bright, this lens is the one I hold most attached to my machine body. It doesn't disappoint at full-time, retaining a great bokeh and excellent sharpness. I also love the maf's dial, with which you can select the manual MaF or the autofocus simply by pulling it up or down. The only flaw I have encountered is stabilization not present, since my machine body is a Panasonic that does not have the sensor stabilized, but it is nothing problematic, given the fairly short focus. In conclusion in my opinion it is a must have if you have a 4/3 micro set. sent on May 28, 2020 |
