panasonic_25_f1-7Panasonic Lumix G 25mm f/1.7 ASPH

Pros: Cheap, small and light, crisp with pleasant bokeh

Cons: Nobody. Great value for money

Opinion: We've had it for a couple of years and it's a little must have. Small because it has very small dimensions (61 x 52 mm) as well as weight (only 125 grams). The lens is made almost entirely of plastic, except for the attack, but it does not give us a feeling of poor robustness. It is equipped with the Objective AF Engine (Stepper Motor), it is not stabilized nor tropicalized. It comes with the lampshade, but without any case. We bought one in neoprene, not bulky but useful to repair the lens when we put it in the stock exchange. We use it primarily for portraits and appreciate its sharpness. The best gives it closed at f/2.0, but in any case even at full opening we get excellent results. Thanks to the circular diaphragm with 7 slats, it creates a very pleasant bokeh, allowing us to make the subject stand out well compared to the background. For the price paid (156th Fowa) you can not ask for better and we recommend it without doubt!

7artisans_7-5_f2-87artisans 7.5mm f/2.8 Fisheye

Pros: – Sharp lens already at full opening (f/2,8) that gives the best of itself between f/4 and f/8 – Bokeh very pleasant – Simplicity of focus – Excellent construction, with small size – Cheap

Cons: – Deceinted ghiere (useful for video-takers) that do not resist any involuntary movements while holding the lens – Cap, without pressure lock, which is easily removed when the lens is stored in the backpack /bag. The lampshade (flower type) covers very little the lens and therefore can not keep it safe from possible bumps so we would have liked a cap with a better closure

Opinion: We had the opportunity to try this fisheye lens. We were very curious about the genre so we accepted many willingly to do tests. The lens is quite small in size (63x63mm). But despite its small size, the weight is felt: 275 grams of pure metal. The constructive aspect is undoubtedly one of the merits of this lens. In fact, bayonet and lampshade are metal and you hear it! You have suffered the feeling of robustness and solidity, characteristics that are not easily found in lenses of this price range (usually plastic, although this does not affect the quality of the lenses). The angle of field is 180 degrees on APSC and has a diaphragm consisting of as many as 11 slats. The lampshade, which as we said is made of metal, is embedded in the lens and is not removable. This lens does not support any type of filter. The lens is manual so you have to take a little hand, but thanks to the "focus peaking" function everything becomes easier. In our opinion, the absence of automation is not a defect especially when it allows production costs to be contained, with a reflection on the final price to the consumer. Our opinion is undoubtedly positive. If you are passionate about the genre it is a great solution with good value for money. For our photographic genre, it is not an indispensable lens so in the end we opted for the lighter Olympus 9mm

olympus_m40-150rOlympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 40-150mm f/4-5.6 R

Pros: Cheap, light, great value for money

Cons: None for the cost. The only flaws found: the zooming ring is a bit hard at first and the lack of zoom scrolling block, seen scrolling externally.

Opinion: We tried Zuiko 40-150 because we were looking for a telephoto for our excursions. We preferred it to the brightest brother for a matter of price and especially weight. Paid 120th, weighs only 190 grams and measures 83mm (length) × 63.5mm (diameter). Great to have behind in the mountains for wildlife sighting! It takes up very little space in the backpack. It is not a very bright lens but, used in good light conditions, it makes very pleasant and pleasant shots. Difficult to use indoors if the light conditions are not good. The sharpness is great at 40mm and surprisingly good even at 150mm. We have not noticed any particular chromatic aberrations. However, nothing that cannot be easily corrected. We loved it. You can also get a nice bokeh when you shoot at 100/150mm. In short, there is nothing to be said given the cost of the objective. If we really want to be fiscal, the only flaws are the dial of the zooming is a bit harsh at the beginning and the lack of the zoom scrolling block, seen scrolling externally.
