![]() | TTArtisan APS-C 25mm f/2 Pros: Construction, materials, optical performance even at TA, pleasant and fluid ring, diaphragms with clicks perceptible well. Inviting price, almost a must-have Cons: Missing f/11... the ring goes just over infinity, I can't use the hyperfocal Opinion: Well built, solid, small and bright. I was looking for a lens like this, and I thought of the Fujifilm 27. But the high price, even second-hand, made me lose the desire to have a lens for outings without particular photographic destinations. But I liked to have a travel and light optic. This is for me, but with some caveats: the shot at f/11 is missing, it goes from 8 to 16 directly. It may not seem like a problem, but when there is a lot of light it becomes one as you have to get to 16, or shorten the shutter speed a lot. It is not always said that it is what you want to get in the photo, but you just have to get the hang of it and in 90% of cases I think you can be satisfied, also by virtue of the decidedly ridiculous price. What bothered me the most, but which I sincerely hope to solve through some repairing photos, is the fact that the infinity focus does not coincide precisely with the reference on the barrel, but goes slightly further. This involves fine-tuning so that the image is not slightly blurry. Another thing that I don't know if it derives directly from this, is that despite having a very well done distance scale and a ring that slides pleasantly, putting the lens in hyper focal I don't get anything in focus. Strangely, this for a medium wide-angle, but if the internal adjustments are not optimal this is likely to occur. I trust in some technicians, also because I have had them for less than a week, and I still have to get the hang of them. But overall I am very satisfied with it. A little attention is enough to bring home excellent results. A warning for those who view photographs with the Windows Photos app: in the Raw you can see colored artifacts, don't be scared because when you open the image in Photoshop they disappear completely.

![]() | Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN C Pros: Lightweight, not bulky, sharp, non-vignette Cons: Nobody Opinion: I've owned it for about two months, and I've already taken a lot of photos of it, from some set portraits, to a bit of street, and mainly architecture, albeit on the road. This was the purpose that decided to buy it, first of all, to be able to use it to take cues and glimpses that would be difficult to obtain otherwise, and to minimize falling lines as much as possible. Of course, if you don't level it perfectly, the deformations will appear, but they can certainly be corrected in post-production. Another thing that really surprised me in a positive way, is that it doesn't even vignette at full opening. It's not just because it's a recent acquisition, but I have to say that I replaced it a few other times during a cruise I did in April. I had the 18-55, and the 35 1.4 to choose from... And it continues. Maybe it's because my type of photography, in this period, prefers a certain type of subject. The fact is that for what it costs, and for what it yields, combined with a truly negligible size and weight, it is a lens that ensures satisfaction. sent on May 17, 2024 |
