Reviews of cameras, lenses, tripods, heads and other accessories written by Elio54

The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator.

Zeiss Mutar 2x II (C/Y)

Pros: Usual excellent quality of the brand. Allows with adapter ring to duplicate many old C/Z lenses on Canon EOS digital cameras. It does not regret the lack of automatisms.

Cons: Protruding front lens that on some old analog C/Z lenses does not allow the focus to infinity, unlike the Mutar I.

Opinion: Excellent accessory that makes it still interesting to use analogue lenses, maybe some a bit forgotten, but of quality difficult to overcome. I'm glad I was able to meet, which until several years ago was an impossible dream to those who were not a professional who used it for work. The limits of the loss of automatisms are compensated by the satisfaction of photographing still old way, when the photographs with film were thought before the shooting even for obvious reasons of costs.

Samyang 12mm f/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye

Pros: Excellent lens, light, excellent color rendering and contrast. Distortion more than acceptable for this focal length.

Cons: Unremarkable

Opinion: Great for landscapes, even at night. Brightness, color, contrast and excellent sharpness. It does not feel too the lack of automation. Excellent at all aperture.rnCertamente consigliato.rnUna recommendation to pay CAREFUL: although protected in its fabric bag, with lids properly inserted and positioned in the compartment of the right size of a camera bag, perhaps the inevitable vibrations during transport, the whole of the front lens block is unscrewed and removed from the body. Luckily I noticed it because at the time of taking the bag I heard noises, I screwed the whole thing and nothing happened ... but if he had fallen !! I will contact the 'care to know if you can lock the thread.
