The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Panasonic Lumix G X 35-100mm f/2.8 Pros: weight, dimensions, build quality , af , Cons: Maybe just the lens hood which aesthetically is not beautiful Opinion: A lens that makes you wonder why the whole m4/3 world has not been designed with the exact same criteria. I don't understand why make a version 2 without any improvement and above all make it go out of production almost immediately. In my opinion Pana should have pushed everything on this line of lenses on all focal lengths. Since I joined m43 I have changed many lenses and cameras but this one I can never find a valid reason to give it up and update it. I often want to switch to the Olympus 40-150 which is a lens out of all logic, extraordinary, but honestly when I compare weights and dimensions I get through every idea. This 35-100 in practice you always carry it with you even in a shoulder bag and the performance is spectacular, I do not find defects of any kind. The only small drawback I see is in the lens hood, a "cheap" in terms of aesthetics not so much in terms of materials or functionality, but it is a really more than negligible defect. It has a very soft rendering while maintaining really high definition and detail, suitable for everything from portrait to landscape and in any case I repeat its strength is the form factor. sent on January 09, 2025 |
 | Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM Pros: Almost none unless you use it only for pleasure Cons: Totally unreliable MAF, sharpness only when closed beyond unacceptable limits Opinion: A lens that potentially returns excellent shots, but in practice it is a lottery. It is good only if you use it constantly in manual if you want the certainty of bringing home the shots, if you rely on the AF greetings. Tested on 5DMKIII and 5DMKIV nothing to do even with micro-adjustment . When you get the focus right, on the other hand, it returns really pleasant colors, saturation, contrast and microcontrast. I smile when I read reviews that talk about "excellent lens" and then say that to have sharpness you have to close at least to f8...... So how should a lens behave in order to be considered poor? be sharp from f16 to f22 and that's it ? I understand both a portrait lens and anything else, but honestly thinking of always shooting with the anxiety of not having the subject in focus becomes very frustrating. resold time zero sent on December 11, 2024 |
 | Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 9mm f/1.7 ASPH Pros: All Cons: Nothing Opinion: An 18mm equivalent F1.7 in the weight of a few peanuts and the bulk of a tissue pack, with precise and fast MAF. Sharp enough and with a very interesting minimum distance to get very close shots. In short, for the price at which it is proposed, I would say that it cannot and should not be missing in an m4/3 kit. Basically you think you don't want to carry it around and then you end up that given its size, you always find a hole in your backpack. For those who talk about "cons" regarding the construction, honestly I don't agree, it's true it's plastic, but you can perceive that it's a high-level plastic, moreover it's precisely this that gives it its typical lightness which is the real strong point. Regarding chromatic aberrations, I personally find them well manageable in PP, at least with DXO Photolab. The lens hood is a bit difficult to attach and unhook but even it in my opinion despite being plastic is solid. The distortion and vignetting are clearly present but totally managed properly by the DXO correction profiles, I don't know with other software. sent on November 27, 2024 |
 | Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS USM Pros: size, quality, robustness, speed and precision Maf beautiful, compact, light vignette as needed to make the photos even more beautiful Cons: not received Opinion: Now I no longer use Canon Reflex , but sometimes if I think back to that kit the lens that I regret most is this. Bought too late to enjoy it to the fullest, but every now and then I would want to buy an old 5D just to be able to mate this lens. The fact that it has gone out of production and that they have not made a whole series of fixtures of this type says a lot. I am convinced that they did not do them because they knew that many would gladly give up the red line without too many thoughts. If you have canon SLRs, buy it and try it regardless of any other lens you have in your backpack. sent on November 11, 2022 |
 | Panasonic Lumix G Vario 12-32mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS Pros: Lightweight compact and does what it should Cons: No one buys it as a lightweight and portable kit lens to accompany more valuable lenses when needed if needed. Opinion: If taken at the right price used it is a lens to have in every m43 kit if you want a light and compact kit. I use it on GX80 and they are a perfect match. made very good from all points of view, always evaluating the cost and the size. Clearly if I go out expressly to photograph the 12 40 2.8 Oly is from another planet , but also cost and bulk then ...., sent on August 15, 2022 |
 | Sigma 24-105mm f/4 DG OS HSM Art Pros: Sharp, robust, reliable, excellent stabilizer, excursion from real handyman, speed MAF, if calibrated properly, very precise and consistent Cons: Distortion and vignetting but in pp it all goes ok with a click, weight, smoothness of the different zoom between the two senses, filters from 82, can cloud the lens in case of strong humidity Opinion: I have this lens for about a year, bought used by a friend photographer French, I thought to take it for trial and pours quickly, in essence has become my favorite lens among the zooms. Sure It's an F4 so it should be used as such, but I notice it's a real bomb. I use it in sports and in marriage on 5d3 and 5d4, I calibrated it with the Sigma dock but it had not much need, but since I'm the owner of other Sigma now the dock I have it and a calibration turn I do to do all my lenses from time to time. It Has its weight obviously and the construction ART I like crazy, both to the touch and aesthetically. The chromatic aberrations are really contained and manageable as vignetting and distortion, well present at the extremes of the focal but still correctable without problems with 1 click. It Tends to have pretty saturated tones but creating the right profiles will pull out what you want. As far as I am concerned I also tested the tenacity of the weather, already in several races outdoors I took different water and did not make a wrinkle, if not in some cases, tended to cloud over the lens but it could be my fault that I cleaned it badly, I have to check it out. In Short, in my opinion if you need a zoom handyman better to ride there is really little or nothing, if you consider the price compared to the original Canon (second series, because the first is worse definitely) I would say that I would buy another 100 times. Maybe the last little flaw are the 82 filters that cost. sent on April 04, 2019 |
 | Yongnuo YN600EX-RT Pros: Economical and as long as it works it does quite well his duty Cons: Unreliable in time, a toy, is worth what it costs, indeed, the long perhaps less, since it is to be thrown. Opinion: Bought and used very little unfortunately, because if I had used more probably would have spoiled before and I would have time to return it and make me change. Documenting me on the net, it seems that almost more than 50% of the Yongnuo flash go against several problems and in particular the problem that is no longer modifiable power. Whatever setting you set he shoots always at maximum power. I found several discussions there many forums and it seems that the solution is the substitution of an IGBT transistor that regulates the power. I will try because I am quite knowledgeable in the field of electronics, welding etc. But I strongly advise against buying this flash as well as anything else from Yongnuo brand. I tried the famous 50mm and of course resold in record time, they are toys suitable for those who want to do some testing without fazing, but if you have have to take pictures even just a minimum seriously, not necessarily professionally, I highly recommend to leave it alone. sent on December 13, 2018 |
