The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Panasonic G9 Pros: I'd say everything Cons: Af sometimes iffy with low light, big enough to be a micro 4/3 even if for my hands (size 8) it's perfect, lack of stacking on camera Opinion: I state that I use it only to take photos, in my opinion the G9 is a camera that constructively has no compromises, tropicalized and ergonomically perfect for the hands. It has a viewfinder from which it is difficult to go back, bright, defined and does not miss a frame. The 20 mega pixel sensor for me is perfect, stabilized Ibis and allows power ois with dedicated optics going to recover up to 6.5 stops of light, an impressive thing. Clearly it is not pocket-sized, it is not the classic ultra-compact mirrorless that fits in the pocket but at the same time it counterbalances the weight of the heavier optics in an excellent way. The lack of a low-pass filter allows the sensor to better absorb the nuances of color making the photos three-dimensional. If you don't need to have a compact mirrorless it's the right choice, it has everything you need and more. sent on November 15, 2023 |

 | Panasonic Leica DG 12-60mm f/2.8-4.0 ASPH OIS Pros: Colors, three-dimensionality, construction, focal range, brightness, sharpness, tropicalization, lens hood, price if taken in kit, leica, power ois scary in combination with panasonic g9 Cons: Price if bought separately Opinion: In my opinion, considering it a kit lens is an insult, usually kit lenses are medium-low level lenses while this one for me is medium-high level. The photos are alive, beautiful colors and enchanting three-dimensionality, not for nothing is leica. Small size, tropicalized body and stabilization complete the picture. Very satisfied 10 out of 10 sent on November 12, 2023 |
 | Venus Laowa 50mm f/2.8 2X Ultra Macro APO MFT Pros: Very high optical quality equal to the olympus/panasonic competition, 2:1 magnification, excellent metal construction, light and small size, lens hood supplied, precise focusing, price appropriate to the product, 0 distortions, can also be used for portraits or general photography Cons: In my opinion, the only flaws are the lack of resistance to backlight and the very short working distance when shooting 2:1 Opinion: This lens in my opinion is really good from all points of view, in the past I had the 60 olympus on which I mounted the raynox 250 lens to have a higher magnification and I can say that in terms of sharpness it is on par. The construction is really good like all venus laowa, metal and glass, lens hood included (in the olympus not and it costs an arm and a leg). The working distance is very short especially when you want to reach 2:1, we are talking about 4/5 cm but if you want a lens with which you can work at greater distances you have to go for the oly 90 which unfortunately costs three times as much. It is not tropicalized and has no stabilization, but on the other hand it is very small and light. I bought it on amazon new for 350 euros, usually it goes from 450 to 500 euros. This lens has electrical contacts so it communicates with the camera and therefore transmits the complete exif data and allows you to open or close the diaphragm from the camera (in fact it has no physical aperture ring). In terms of image, it has very neutral colors, very high sharpness and really nice bokeh. I recommend this lens to those who do macro and want to use it for some other photographic genre as well, the 2:1 magnification without having to add lenses or extension tubes is something fantastic. sent on October 19, 2023 |
 | Canon 70D Pros: Complete SLR from all points of view, really versatile and performing Cons: High ISO resistance Opinion: The Canon 70D in my opinion is a great product, really versatile and performing. I use it for photo hunting and I feel really good, it's fast and has a really nice sensor. It is equipped with a directional touch screen, is tropicalized, solid in the hand and has an excellent optical viewfinder. Paid very little, complete with original battery grip, for what it is actually worth. The only drawback, which moreover unites all the apsc, is the low resistance to high ISO, after the 1600 ISO present grain quite evident. I recommend it to those who want to start photographing but also to those looking for something complete from all points of view. At home nikon is comparable to the D7100 sent on May 30, 2023 |
 | Fujifilm XF 50mm f/2 R WR Pros: Sharp, color rendering, small, light, WR, af fast, bokeh, resolving, suitable for many photographic genres, aesthetically pleasing in my opinion, quality / price Cons: I would say none for how I use it, perhaps the plastic hood that does its duty very well. Opinion: I bought this lens from 1 month, I must say that the reviews here on juza are very accurate. I needed a street lens that isolated the moments I wanted to photograph and at the same time made me feel comfortable in case of rain or "hostile" environments, the 50 f2 wr was the answer to my needs. Small, discreet in the black variant, fits perfectly on my xt2 .. Fast to focus, sharp already at F2, excellent bokeh, minimal or no distortion. Suitable for various genres such as street, portraits, landscape but also food photography and genres where detail is essential. Obviously if you specialize in portraits there are dedicated lenses that guarantee better bokeh and a less hard yield, but for those like me who do 80% street and when some portrait and indoor sports photography happen the 50 f2 wr is perfect. Also excellent for landscaping where you want to isolate a certain space thanks to the truly excellent color rendering. sent on March 31, 2023 |
 | Fujifilm X-T2 Pros: Third generation sensor, tropicalized properly, fantastic viewfinder, articulated LCD, fuji design, intuitive, excellent jpegs, fantastic raw, buffer and fps speed, monochrome and across, customizable filter simulations, execution speed, compactness and weight, dual SD Cons: AFC not great, sensor not stabilized, LCD not touch, estimated battery life 350 shots Opinion: Found at a really low price with 2 thousand shots in the black version, a fantastic camera. I already knew the sensor that mounts and I am always pleasantly surprised. The Fuji xt2 is in my opinion the perfect mirrless for those like me looking for something complete under all, or almost all, points of view without the need to have 200 megapixel sensors or to demand exaggerated things such as 400% magnifications in search of problems that exist only in the head of those who search. With XT2 you have an excellent sensor that resists well even at high ISO, dual sd slot, a tropicalized body that does not make you think if it rains or if you are in a dusty environment, a general operating speed sufficient in almost all photographic genres, a viewfinder that I personally find fantastic being beautiful large and bright, A design that never goes out of fashion and that transmits the desire to photograph, the possibility of presetting the camera through rings positioned in the right place, a very comfortable and better ergonomics than the more compact sisters (XE2 / 3 / 4 series, X100 series etc. that are "straight"), a number of fps as excellent as the buffer, Also not least and indeed strong point of Fuji, an optical park dedicated to APSC fantastic. They lack the stabilization that today is a musthave but that I personally do not consider indispensable for how I photograph, the af is much better in the new generations especially in afc and is not touch. I recommend fuji Xt2 to all hobbyist photographers like me and why not, I think it can still be used today for work but I do not have the skills to be sure. sent on March 24, 2023 |
 | Fujifilm X100F Pros: Optics, sensor, dimensions, ring/control arrangement, jpeg file quality, viewfinder, af speed, aesthetics, weight, F2 Cons: Afc uncertain, battery life, display neither tilting nor touch (there are those who feel the need, I do not), lack tropicalization and sensor not stabilized. But after all, in such a small space it is unthinkable to have everything. Opinion: Its greatest merit, which is why it was created, is to give the opportunity to those who own it to always have with them a reliable, fast and high quality compact, which takes away all possible doubts about which goals to bring with you. I have owned this compact for a few months, I almost always carry it with me and I must say that it has radically changed my way of photographing. The Fuji X100F has an exceptional optics in my opinion, some say that it is too soft at f2, for me it is absolutely not a defect as I have always been a lover of pastel / vintage optics and then closing 1 stop becomes really sharp (not that it is not already at f2). Small, unnoticed, fast in focusing (except in afc where it is uncertain) it has a sensor that supports very well high ISO when necessary, and every key / stick is in the right place. Intuitive menu and lots and lots of possibilities to customize your shots. The jpegs do not need practically pp and it is possible to move them to mobile via integrated wifi. For lovers of b / w there are acros and monochrome with the possibility of increasing or decreasing the contrast already in the shooting phase. Integrated 3-stop nb filter. The cons are obviously there, and they are those listed above, in the X100V version several of these have been solved, but for me as an amateur is already too much this penultimate version to which I would have added at least the tropicalization to be able to be quieter. I recommend it to those who do not have it and I advise not to sell it to those who already have it. sent on January 04, 2023 |
 | TTArtisan APS-C 17mm f/1.4 Pros: Value for money, sharpness, 1.4 aperture, robust, lightweight, iron/glass, frictioned rings, jerky diaphragm, aesthetically pleasing (for me) Cons: Flare, lack of communication with the camera body, bokeh a bit nervous, very closed shadows, max f16 Opinion: At such a price you find yourself having a 34 mm equivalent on micro 4/3 very bright (1.4), I do not understand what people expect but this would already be enough, plus you have a metal body done really well, well-frictioned rings, Diaphragm with shots (difficult to find among the lenses of Asian origin) lightness and sharpness more than good for street photography, Set portraits and "general" photography even at night. It does not have the sharpness of the originals, it does not have the dreamy bokeh of the originals, it will not be autofocus and does not communicate with the camera body, but it allows everyone to have access to this focal length without fainting. I am very happy to have it in my small kit and I recommend it. On a purely photographic level I can say that what is most noticeable are the excessively closed shadows, a bit of distortion that can be corrected in pp, the contrast not too marked (which can also be an advantage) and bokeh a nervous hair but still very good, detaches the planes well in portraits and close ups. sent on October 24, 2022 |
 | Nikon AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8 G Pros: Sharp, lightweight, quite compact, price, colors, easily found in used, fast af and quite quiet, very bright Cons: Af less silent than other afs, plastic (but still solid), tends to purple / blue in certain conditions ... what else can be said about a lens that you take home with little and excellent results? Opinion: The 35mm on apsc does not drive me crazy as a focal length, but this is a personal taste, there is little to say .. little expense and a lot of yield. I think it is the best lens for value for money of nikon, very light, churns out great photos and is silent and fast. Sometimes the colors turn blue/purple in certain light conditions, but in general it behaves very well. It has excellent flare resistance and represents the standard on apsc since it is equivalent to 52mm on FF. I always keep it in my bag and it is the lens I use the most during outings. I recommend it to all those who wish to have a fixed to accompany a handyman in situations where more brightness and detail are needed. Absolutely positive vote! sent on January 29, 2022 |
 | Nikon AF-S 300mm f/2.8 D IF-ED II Pros: Pro body, af speed, sharp sharp and still sharp, bokeh, low weight of "only" 2.5 kg, carbon hood, A-M/A setting for autofocus and autofocus range limiters, usable with multipliers, tropicalized, minimum focusing distance Cons: Weight shifted towards the front lens, big to encircle with your hands, difficulty in finding spare parts if the need ever arose Opinion: The lens is a real pro made in Japan, it is fast, quiet, excellent as colors and even more excellent as sharpness. In the past I have had several lenses, tamron 100 400, sigma 150 600 C and nikon 80 400 second version.. what can I say, they play in 2 different leagues.. This lens allows you to make heavy crops without any problem, I often use it freehand and the results are really good in my opinion, with tripod or monopod it is scary. Usable with tc, I use it on D500 with the 1.7ii and the yield is still excellent. It shares the same optical scheme of the new 300 2.8 vr and vr2 I consider myself totally blown, it surprised me and will continue to surprise me. Paid 1300 euros with seller's guarantee I think it is worth every penny spent, it is less versatile than the various zooms and a little difficult to encircle but it makes you dream. I recommend it. sent on December 31, 2021 |
 | Tokina AT-X Pro 12-24mm f/4 DX Pros: Focal range, price, construction, performance, sharpness from 12 to 18mm Cons: Flare, sharpness after 18mm, mf/af pump Opinion: In 2021 he still has a lot to say in my opinion, paid 120 euros equal to the new and used on D500. Sharp closing it a few stops, really interesting focal range, fast SLR af, Granite construction of Tokina. If I had to give a vote I would give 8.5 out of 10 taking into account the fact that it is a dated lens and that it will never return images equal to a Sigma art or similar, but it refers to the really affordable price for those like me who use it only on the go. It suffers from Flare quite heavily, has the af mf system of tokina a little uncomfortable, and after 18mm it becomes less sharp, but wide-angle side is great. sent on October 16, 2021 |
 | Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM C Pros: Lightweight, good overall performance, stabilizer, construction (plastic but solid), price Cons: Sharpness of my specimen, Short tripod bracket, aesthetically delicate plastics, zoom rubber that tends to whiten, not tropicalized, dark, dust infiltration in the front lens Opinion: I had this lens for 2 years, used on different camera bodies, first on D610 and then on D300 and D500.. I think it is a compromise in everything, sharpness that in my specimen left a bit to be desired in different situations especially on apsc but this I think depends a lot on Sigma's controls on production (there is the possibility of calibrating it with the dock), the stabilizer is good but not exceptional in both modes, the focus is quite fast but not always precise despite the limiter, constructively speaking it is well done but it lines with ease and the tires tend to turn white, it is a 6.3 that improves to f8 so a little dark, for those who use it on a tripod the bracket is short and easy vibrations are created. If I had to give a rating it would be a 7.5 out of 10. In conclusion I can say that in my opinion it is a "lukewarm" lens has never exalted me particularly for sharpness and bokeh, but it has always done its own and has never given me problems, you can make excellent shots and for what it costs (I paid it 750 € 2 years ago in conditions equal to the new) it is an excellent compromise. After 2 years I noticed dust infiltration between the lenses, dust that does not create problems for the photos but that lowers their value in case of sale. I hope I have been of help to those who plan to buy it. sent on October 16, 2021 |
