The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Olympus E-Zuiko Auto-T 135mm f/3.5 Pros: Compactness and lightness like all Zuiko optics, sharpness and bokeh Cons: Nobody Opinion: When I talk about the OM system I am biased, there is little to do. I bought this lens as a portrait lens in a hurry to do a workshop, and I didn't even have high expectations, being the cheap version of the 135/2.8. However, I was pleasantly surprised, already at full aperture it returns an excellent engraving that is appreciated even more on 30x40 prints. The compactness and construction are at the same levels as a Telyt with a red sticker sent on May 13, 2022 |
 | Olympus OM Zuiko 50mm f/1.4 Pros: Compactness, lightness, construction and sharpness Cons: Nobody Opinion: Combined with the OM-1 it is something simply wonderful, lightweight, compact and engraved like a Summicron on a Leica M2 but definitely more affordable. The build quality is at the top, just turn the focus ring to realize it: it is smooth and braked at the right point. Even the use of closed diaphragms for landscaping does not disappoint at all. I consider it my best purchase in the photographic field sent on May 13, 2022 |
 | Olympus Zuiko Auto-W MC 28mm f/2.8 Pros: Solidity, compactness, sharpness Cons: None, too closed in low-light situations Opinion: Paired with the Olympus OM-1 it is definitely the ultimate wide angle for analog photography. The sharpness that it returns, especially if combined with a very resolving film like the ILFORD PANF+ in my case, makes you practically forget that you are shooting on film, giving results equal to digital. Its compactness also makes it perfect for reportage photography. However, in many situations not being able to open more than f2.8 has turned out to be a limit, but it is a compromise that can be safely accepted, considering that the 28mm f2 is unobtainable and very expensive sent on January 12, 2022 |
 | Olympus OM-1 Pros: Easy handling, timing ring on the bayonet, ease of use, indestructible Cons: It is not easy to find the batteries suitable to operate the light meter, impossibility of exposing to 3200 ASA (I think due to the fact that in the 70s there were no such sensitive films) Opinion: I only used the OM-1 to photograph for three weeks, pairing it with a mediocre Kodak color film. The galvanometer light meter is very practical to use and accurate enough to trust it 100% if you are not able to guess the exposure. The timing ring located on the bayonet is immediately close to the aperture and focus rings located on the lens, and allows you to set all the shooting parameters at a glance. However, being a machine now fifty years old, it presents two problems: the impossibility of exposing to 3200 ASA, ergo if someone wants to have fun exposing films with high sensitivity (increasing the development time), should calculate the exposure to 1600 and then underexpose a stop by varying times or apertures. The second problem concerns the battery of the light meter, which today is produced only by Weincell specifically for this camera, making it a bit difficult to find sent on October 29, 2021 |
 | Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Pros: Lightweight, compact, stabilized, good autofocus Cons: dark, poor yield at 210mm Opinion: He was part of my kit for a long time, paired with the 16-50 PZ and 50mm f1.8 Olympus that I fished from an old analog kit. To be an optical kit aimed at beginners is really good, stabilization manages to compensate well for its ridiculous brightness. And brightness is its weak point. An f6.3 I can accept from 300mm up, but not on 210 mostly for APS-C. They could have done it slightly bigger and earned at least one f5.6 to make it really perfect for novice amateurs sent on January 01, 2021 |
 | Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm f/1.8 Pros: Sharpness, contrast, compactness, construction, bokeh Cons: Price Opinion: Used really very little and on very few occasions (clearly I can't afford to have one of my own). However, I was able to appreciate it anyway. We are ahead of the best 35mm lens (equivalent focal) ever built for APS-C. Amazing how it's possible to have everything perfectly sharp while shooting at f2.8, and at the same time have a perfect bokeh - perhaps too perfect for me that I prefer the blurry vintage lenses - at full aperture. I put the price against it just because you have to put a con, but it's justified. This lens is aimed at professionals who really need a perfect yield all over the frame and who have no problem spending 800€ for a 24mm worthy of the blue logo. sent on January 01, 2021 |
 | Sony E 10-18mm f/4 OSS Pros: 10mm, no distortion, sharpness, stabilization Cons: very light Aberrations at F4, loss of sharpness between f16 and f22, price Opinion: I fell in love with this optics for the little I used it. We are talking about an exceptional ultragrandangolo that goes up to 10mm (15mm equivalent on FF), ideal for landscapes and reportage. In the backlight you can make a perfect starlet already at f16 and despite the sharpness goes slightly to be blessed due to refraction, it is really pleasant to use even at these openings. The stabilization combined with the fixed f4 opening makes it perfect even at night, with a safety time of 1/13 (in some situations 1/8 and 1/6 are safely feasible) that allows you to safely make some night skis sent on January 01, 2021 |
 | Canon 1200D Pros: Price, compactness and weight compared to other SLRs Cons: dark viewfinder, autofocus, ISO seal Opinion: To be a REFLEX I found it very light, compact and easy to use. Hard-to-find features in this category of cameras. The viewfinder is terrible, even my Olympus OM-10 of the 80s beats it, the focus points are really few and the ISO seal is terrible (and it was to be expected since the sensor reaches a maximum of 6400 ISO, lowering the noise threshold a lot). We are on the most entry-level entry-level ever sent on December 08, 2020 |
 | Nikon D7200 Pros: Sensor quality, viewfinder, autofocus, ergonomics, small screen convenient to quickly control f and ISO Cons: Not at all intuitive use, video compartment, weight, size, it lends itself really little to dynamic photography, excessively large and heavy kit optics to be the classic dark zoom lens for APS-C Opinion: I tried it compared to my Sony A6000, which boasts the same 24mpx APS-C sensor with ISO 100-25600 sensitivity. It lends itself very well to static photography, especially landscape, but when you go on dynamic photography or street, where you need to have the reflections ready, it is unusable, it mainly causes excessive weight combined with the poor intuitiveness of the controls (which forces you to know the Nikon world very well). The image quality is good while the ISO seal is also poor compared to other cameras of 2015. At the same price it is better and once the test is over I concluded that the A6000 is much higher sent on December 08, 2020 |
 | Meyer Gorlitz Trioplan 100mm f/2.8 Pros: soap bubbles effect Cons: low sharpness, excessive price Opinion: I borrowed one, and I would say that I did more than well, since it is absolutely not worth the money they ask for: on Ebay it is also inserted at 6-700 €. A price from modern optics for what is basically a more than vintage lens that has the peculiarity of the soap bubbles effect. Effect that however can only be achieved in particular conditions with illuminated background and subject in backlight. The goal, for the rest, is all you would expect from a slow 40s-50s: low sharpness just acceptable, lots of metal and hard rings, inaccurate focus sent on November 04, 2020 |
 | Pentax-A SMC 50mm f/2.0 Pros: Price, compactness, bokeh Cons: Chromatic aberration, poor sharpness Opinion: Used for a short time, I was disappointed not a little. Manual fire is inaccurate, image quality is barely acceptable. Not recommended for those who do not have experience with manual fire and vintage furniture. Suitable for portraits and macros (when used with the specially made inverter ring), but absolutely not subject to long distances and landscapes. Chromatic aberration makes it almost unusable in backlight sent on October 21, 2020 |
 | Vivitar 28mm f/2.8 (Minolta MD) Pros: Sharpness, soft rings but not too much Cons: Chromatic aberration Opinion: Bought from ebay in conditions again for only 25€, I must say that it surprised me not a little. The image quality is great, even at the edges, if you focus properly. Being a not excessively bright vintage 28mm do not expect bokeh or great depth of field, nor the absence of flares and chromatic aberrations. This is not a suitable lens for those with no experience with vintage goals and manual focus sent on October 21, 2020 |
 | 7artisans 25mm f/1.8 Pros: Price, sharpness in the center of the image, fluid iris ring Cons: Poor quality at the edges of the image, slight bubble distortion in the center of the image between f/8 and f/16, unusable in backlight, vignetting, too soft rings Opinion: Purchased branded Neewer, the quality of the image is acceptable only in the center, approaching the edges you have a very sudden ness of sharpness. This view is in no way suitable for shooting subjects at long distances, let alone landscapes. It lends itself much more to open use, when you intend to highlight a specific detail and not the entire image. Vignetting, especially if increased in post-production, is very useful for "lomo" photography. Overall it's a lens worth what it costs sent on October 21, 2020 |
 | Olympus 50mm f/1.8 OM F.Zuiko Pros: Sharpness, price Cons: Focus ring too hard Opinion: I've used this lens for almost all of my shots so far and I'm more than satisfied. The focus, which is done by moving a fairly hard ring, is very precise: I just need to use the focus peaking of my camera to get very sharp images. It is located at very low prices, I would say it is absolutely worth it! sent on October 21, 2020 |
