leica_m10Leica M10

Pros: Leica through and through

Cons: Leica through and through

Opinion: I report my impressions as a user of M since the days of analog because a Leica M is a world apart and the M10 is no exception. Here we are faced with a high precision mechanical construction, the materials are the metals that only Leica, to remain faithful to its philosophy, still uses. There is the rangefinder as in the early twentieth century, there are light frames to refer to the framed field of the various optics, the main controls are analog, it is a mix of old and new in equal measure just to remember where the Germans of Wetzlar come from and the improvements compared to previous models are light on an aesthetic level, they have the Holy Grail and perhaps they are afraid of upsetting a Must that lasts over time. The Leica M10 has no frills and electronic frills or superfluous gadgets, it is in all respects "only" a camera, it is intuitive, the rangefinder as well, even if its use requires in my opinion a bit of practice, especially for those coming from SLR or ML, as the scene inside it does not change whether you shoot with a 28mm or a 90mm, Only the frames above refer to the frame and this, for those who are used to composing according to the mounted optics that returns a real vision of how the image will be, can destabilize. The rangefinder obliges you to have the shot in your head before shooting, it is the photographer who must adapt to the medium and compose the finished image first in his head. The use is pleasant, the level of finishes and solidity are reassuring, it is compact and easily transportable anywhere, the files are ductile and malleable (in my opinion in the M9 they were more, but we talk about CCD), the quality is there and its 24 Mpxl are enough and advance even for large prints. Accessing the battery and SD card involves removing the caseback and this is also a feature that comes from afar and reflects the Leica philosophy that the M10 still transmits...

olympus_penfOlympus PEN-F

Pros: Beautiful with style, charm of yesteryear.

Cons: I would say none, after all it's okay.

Opinion: After thinking about it for a while at the end I took it back, this time black, because together with the Leica M and the Nikon DF I consider it one of the most beautiful digital cameras in circulation. The size and its portability convinced me to make a layette with the Pen F and compact optics that are comfortable, including accessories, in a Peak Design handbag as small as a baby carrier. The machine, if you like, is loved without half measures, is the right complement to more performing kits, you take it everywhere, shoots with a harmonious sound, has a lot of settings and functions that I rarely use but knowing that there are make the toy even more attractive, the files are good on most occasions, it also has the Hi-Res shot, convenient when you are not in a hurry and want to implement the image quality. On the video side I can not express myself since I do not use this department of today's cameras, as I think that a good smartphone solves the problem faster at grandma's birthday party or on a trip out of town, so much for professional videos you need something else. On balance, if I took it back, I can only be happy.

nikon_dfNikon Df

Pros: The bayonet F

Cons: I would personally remove all the electronic functions, too many and even useless, and I would leave only the manual commands.

Opinion: I took it because at some point in life I wanted to shoot with a car that reminded me of what I was using with the film and to put on track all of my old objective Nikkor AI manual focus I bought in the seventies /eighty. All fixed optics except a 35-105, which make you think before you shoot, they want their time, and you too realize that the picture is going to go slowly to the viewfinder, without any hassle that transmits digital, Autofocus and burst shots right and sometimes missing or even framed. And then it looks beautiful as I was and still are my old Nikon F, F2A, FM, FE, and I'm happy to reuse my dearest goals that have aged with me and for several years they have restlessly used inside Of an old Temba bag.rnI did not give too much weight to the fact that the sensor is a bit dated, but I assume that the sensors are all good now, or that they can not shoot videos, for that I have other machines and genuinely are not A videofI do not care how many focus points have, so manually focus, I do not want to do the white balance braketing in neutral raw and then to the limit I have the thermometer, so and finally I like it, I like to shoot in manual and have in my hands an object that meets my concept of aesthetic perfection.rn

samyang_12_f2ncsSamyang 12mm f/2.0 NCS CS

Pros: A real gem!

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: This little gem from more than affordable price I got it for use with my APS-C Sony since I felt the need to have a lens with focal length 17/18 mm equivalent to 35mm. I'm thrilled for both overall quality and for sharpness at all apertures. Even at f / 2 of close subjects it allows a focus worthy of optical different caliber or presumed least for name and price. E 'small, light and robust, has a nice plastic lens hood and a pouch to store it when you take it out of the car only to not have the feeling of bringing this welded. In iperfocale you can shoot without worrying about focus, but if you must focus when focus manually focus is not a problem on generous display today and especially with the focus peacking Sony.rnPer photo Night landscape and has a value hardly beat. Those who do not have or has not tried it can not understand what can be achieved with less than 300 euro on focal wide-angle as well. Chromatic aberrations, the declines at the edges, The lack of Af, the lack of the aperture scale for the depth of field and the hyperfocal utterances such as defects by some, in this case for a personal my opinion are not to be considered as such, form only part of the game. And what a game!

nikon_pce85Nikon PC-E 85mm f/2.8 D Micro

Pros: Mechanics, precision in movements, optical quality.

Cons: A little clutatnte, but it is a predominantly study optics, the price on the used is in line.

Opinion: I have the previous version, the one with manual aperture control, which allows with a few euro adapter ring, to use it also on other brands DSLR, I use it quietly also on Canon and Sony. Its tilt and shift make it ideal for the filming of Still-life in general to be carried out in the Studio in all calm and makes a simple DSLR SLR a small optical desk (it is to say, but at least something moves) where it is allowed , within certain limits, to have a good equalization of the plans of sharpness and with its minimum field of decentralization one succeeds, in recovery, to correct the falling lines that with fixed optics and possible only in postproduction. Is sharp up to F/16-F/22 diaphragms, besides in digital you notice a certain drop as is predictable, in film instead the results are excellent even at f/32-F/45, has a focus up to the ratio of 1:2 and, thanks to its slats that create a hole almost circular , a very good bokeh. In addition to open diaphragms and help with the tilt, you can have a precise control of the field of focus even in portraits, as long as the subject is beautiful stationary. Compared to the Canon counterpart, the TS-E 90mm engraved and contrasty exaggerated, I find it more mellow and full-bodied in the color rendition and therefore more manageable and preferable where a chromatic rendition is required more faithful to the original and where the tonal passages are Very light shades.

canon_24-70_f4isCanon EF 24-70mm f/4 L IS USM

Pros: Lightweight and robust

Cons: No obvious contraindications

Opinion: I had version 2.8 for years with whom I have worked almost always in internal and external rare occasions because of its weight and size. Finally with this f / 4 IS I can go out for a walk carefully by mounted on the FF without having to ask for help from a Sherpa and I think it is a great all-rounder, from the macro to the portraits on the fly here and stolen là.rnIl fact that it is only f / 4 in 'era of super bright, makes you feel a little lame, but for spectacular photos from the bokeh you can use other lenses, this is thought to be always ready for use in travel reportage, in street photography, the landscapes and macro, yield and there is more than satisfactory, the price as well, and what you ask for? Honest.

canon_16-35_v2Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L USM II

Pros: Building up to the price

Cons: Quality well below expectations and above the price

Opinion: I used it two days, I was loaned back to pat, last series, datecode UC ... thus year 2014, with the last box type, the ones with the pictures on both sides not just red and white, yet the results are were well below his fine mechanical construction and precision of movement. It distorts a 16mm is sharp in the center but at the edge drops so dizzy, the focal length of 35mmn is almost unusable as knead in low light conditions. I got to test it in fairly dark interior and exterior lighting and contrast, where do I say to her right diaphragms made it, but to pay these sorbole to have a view, to my opinion, just beautiful to see and touch, pena.rnPer just not worth the value for money better than the 17-40 well will have its glitches, but at least the right coast (less than half) and landscapes in full sun equals this unsuccessful zoom that never never venture to comprare.rnConfido much in the version f / 4 IS imminent purchase.

canon_50_f1-4Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Pros: Cheap, good value for money

Cons: A little mushy, if you can tell, made vitreous tank.

Opinion: It 'clearly a personal impression, I usually prefer the objectives yield dense, creamy, like say ... pasty. This perspective, the price being offered is superb, no doubt about it, but I think it lacks the personality that does not place on top of the L-series zoom lenses that cover this focal length (for example, the 24-70 f / 2.8 to 50mm focal length gives a different atmosphere and the colors more dense, saturated and contrasting). Personal opinion of course, is certain is that the value for money is great, but because the alternative is the excellent f/1.8, or the "dear" f/1.2, different objectives for yield and, not least, for the purchase price. rnOttimo focus, noticeable purple fringing at wide apertures in contrast scenes, reportage and street in low-light situations, it is definitely a perspective that guarantees an excellent result.

canon_tse24_v2Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5 L II

Pros: A grandby with wide-open views.

Cons: Weight compared to the old version.

Opinion: In fact, I own its predecessor, mark I, from which this new lens distances itself in sharpness, less distortion and saturation of colors. I've only got to try it out, indoors and in quite extreme backlight situations and I have to say that the difference with the old one you see. Beyond the price is an optical also advisable for those who want a simple 24mm with a sharp and contrasted yield always in every situation, maybe it will not be f/1.4, but allows such movements with particular shots, that only a tilt and shift optic will give, combined with a unique fun in being able to frame much larger scenes by returning them in visions that go far beyond the usual and sometimes obvious framing of a fixed optics. Much easier and more immediate than the 17 TS-E, for those looking for pure fun I recommend the old version that is also used for less than 800 euros. Fun for Sunday photos, safe and reliable for professionals.

minolta_58_f1-2mcMinolta 58mm f/1.2 MC Rokkor

Pros: Construction of other times, in all, for better or for worse!

Cons: By itself no, it belongs to another generation, so perfect as well, with Canon bodies slow in focusing, the compulsory use of the live view.

Opinion: This lens, used analog bodies Minolta offers mellow colors, saturated and so much brilliance. Digitally perform equally well, use with Canon bodies by replacing the original flange Leitax with a specially designed, with which, given the different draw, create some problem in focus. Mandatory for me to use live view and focuse to the millimeter, but obviously requires a stability of the machine and the subject that make it a lens to put thought and rarely captured on the volo.rnIn more with FF infinity the lens hits the rear mirror the machine (in Internet interventions are seen filing of the metal ring that surrounds the edge of the goose bumps, so perhaps it is better to let go and be careful not to arrive at the maximum distance of focus). rnCon APS the problem does not exist and the lens focheggia without delay by the minimum focusing distance to infinity, giving images imbued with a wonderful atmosphere. rnBello, the substantial weight but compact, built with materials other times, bright, dreamlike,intramontabile.rnAssenza almost total absence of any effect of AC and purple fringing. Optics very popular in other countries, mostly Anglo-Saxon, here we snubbed without a particular objective reason, if not the fact that it is not marked or Nikon Canon.rnMeglio version MC or MC-X for the USA with focus ring fire rubber compared to the old model, more cumbersome and less bezel engraved with metallo.rnrnrn

canon_24-70_v2Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM II

Pros: Sharpness, new ergonomic design.

Cons: In certain cases, to nitpick, feels the lack of IS.

Opinion: Definitely the new design and ergonomics, easy to handle and manageable, lightweight and portable enough to ride all day, maybe with a 5D MII or III, or a 1-SD attached to the neck, very sharp and contrasted, in fact, different from its predecessor , (of which I have to say I have a very good impression, my copy has never suffered from BC, has always had a good focus, and especially around the middle focal 50mm, according to me a hard time so far in different fixed lenses, also considering that the old design was derived from the still older 24-70 28-70). rnih Ultimately, a big step forward in everything, perhaps, but here I stress maybe, there could also be a stabilizer, which instead it would be necessary with the old 24-70, where in extreme cases with little light and the focal length of 70mm would have made me catch my breath between shots and the other. rnUn beautiful zoom works well at 24mm and at the same time allows make portraits at 70mm with a great bokeh, passing through all the intermediate focal lengths, making you forget at times and "just" laziness, uthe beautiful sare fixed lenses like Canon L series 35 50mm f/1.4 or the 24-105 f/1.2.rnNon know the brothers so I can not make comparisons with these, I feel, however, assert that it is an excellent, excellent zoom tuttofare.rn

canon_tse17Canon TS-E 17mm f/4 L

Pros: The shorter lens basculabile shift lens.

Cons: Heavy, front lens too exposed.

Opinion: Of course, given the very short focal length, you could not ask designers Canon to find a way to protect the front lens of this view, which to all intents and protrudes in an exaggerated way to limit the goose bumps every time you mounts on macchina.rnE 'a particular goal, which should be able to manage, you should be very careful and pay close attention to always put it in bubble before making the various tilting and decentralization, otherwise skewed images, strange, and not the most reali.rnIn 'ideal is to work around the f/11-11/16-16 aperture to get a shallow depth of field sufficient to return the width of the scene inquadrata.rnCome tilt and shift all the objectives with this 17mm can be fitted together images taken with the movements of the horizontal and vertical decentralization, to get a picture with a roughly square amplitude of the angle of the field even more extreme and rich in detail that a fixed lens will never neither frame nor restituire.rnOttica for professional photographers architettura and interior, very good but just as complex to manage to be able to exploit to the fullest. rnSinceramente I find that the 24 TSE is much easier and intuitive to use without regret angle of 17mm wider than this.

canon_17-40Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0 L USM

Pros: Construction, weather sealing, lightness, versatility, quality / price ratio.

Cons: Slight distortion, not just at the edges razor sharp at f / 4, but nothing dramatic.

Opinion: I find this zoom, beyond the criticism that they can move against him, a large bell'oggettino. Easy, fast, lightweight, sturdy, well used and Aperture right, around 5.6/8/11, has a plastic yield with excellent clarity and a beautiful color saturation. Has its place in the bag, not the unbalanced weight of the SLR FF and above has a value envied even by optical blasonate.rnSi much more needs to be exploited for what it was designed, in the intermediate diaphragms, those seeking the surrender of all openings shall direct their choice of other lenses, brighter, heavier and more complex construction and certainly cost more than doppio.rnColpisce honesty how this lens is able to bring home exciting results, the result of a simple project that does not give up, however, the characteristics typical of Canon Law Beautiful, excellent and affordable.

canon_50_f1-2Canon EF 50mm f/1.2 L USM

Pros: Blurred by fear! Impressive three-dimensional, full-color rendering and pasty.

Cons: Embarrassing chromatic aberration in high-contrast scenes at large apertures.

Opinion: 6igrave; f/1.2 with other optics, such as the old Rokkor 58mm f/1.2 for Minolta a time that was, which, beyond the various difficulties focus on Canon, presents no aberrations so marcate.rnMa apart from all this, is that I find unmatched perspective to interpret a subject, or a detail of a subject, exalting him out of context and making it protagonista.rnrn
