Pros: Full-aperture sharpness, fast and precise autofocus even in low light conditions.. And then top construction
Cons: If I really have to find one, at f 1.2 I noticed that slightly vignette, which already at 1.4 seems to disappear.
Opinion: I was very wary of this goal, perhaps more for the love/hate relationship for the 50mm or equivalent as in this case, or perhaps conditioned by some criticism when it came out. I have had it for a few days, but I squeezed it a little, not in tests that measure its peculiarities in a scientific way, but relying on comparisons, with similar lenses and where the only judge is visual perception. Taken to replace the 25 1.4 panaleic, with which I made a satisfactory path in my opinion, so I do not feel to criticize it now that no longer in my possession, if not for a really unreliable autofocus in many circumstances. So first of all I struggled to show a small gap between 25 1.4 pana, and this 25 1.2 pro, this in good light conditions. Then going further, and good or bad shooting with similar parameters, in conditions of really poor light, in addition to the efficiency of autofocus, a rendering of details emerged, of the creaminess of the blurry, and above all in really difficult conditions, an extraordinary color rendering.. And I already considered the panaleic one excellent, but this is definitely on another level. But still hesitant about a form of bias, I put it to the test with brother 17 1.2, identical in appearance and function, same speed and autofocus accuracy. There are multiple shots with the same opening and the same light, with the only precaution of getting a little closer to the subjects with the 17, to maintain proportions. Result: for sharpness on most image, I would say equal to the excellent 17 1.2, which I consider a masterpiece of lens, I did not deepen in the extreme corners of the image, but overall I did not notice great differences, if not more neutral and slightly colors, colder in 17 mm, warmer and tending to magenta in 25mm.. But values that then in posts are managed at will. What really surprised me, and removed any doubt about the very high yield of this goal, were some shots in a semi-dark church, and something That I had already partly noticed, this lens returns beautiful colors even in shaded areas, almost as well as well-lit ones, and... This fact is surprising because with the naked eye these colors are not so full of intensity and nuances, as evidently in the dark we perceive them desaturated.. And so it usually happens with goalses, not so pure glass. In summary: He sees as a cat. |
