Cons:some aberration but in relation to the non-determining price
Opinion:I note that my review refers to the MkII version of this optics which, compared to the first version, has undergone substantial improvements in its entirety. Heavy optics, metal, metal lampshade with screw attachment even inside to screw it on the barrel even with unused optics, annoying if you need to shoot maybe on the fly because the lampshade covers the ring of the maf, obscene gray cap difficult to block (at least my specimen). In the use it turns out to be a very fun optics to use, on fuji with the help of the maf you do not have big problems considering also the opening, a nice pasty bokeh, batterly colors quite saturated, coupled with the XH1 is well balanced, great for portraits, the sharpness is good enough even at full opening, but closing a stop aligns with the standards of optics of quite higher cost. Not very easy to find on the various online sites, my specimen I took used in excellent condition and I will keep it in my kit along with the xf fujinon, lens recommended for those who want to have fun with bright optics and regain confidence with the manual focus
Pros:incredible brightness, "ridiculous" price, compactness, good optical quality, precise focus dial, lampshade included
Cons:focus on f1.1
Opinion:In many ways it follows my review of samyang 85 1.4 on FF . It is a portrait and does not disappoint in this field; obviously as long as you know how to work in manual and better manage the depth of field at f1.1 . The Maf is obviously not very easy, and you have to rely on the magnification and peacking focus on the mirrorless (I own Canon M3 ) even if helped by the very good maf dial, fluid but precise. The optics, presents for its almost paltry price, an enviable soft blur and good sharpness even f1.1 in the central area (as long as you have put it in good focus. which may sometimes not be really accurate to that diaphragm, which improves exponentially already closed slightly. Of course, sharpness is related to those portraits where you do not look for the extreme sharpness of optics that cost 6 times more and weigh more than twice as much. In fact it is a very compact and quite "light" optics, although it is evident the quality of the metal and glass that composes it. At the end of the day it's an optic irecommend to those who want to save to get great portraits on aps-c with an exaggerated blur, equal to an FF with 85mm optics f1.4 - f1.8. Of course there is better, but at that price and with these features, it is a very good optics.
Pros:Fascination of the opening 1.1! -Baffed aperture ring-11 blades for optimum Bokeh even at closed diaphragms-construction metal-plastic good workmanship-nice heavy despite the mini size of the lens-Manual focus...
Cons:... Manual focus-difficulty in pecking the fire at TA-fluid aperture ring but a hard little bit-ultra-light lens-front cap horrible mouse grey (could not do it black? what...)-Mal supports backlighting
Opinion:Taken for a nearly ridiculous new figure on Ebay, arrived in about ten days. It comes in a tiny little box... all in all I thought it was bigger! Full-Manual lens without c * * * I and decks, there is no chip so no data transmission EXIF construction more than good all glass-plastic-metal, conveys a good feeling of solidity. Fascinating opening 1.1, tested on Fuji x-Pro1 to TA I got caught with focus peaking about 90% of the first test shots. Excellent ring nut with 11 blades for an always pleasant bokeh; Unfortunately it shows a lot of chromatic aberration to 1.1 especially in backlight where it highlights some problems. Horrendous in my opinion the choice to make a black lens with a grey mouse front cap that does not center virtually anything (but just want to do the NIT...) All in all I would recommend the purchase even given the cost really affordable for everyone. Excellent "School Ship" to enter the fascinating world of manual optics!
