    Dear nthn,
    I can not even begin to fathom to express how calming your video has been to watch from start to finish.
    I was considering buying one 7Artisans lens because I felt it was more "artsy" than the competition, but what has made it seem like an undoubtedly right decision was the price. I own a Fuji X-T20 and love what it has to offer and feel like it would make a perfect combination using one of these lenses.
    Again, thank you so much for making my work-loaded day seem like a distant memory and drowning me in nostalgic waters.
    All well to you,
    Jure

    • @nthnmtz
      @nthnmtz  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you Jure! I appreciate the nice comment; you should definitely pick up this lens for your Fuji, you won’t regret what it has to offer. I was feeling the same before I ordered one.

    One of my fav combos was a x-e2s with a meike 35mm f1.7. The combo was so light and the experience was so pleasant that it was easy to always take it with me.

    I have this lens and love it. It is nice to take out to slow down a little bit when shooting. It's so easy to point an auto-focus lens without much thought. Manual focus really connects you to the camera and the shooting experience as a whole.

    • @nthnmtz
      @nthnmtz  2 роки тому +3

      Definitely. That's another reason why I enjoy the lens.

    This is beautiful, i always wanted this lens, and now i get the nice feeling of it when u reviewing this lens. Some other reviewers more like to review it as a bad lens, cheap performance, but in other hand with your review, this lens did the job well. This lens is not all about quality, but a character.

  • @Svynya_dzhakuzi
    @Svynya_dzhakuzi 2 роки тому +4

    I own this lens for about two years now and it’s so fun to use. It’s an amazing piece of glass for its price, I didn’t expect it to be so sharp (at least in the centre). The field of view is almost perfect for me cause i like 35mm eq. but there are not so much lenses out there. You have to choose between 23 2.0 and 27 2.8 and man I’m just in love with the size of 27 but it’s a little bit narrow. 23 is not like a pancake and the price of fuji lenses not so pleasant. All these facts makes 7artisans 25 1.8 a great lens no doubt

    • @nthnmtz

    Such an incredibly relaxing video. Well done. I recently bought a 2nd hand X-T1 and got a 7artisans 35mm 1.4 with it but I find it a bit too narrow for everyday use so I might need to try this one. Loved the atmosphere and even the Undertale song. Subbed

    • @nthnmtz

    Great video, some beautiful shots and color. I really like the 25mm 1.8, such a good value. Got mine for $50 used because AF lenses weren't working right when using my camera as a webcam, ended up liking it much more than the 27mm that came in my X-E4 kit. It's super easy to focus, I use it on an X-T2 now.

      Appreciate it bro, maybe 5ish years or so I lost track honestly. However, I recently started taking my art seriously.

    Wow, great everything but I especially like the photos! It really shows you don’t need tons of bokeh to capture amazing portraits. I need to stop relying on fast lens lol.

      Thank you! I used a FujiXWeekly recipe, however I ended up editing the photos on Lightroom along with a Serr film preset!
