I have the original UFO, and it almost never leaves my Canon M50. It's just great for street photography, and everyday carry. The quality of the images is good enough to print, and I have just published my latest Zine with some of the images taken with this lens, and some taken with my Canon 6D, and I'd be surprised if anyone would be able to tell which is which.
Hello ! I was watching your video and found 2 great commonalities between us ! You had a Singapore $2 currency note and the same 7 Artisans lens I've bought from Singapore. It cost me slightly over $100 and I'm using it on my FujiFilm X mount. Great video 👍
This is interesting. I sold something on ebay and the buyer mailed me Singapore Dollars in an envelope. I like those bills, so I decided to use one on my test chart. Enjoy your lens :)
Great review, awesome formfactor however I think the image quality is just too close to being "really bad", almost no contrast whatsoever, lot of haze around bright areas, that vignetting is quite harsh if you look at the sky above the tree at 1:51 it goes from a saturated blue to completely white.. to me it seems like $60 for this is a waste of money.
If I had to chose I would rather take the TTArtisan 25mm f2 that retails currently for only $64 Here is my review on this one: ua-cam.com/video/R1-xaavWehg/v-deo.html
@@kamalpoudel5395 It's a fancy term for APS-C mode, when your FF camera is using only the portion of the sensor that covers APS-C size. That allows you to use all APS-C lenses without the black corners that they would otherwise cause. Of course this is a crop mode. For example when I am using an APS-C lens on my Sony A7C II then my images are 14MP instead of the 33MP when I am using FF lenses on it. Still more than enough for photos and of course, for 4K video recording
You really need to like the look of the image: the colors, the vignetting, the softness. Like I said in the video, the images taken with this lens remind me of the look we got from an 80's film camera. To me this is such an odd thing like Lensbaby. It is not my cup of tea, but there are people who love the look those lenses produce.
@@ParadiseBizz Makes sense, but I thought the softness of this lens went a little too far. I do prefer character in my images, esp. film-like, and am sick of endless clinical perfection. Subscribed.
@@pouchboy1 Happy New Year and thanks for the sub. I am currently working on a comparison of Sony's 35mm f1.4GM and f1.8G, that costs only half the money.

I'd love to see the images side by side

respect for Kyrgyz SOM 🇰🇬
Right on
Thank for the review!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Love your style man! Ordered this just now!
Thank you. I hope you enjoy it!
Pair this lens with a small M43 body and you have the a system that is comparable to the Ricoh GR3 for street photography, at a fraction of the cost.
Great point, thanks for sharing
...and at a fraction of the optical quality 😜
I bought it last week and am trying it out. Super soft.
@@pouchboy1 Expensive camera cap?
I wish that they make m4/3 mount.
Me too, as you probably know I have a Panasonic Lumix
They do, I've got one for my Olympus.
Sir can I use this for Nikon d7100?
This one amzn.to/3X69X2O is for the Nikon Z Mount

This lans can use sony fullfream body?
It is an APS-C Lens. You can use it on full frame only if you select super 35 mode
@@ParadiseBizz super 35 mode means?
