Are you a slave to auto focus or LOVE manual lenses?
@@frankie2666 me too!
I love auto, & I love manual... why dislike either?
Manual ❤
Awesome Review and Lens! Thank you Pavel.
Many thanks!
I love this type of lenses! And love your channel too!
Thanks so much!!
That price is actually really good. The TTartisans 50mm f0.95 is about $200 more for only a slightly wider aperture. For an APSC camera, a super wide aperture like this makes for a great portrait lens - equivalent in look to about a 75mm f1.4.
I didn't actually check TTartisans one - thanks for pointing that out.
I'm actually loving this lens.
Woe amazing pictures!
Only the ones you are on 😉
great video! love the images, they're quite nice, i just ordered one and had a few gift cards so made it cheaper, you're right for moving subjects this will be painful to use, but for portraits or static items, it should be a fun lens to slow things down for me in a busy hectic day. love the metal feel of this lens compared to modern plasticky lens
It is still a great lens!
Thank you for watching
I have their 35 apsc lens for my Z5 and it blew me away how good it is. I might look at this lens as my next one to buy, i have the Nikon 50 1.8 and it is just an absolute beast and so sharp also a nice price
Out of all Chinese lenses that I got this one is the best by far. I shoot 95% of all of my products B-Roll with it since I got it
Thanks for that interesting video. Do you have the possibility to compare it with the Meike 50mm 1.2 ?
I guess it will be very similar - it's not something that I am planning on reviewing any time soon. Sorry
It looks almost like a medium format image :O
it kind of does
Thanks for the review. I watched your review for Mitakon 50mm f0.95. How this lens perform against the Mitakon? Much appreciated.
you don't need to watch my review of the Mitakon lens to know that I didn't like it. It has just too many issues.
This on the other hand is very good and a lens that I use on daily basis for video /photography commercial work and for my CZcams videos.
@@PavSZ Thank you very much for replying! You help me finalize my decision and I am sure many will appreciate that too. Wishing you a good day : )
If you had to choose would you go for the 50mm 1.1 or the 50mm 1.05 if you want a fun yet cool high fashion artsy type of photo
there would literally no visible different between f1.1 or f1.05 - both hard to nail focus well with due to super shallow DOF
When the Sony A7 series first came out Mitakon (originally Japanese company) made a 50mm 0.95 lens at about 1000$ and a bit heavier. That time the rage with ultra fast lenses had started with Leica selling for 10,000$. The 7 artisans lens also says APO but the CA seems quite terrible from what I have seen in tests of Marc Ahldeff as is sharpness. However those who buy these kinds of lenses is more because of the look. It also has a poor MFD - probably that way it can get better sharpness at further distances - I have used the pentax and canon fd 1.2 (mfd 45) and half the weight) and my feeling is that they might perform a little better optically. These lenses were made to be sharper closed down yet give that ultra narrow DOF. So they worked at all distances and at different apertures. However you have really made some very nice images with the lens which to be honest shows your ability to extract the best from the lens!
thank you very much for watching!
I think there is a lot of better and cheaper vintage lenses than this but this is brand new and a lot of people do not know anything about vintage lenses and don't want to know.
This lens is surprisingly very good (apart from CA - but even that is easily fixable in post). I had no problem nailing focus wide open. No soft edges or distortion. They really have tried to get it right with this lens and pretty much nailed it.
@@PavSZ I just enjoy your very pleasant appreciative energy. I think nailing focus on new camera systems has become much easier - given focus magnification & excellent evf-s. Manual focus demands another sensibility - to take time and compose - to pay attention to the relationship between focus areas & textures of out of focus - also to think about DOF and what aperture to use. have had some young photographers boasting how they only work with apertures fully open. The optics of a lens depends on many factors - on different distances of focus - size of object - sharpness at different apertures - textures of blur etc - color tonality etc. Certainly they are aimed at the Voigtlander lenses but the optics is not there yet and the APO label is a gimmick. However Voigtllander is probably the oldest lens company (though gone through many different owners) and hence has over a century of optical design whereas 7 artisans is a young company and hopefully will evolve
I bought the 7Artisans fish eye for some specialized fun, & that it was cheap; & specialized fun. I'd buy this lens if it was cheaper... as it ticks the other boxes for me; specialized fun. Full manual lenses are (for me) nostalgic, that's why I like them, they give an old feel to a new product... sort of taking me down memory lane, cheaply. That's what I have come to hope for in 7Artisans, a bit of old school manual fun, that's a bit specialized in it's use... & importantly cheap. Why? Because a fish eye is not something I use every day, nor have any hope to use as a professional tool. Likewise this manual 1.05... it's too specialized to take seriously; because it's hard work to use, & as you said there are competitors who make better lenses that are more work friendly for similar prices. If they made it for a hundred less I'd consider buying it... for a bit of fun.
yes. I don't think I'd buy it for the price it costs, even though I like it a lot. There might be second hand ones going for much less soon
How is it compared to mitakon 50mm f0.95 interms of image quality and price etc.?
Don't know yet but I will be reviewing Mitakon 50mm f0.95 very soon
What alternative for L mount 😁? Thanks for the video 👍🏻
great lens - more I use it, more I love it. Thanks for watching
what mount adapter do i need to fit this lens to fuji xt3?
I don't think there is one
How would you say this compares to the Meike 50mm f1.2?
different league - this is much better lens
Will the autofocus work with this lense if I attach a adapter ?
this is a fully manual lens
Thanks for the review, but the conclusion is a little bit weird, if I may say so. The aperture 1.05 is exactly what is superb on this lens and with current 349 USD it maybe actually better deal than vintage lenses, which are more expensive every day.
Also for the video, when most of the hybrid cameras have that ASPC crop in 4k60, this is fabulous lens, because you can have 75mm 1.5f lens, which is actually still superb. With your f1.8 Nikon lens you'll get f2.7, which is already mediocre.
Bokeh is actually pleasant too and even at 1.05, if you can nail that focus, this is actually very sharp lens.
I'm liking it very very much.
I never said that this lens isn't good. I have Sony and L-mount versions and I do use them regularly still
wow.. nice👍
Thank you 😊
nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great review! I do think they are targeting Leica and voigtlander users, so with that in mind it is actually super budget for what it is. I don’t think it can be compared with sigma, Sony or major brands like that cause I don’t think that is their target audience. BUT it is pricey for a lens people may still only use every once and a while if they want a unique shallow DOF shot.
yeah, if you compare it Leica and Voigtlander than it is actually a bargain! - I am talking from Sony/Nikon user's point of view.
@@PavSZ then absolutely! This lens is way to expensive compared to other Sony and Nikon lenses.
Great review Pav! Interesting lens, but for the same money it's better to get a Leica Summicron R 90mm F2 ;)
Totally agree!
That lens has bad chromatic aberration (at least when put on a Sony) and is extremely soft at f2.0. I still love it but on a Sony it has many faults. Would need to try this 7artisans lens out before I said one was better than the other but also comparing a 90mm to a 50mm is never easy.
where is the fuji x mount version?
I am not sure if you can. This is a full frame lens, available on Sony-E, Nikon Z, Canon R and Panasonic/Sigma/Leica L-mount ... I don't think there is any adapters from these to Fuji-X (I might be wrong but I couldn't find any)
@@PavSZ ahhh I see, yeah that's why I couldn't find it anywhere lol. shame. well ill just have to buy the vintage canon 50mm F1.2 M42 and use that then lol
I will doubt that you will make another preoduct review from 7artisans again.
why???? I have done others after this one
@@PavSZ , because Chinese Companies hate it when it comes to any kind of critism.
And they simply do not care at all about a "honest" review.
I worked in huige cn company and I know that for sure. But maybe this has´t had that much of an impact for them - in both ways.
You'll be surprised to pair this with the Megadap, and feel worlds better toward the cost of this lens when you compare what Nikon offers -the fully manual 58mm f0.95Z ;>)
I'm very happy using it manually on my Sony cameras.
I'll be reviewing Magadap adapter for Nikon Z next week
@@PavSZ Nice!!
No it's doesn't feel heavy on every mirrorless camera. It's well balanced on Panasonic S1R. 😉
it's not feather light but I do like a heavy lens. To me it is a perfect weight 😉
@@PavSZ 💪😄
its nice bokeh but not perfect as canon delivers imgae quality. .. i still pick canon 50mm USM 1.4 lens there are magical even old years lens but the image u like in the photos still there... it is closer to the L series.. .
Thanks for watching!
I have been using it every week for my b-roll and I love it more and more. Yes, there always be better and sharper lenses - especially those you don't have, these are the best 😉 but this does really is a good modern manual lens
@@PavSZ yeah it can be a powerful lens for a budget portrait Photography. .. 😊
Your going to need good Nd filters to shoot this wide open!
I used K&F Concept one without any issues
PolarPro!
I started using Freewell NF filters with quick swap magnetic system which do a very very good job
Ок
👍🏻
It has a great aperture, but it would not be usable in a work setting. It should be priced at $300 at the most. For its price, I would rather spend the extra $100 or so and get the amazing Nikon Z 50 1.8 S.
That's what I thought but this lens is actually surprising in what it can deliver.
It's great for photography as my samples prove it but I couldn't use it on a commercial shoot manually focusing, just a little bit too slow process but it's a different story when it comes to video.
Every single review after this one on my channel includes b-roll filmed with this lens - also I shoot all my thumbs with it now
@@PavSZ have to agree. Looking at your samples, It looks like it gives a beautiful render! Thank you for sharing!
I dont get the price criticism and comparing it to a 50mm F1.8 Nikor. F1.05 is absolutely nothing like F1.8. I'd never pay 550 bucks for F1.8 nifty fifty. But this, this is absolutely worth the price and especially worth buying used on Ebay for even less. Not to mention the huge size advantage on the L mount vs alternatives, since all the 50mm F1.4s are gigantic.
YES! I absolutely agree
@@PavSZ Since this comment I got it for only 240 bucks on ebay! Amazing deal for the S5ii. Already enjoying it. It's much much better image quality than my Ttartisans 50mm F0.95 I used to have for around 800 bucks. What a great deal and great size! That part makes it underrated for the L mount, since the Sigma 50mm F1.4 is still fairly large. Now I have both, one for fun, one for pro use.
@@DrWNoLs NICE! I still love this lens
Ya it is not buwdget
Not buwdget for sure!
@@PavSZ Love your accent bro hahaha, but yeah I could get a Rokinon for the price. A side2 by side comparison perhaps for the next vid?
@@noxfilms thanks! It's Ponglish 😉
I don't think this lens is in the same class as the Rokinon 50mm. Side by side comparison would only be fair if it was compared to Leica or Voigtlander 50mm manual lenses
@@PavSZ wow, so this lens is that good too that it surpasses the Rokinon 😮
Boojjet
is that how you say it?
