  • The 7artisans 12mm f2.8 has great build quality, smooth focus, great picture quality, and a solid solid build. It deserves a 3.9 out of 5 rating. Please vote for my next lens review!
    Which lens should I test next?
    1. Kamlan 50mm f1.1
    2. 7artisans 55mm f1.4
    3. Zonlai 22mm f1.8
    4. Meike 12mm f2.8
    5. Rokinon 12mm f2.0

    I appreciate a lens review that does not compare it to another review. Like all those Viltrox 85mm reviews comparing it to the 90 Fuji! I believe a piece on a lens can also show how the uploader figured out the best way to use it with their samples. Car was a fun subject, but no '59 Caddy taillights???

      Thanks so much for the comments! I'll get those caddy taillights later. :-) I actually sold the lens and I've been missing it so much that I'm going to have to buy it again.

    thx for this review !! I´m getting my one 12mm MFT version in a few weeks and I will compare to my Samsung S22 Ultra in 1x lens! I did another comparison with another 7artisans 35mm 1.4 I have and I really see this cheaps lens stills performs in the high league. Only know that the S22 applies a lot og "layers" of IA automatically and makes look the caption better than a "simply shoot" in a Mirroless camera. Greetings from Buenos Aires , Argentina

    Hi, thanks for the review!
    I am looking to get a cheap wide angle lens for videography - mainly walkthrough videos for real estate. Do you think at wide aperture the quality would be sufficient? Videos would be 1080p on Fuji X-T3. I was searching for video samples of the lens, but there are not many out there...

  • @StefanAlexandruGeogloman
    @StefanAlexandruGeogloman Před 3 lety +2

    This 12mm seems much better than the 7.5 fisheye one from the same manufacturer. Of course, that's somehow normal, but they're cheap ultrawides that could be fun to use for photos or vlogging style of video.

    This video is very nice suggestive for the lens buyers. Am in confusion between Samyang 12mm vs 7artisans 12mm.
    My expectations are relatively to photography and second preference for Videography so
    Good sharpness
    Less in weight
    Good picture quality
    Nice colour tones
    Build quality and durability
    Please suggest me sir

    • @rigosgarage5961
      @rigosgarage5961  Před 4 lety

      I never tried the Samyang, but the company makes really good stuff. I've had their 85mm for canon and their 14mm for canon as well, I believe it was 14mm, either way, all my experience with Samyang has been superb from build quality to image quality. If you want a superior lens, I'd go with Samyang. If you don't mind the slightly lesser performance but to save a buck, go with the 7artisans. That's what I think.

    I tested this lens with a7ii for shooting video I need to turn on crop mode of my full frame sensor it works ok but video quality is terrible not sharp at all but t still photo is useable.

    • @rigosgarage5961
      @rigosgarage5961  Před 4 lety

      Gotcha. I was using focus peeping with highlight functionality from the Fuji XT3. Not sure if it's just the a7II or if it was something else, but if you get good stills, you should be able to replicate. Let me know if you end up playing around with it more if you get any other results.
