About this deal

Also Risespray aperture ring is very very light, like you look at it and it turns, the 7artisans is much better in that regard. Now something the review made me think of. I’ve read some of the review of the M version of the 50mm (say at phillipreeve). The off center sharpness wasn’t all that great. So, what I wondered was whether the APS-C crop factor kind of cropped out the weaker areas? If so, that’s a great argument for using this kind of lens on, say, my X-E3. Le Mitakon est peut être un poil meilleur au centre jusque F2 mais c’est marginal. Le 7 Artisans a des coins qui s’améliorent plus rapidement que sur le Mitakon Good to hear you can still get work done with your models. funny story — there’s a hotel we’ve stayed at for years. Friends with all the staff, including a flamboyant woman in reception. Turns out she does theater burlesque — competitive, no less, and it has to be G-rated. With COVID shutting down all kinds of theater, I think I’ll suggest she use remote too, and set up the contests online. As a super-large aperture lens, this lens has a very good low-light performance. It can present high-resolution illustrations and get the dreamy bokeh while maintaining a compact shape of 62mm and a light weight of about 398g. The minimum focusing distance is only 0.37m, which is user-friendly to those who like to take close shots and close-ups. The optical design uses 11 elements in 8 groups, including two ED (ultra-low dispersion) lenses. The equivalent focal length is about 50mm. It is very good at shooting portraits. It can be used for both indoor and outdoor portraits. It is also one of the focal lengths that photographers love.

The Bokeh balls are very good wide open : well circular, but becomes a little bit less good with aperture closed down (some fringing visible at F2.8) So, let’s start off with the ergonomics, and in this area, I feel this lens scores huge points. One of the downsides sometimes to a lens with a large maximum aperture is it can be bulky, and heavy but the 35mm f0.95 is actually compact and light. It’s around the size of the Fujifilm XF 35mm f1.4, so it’s definitely something that can be discreet for street shooting, for example. It also weighs just 369 g, so combine that with the size, it’s definitely something that will balance beautifully with a Fujifilm camera body. It’s not too light where it feels cheap but at the same time, it’s not too heavy where it’s just something you don’t want to carry along with you. The size and weight are just about right where you can leave it in your camera bag permanently or use all day long without feeling fatigue.

According to their tests, and comparisons, I was reading . . . this lens is not so bright, to be a superior low light beast. Of course, with that f0.95 lens, and a 12 blade diaphragm, you can bet that bokeh is simply stunning and smooth. There is nothing harsh here. I’ll definitely post more bokeh filled images in my review but so far, I am very happy with the results. I’ve reviewed quite a few lenses for the Fufjifilm system, and to me, this lens produces some of the best bokeh that you can get for the system. If you plan to shoot this lens only at f0.95, you will be very happy with the results, trust me. It’s not the sharpest lens I’ve ever shot, far from it, but it is by far the sharpest fast aperture lens that I’ve ever shot in this segment. And this actually applies when shooting it wide open too!! Yes, it is so satisfyingly sharp at f0.95 that I never even consider stopping it down during day to day use.

The Mitakon is maybe a tiny bit better wide at aperture

Let’s talk a bit about the image quality now. Again, I still can’t get over the price of the 35mm f0.95 because in addition to the excellent build, the image quality has been very impressive so far. It’s very sharp, and this includes images that are taken at f0.95. The color and contrast rendering are great. Yes, it’s a lens with a max aperture of f0.95, and you should definitely use it at that setting because what would be the point in even getting an f0.95 lens but I’m happy to report that it can produce great results stopped down as well. This along with its size and weight means you don’t necessarily need a smaller aperture 35mm lens in addition to this one. The 7artisans Photoelectric 35mm f0.95 Lens can literally serve as your “go-to” 35mm lens for pretty much everything, which means it is quite versatile. This lens has possibly some of the best bokeh that you can get for the X series system. And this is even true when including the 50mm f/1 and the 56mm f/1.2 APDYes, Mitakon 35mm V1 suffers from numerous optical issue. But Mitakon V2 is just totally different lens. I already own the Mitakon 35mm f0.95 mk2, which I absolutely adore. ( You can go read my review from a couple of years ago here.) So I was curious to see whether or not the 7artisans would hold up against one of my all-time favourite 35mm lenses for the Fujifilm X-series system
