Hi all.
I thought I'd start a thread for users of modern/new manual lenses to share thought and pictures.
Years ago I started buying film era lenses and using them on my digital cameras and I've enjoyed using them via dumb adapters but of course there are new manual lenses too. In these digital days Voitglander and others too including Zeiss have brought out native lenses for various mounts and I bought a Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 for MFT and thought it was a very good lens. Later I bought a Voigtlander 40mm f1.2 for my Sony FF camera and later added a 35mm f1.4 and a 50mm f2 apo.
More recently some relatively cheap lenses have caught my eye and I bought a very compact TTArtisan 50mm f2 in Sony mount for £80 and later added a Syoptic 50mm f1.1 and a compact Peargear 35mm f1.4. The TTArtisan and Pergear lenses are cheap and tiny, just the size of film era lenses really.
Anyone got any mini review, thought or pictures to share?
