Love this lens! Great vid. Get the M-L close focus adapter by 7artisans, that way you can focus really close
Comparison would be great (26mm, F8)! :)
How can you get a clean hdmi out on the S9? Can i record to the ssd on atomos not raw of course for long shoots? 🎉😅Thank You
Here’s how you get clean HDMI out. https://youtube.com/shorts/fxjm3RsXBEc?si=nhTDyNw2OPLq4YnA and if you want to record on an Atomos then you need a Ninja or better. The Shinobi II is a monitor only.
Great review. Also best instruction I have seen about how you manual focus with the S9. I use a Sigma FPL, and the manual focus punch in goes full screen. I am almost always using very fast manual lenses so getting the focus right is extra important. I recently got one of these lenses and I highly recommend replacing your adapter with one that allows close focus adjustment. The center sharpness of the lens remains surprisingly good wide open, even when very close using this adapter, but the corners to get quite soft, however they blend it with the nice background bokeh achieved by focusing on a close subject.
On the LUMIX you can swap between the PiP “focus punch in” and full screen. I just didn’t show that here. And thanks for the tip on the adapter; I’ve responded to your other comment about it. Very interesting!
This lens kinda reminds me of the Olympus XA rangefinder. It has a 35mm f2.8 lens which you also focus with a lever-like ring on the front and it also has the close focus problem with a minimum focus distance of 0.85m. This lens seems like the kind I could get into if I ever end up going down the digital rabbit hole because it seems like it'd feel familiar.
I had this lens.. it wasn't sharp anywhere. Not usable. I sent it back via Amazon - there are lenses that are much better for less money.
Interesting. I think I’ve proven that this lens is quite sharp. Maybe you had a bad copy. Bummer!
I did not realize the close focus was so far away. I think that alone makes it unfeasible for me I think. :(
Ordered!
@ yes.
@jamescaldwell5 this is… fascinating. I just looked at the “7artisans Photoelectric Close Focus Adapter for Leica M Lens to Leica L Camera” on B&H — that’s what you’re talking about, right?
Use an adjustable close focus adapter, this solves the problem and allows you to get quite close. A close focus adapter basically has another focus ring on it, performs like a standard adapter until you need to get close. Depending on what lens you are using it with, things can get a bit dreamy, but the center sharpness of this lens remains good even when you are quite close.
It’s a shame for sure. Price of being that small I think.
I liked seeing the camera data and also loved the focus peaking tutorial. Although I only use 4/3, I found this interesting and thought-provoking.
Awesome!
Nicely done! Yes, I like seeing camera data with every shot. Thank you.
Thanks man!
Very nice and understandable review, thank you. I saw a lot of Slovenian landscape.
@@photojoseph Yes I know, know pretty well everything. I hope you enjoy Maribor .
Glad you enjoyed it! You saw Slovenia and Croatia 😊
this is perfect for S9 - can you please post links for adapter that i can use it with
It is sold with the lens on their website. Just get that one.
You don't need to buy a separate adapter -- buy the one labeled for "Leica/Panasonic/Sigma L" (oh I see, the amazon listing doesn't show the options… weird. Buy it direct maybe? Or find any Leica M to L mount adapter) https://geni.us/iW5W0B
