>>4402711For the record I don't own any chinese lenses, I'm honestly not a huge fan of them. I do like vintage lenses however.
But to be open beyond the shitposting, I own precisely two lenses for my camera, one is sharp and modern, and one is the 70 buck lens I previously mentioned. Both have their place.
Lenses with interesting characteristics are great and in the right circumstances can emphasize a good photo, but I also understand that modern lenses also have their benefits.
calling one objectively superior is what I have a problem with. Ultimately photography and the desired photographs are different for each photographer and I consider it retarded to declare one true way without realising that for every 1000 photographers, there will be 1000 differing methodologies.
