Who's your lensfu, /p/?

For me it's my SMC Takumar 135 f2.5, I've never enjoyed a lens more. Absolutely gorgeous in every way.

I have loved many a lens, but my one true lensfu was still the Voigtlander 40mm 1.4 MC. She was the one that got away.

Sony 55mm f1.8,
Sony 90mm f2.8,
Leica 50mm f3.5,
and Nikkor Ai-S 50mm f1.4 have all been some pretty nice pieces of ass too though.

This might sound dumb to a lot of folks, bit I’m gonna go with my EF-S 24mm pancake. Inexpensive, small, sharp, and not too slow (although not fast either, to be realistic).

Only thing I wish I'd done befotr is research if the lens had inbuilt stab. or not which it didn't, as the a6000 itself does not.

Okay, so, you can see a lot of examples of my photography around the board. Most of the recent ones have been taken with the Leica and either an Industar or the Jupiter.

Do you look at those photos and think “the only thing wrong with these photos is that they are not Leica-glass sharp”?

As shit as it is, it's the lens I've used by far the most, since it's compact. It's not my favorite and I'm going to ditch her, but I guess that's pretty much my wife until the divorce is settled.

That said, I took pictures I like better with it than with my Sony full frame equivalent 28-70mm kit lens, so I guess it's alright as far as kit lenses go.

This lens is pretty overrated. The 50 Lux is much better in all regards, except for speed. When was the last you thought you had to shoot at such low light that you couldn't pump the iso one stop?
Also, it weights around 700g. Have fun dragging this thing around a whole day. The whole point of shooting M is its size/weight and portability.

It's an interesting lens just to know exists but not really good for shooting.
weight isn't much of an issue as >>3466653 but he is pretty much right about the rest. The lens does impede into the finder which is really annoying.

If it's a shelf piece, great! It gives you a lot of bragging rights.
If you look around to see what shooters actually use, few people shoot the Noct or the Lux.
I think you'll find the Cron is the lens of choice among people who use their Leicas and don't just talk about them.

The Cron is just an amazing lens. Small and light compared to Noctilux and Summilux. Best thing about the Cron is that it's sharp wide open and renders beautifully. Of course you can stop down the Lux, but that defeats its point.

There's two problems with the Leitz f/0.95, besides its blistering price. The first is that even f/1.4 is bloody near impossible to focus closer than 1.5m with a rangefinder. The second is that at and after f/1.4, oriental substitutes for the Noctilux are like 85-95% as good at 10% the price; so why would one own a Noctilux, let alone use one outside of a studio or otherwise controlled environment?

Also, lulzy viewfinder blockage. My Nokton 50mm f/1.1 gets so very very close to the RF spot as well. But dem borks, and the f/1.5 is actually more expensive...

>are you saying that 35mm is bad?
Not at all. Just pointing out that the 28mm on a DSLR is the same as 35mm on a full-sized sensor or SLR. I actually use a 35mm on my DSLR as a prime as this is the equivalent of the old "natural" 50mm most film SLRs came with. I don't use a phone camera and my phone doesn't have one, for reasons.

You're trolling me, right? 42mm is totally different from 35mm.

For me 35 feels too wide and unfocused but 42mm is tight, feels natural, and isn't a bit claustrophobic like 50mm can be.

28mm on APS-C is equivalent to 42 (or 45 on Canon).

Maybe you were thinking 24mm? Or APS-H?

7mm of focal length in the normal range isn't "totally different".

Nope, haven't even owned a zoom in years. Alrighty, if you're shooting on m43, sure there's an almost large difference between the two, but no 7mm of focal length just doesn't make that big of a difference with normals.

Just started with photography few months ago, I find the kit lens kinda not sharp .. 18-55 mm f/3.5 . It's the lens that come with the Nikon d3500. I was thinking of buying the cheap Nikon 35mm f1.8, would a prime lens usually be sharper than a zoom lens?

A broken bottle from a back alley is sharper than most kit lenses. But yeah, a super common first prime lens is a 50mm 1.8. 35s are fun, as are 40mm pancakes.

I like 35mm for its wider view though, 50mm seems like I can't take nice landscapes with it.

Would the 35mm f1.8 be sharper than the kit lens? Also I guess I need to look for lens with AF-P or AF-S since my camera doesn't have a autofocus motor right?

build quality feels great, like even the front/back caps feel of higher quality than my other lenses, focus ring is nice and smooth too. the 1.8 and vc combo is fucking awesome for low light handheld shooting (pic related shot at night time). nice performance wide open too, with the only real shortcoming being a bit of fringing, but 2 seconds with the sliders in camera raw takes care of that pretty well

At 1.2 it has a terrible glow and is super soft.

At f2 and higher, you could cut a diamond with how sharp it is stopped down.

Definitely my favorite so far.

the lower the focal length, the greater the difference between each mm of difference.
35~40 is still a big difference. it's not until you get to 55+ that the difference diminishes significantly, note the big jump in focal lengths offered past the 50s
