jonpais Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 It was a difficult decision to make, but I traded in my Nocticron for the Olympus 45mm f/1.2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's something we've already seen: & On 22-3-2018 at 12:41 AM, darrellcraig said: https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2018/03/veydra-cine-mini-prime-mtf-optical-bench-tests/ Lens Rentals is absolutely the best technical tester of lenses out there. Interesting article about why Roger decided to spend the time to test the Veydra cine primes despite him expecting poor performance and high variability like other low cost, off-brand photo or cine lenses, and what he discovered testing on an optical bench. Turns out they perform very well with little copy to copy variance. Worth a read if you're curious about these lenses. Jon merely points out the DPReview did a half-assed job reporting on the findings of said article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really think DPR was going to write a 5 page article when they could just provide a Link, like they Always do, when they have a Lens Rental article?

Cinegain Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Not sure what they do, I never visit that sinkhole. xD _ But on the topic of lenses... the new Huawei (Leica partnership) P20 Pro has 4 of 'em (rear 3 cam combines to a Vario-Summilux-H1 27-80mm f/1.6-2.4 ASPH.), sensor size = 1/1.78" which is quite huge for a smartphone (that's not a CM1 or something). https://consumer.huawei.com/en/phones/p20-pro/ Official launch was earlier this afternoon. Incredible piece of kit if you ask me. It leaps ahead of the first closest thing from Samsung with a whopping 10 extra DxOMark points: https://www.dxomark.com/huawei-p20-pro-camera-review-innovative-technologies-outstanding-results/ ... who conclude that it's a game changer. Curious to find out what it's like for video. It does do 960fps slowmo (720p) and AIS (they find EIS/OIS doesn't quite work, but when you use AI, you can get much better results) and AF seems impressive. Guess we'll find out! webrunner5, noone, Rinad Amir and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webrunner5 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Yeah, but if are into Photography, 99.9% of the world is, DPR is still hands down the best site for overall info. There is not many people in the world like us thank God. Cinegain and Rinad Amir 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKOUT Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Hello all, wanting to adapt a SONY E MOUNT LENS TO MICRO FOUR THIRDS BODY, I see the flange distances for both are very close and would appreciate if any smart or dumb adaptors exist? Wanting to get the 2 x focal effect from a long full frame lens to the M4/3 crop for a lockdown tripod sequence. Thanks..............

webrunner5 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 There is these ones. Never had one myself. Always went the other way with 4/3 lenses. https://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Adapter-Micro-4-Mount-Mirrorless/dp/B0095OLT6Q https://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-Four-Thirds-4-3-M43-lens-to-Sony-E-mount-adapter-NEX-5T-7-6-A7-A7R-A6000-/182034245856 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
