Hey nice work. I actually have the new 35 f2 Ultron v2 and naturally it seems to share all of the same characteristics to the 28. I'll probably make a review of the 35 in few months. Also did you notice your focusing ring being a bit stiff out of the box? It took me some time to work mine in before it became smoother. Now it's fine. But if I leave it un-used for a few weeks it becomes stiffer again. I think it has something to do with the type of oil they used and the brass construction? Either way, it's a thing to mention that it does take a bit of time to play with before it's all primed up. Kinda like foreplay. 🍷

The 35mm focal length is my personal favorite for documentary and street photography. For my Leica M6, when I need something wider than my 35mm f/1.4, I use a 21mm f/1.4. The 28mm focal length is my personal favorite for landscape photography. However, I prefer medium format for landscapes.

Just bought this lens, waiting for it to arrive! 28mm has been my all time favorite focal length for ever. I made the mistake of getting a 35mm Nokton Classic f1.4 SC but then got used to it. I have a love hate relationship with that lense. I'm super excited to finally be waiting on my dream 28mm setup. I love the way the 28mm Color Skopar renders on my DSLR so I have great expectations for the Ultron. Great review! And I don't mind the vignetting at all, actually like the amount that shows on your sample photos.

I'm currently building my second Leica M setup after leaving the first one behind in about 2005. So I'm building on experience with Leica-lenses and so far I have 2/50/planar, 2/35 Ultron and 2,8/28 in my setup. Since then non-Leica lenses for M really made a leap forward and current prices for even older Leica-designs have gone crazy. They are still good but as of today you have to buy the most recent Leica lenses to really pull ahead opticallly of the latest from Cosina (Voigtländer/Zeiss).
@messsucher3 жыл бұрын
voigtlander lenses are always a good temporary choice if you can't afford a leica lens immediately, but needs a extra focal length to use. But i guess Artisan 7 are much cheaper too, haven't really used them to see if they are worth it. If money's not the problem, keep things to leica lol. for me personally, 35mm is simply wide enough for me, and the voigtlander nokton classic v2 is actually much smaller than the 28mm ultron (if you ever want to pocket the m6). But for my 0.85x magnification, 28mm will need a viewfinder lol. But the sharpness does look great tho.
@whoschrischu3 жыл бұрын
7Artisans is pretty underrated. The only difficult part is the calibration (but once that's done, it's pretty solid). I used a 7Artisans 35mm for a really long time, and I haven't really been disappointed at all. The Nokton 35mm is SHORT and it looks SOOOO pretty!

Finally a review on this! Was waiting on the 35mm when I purchased it before (returned it). However now I'm considering this 28mm variant because my main is a 35mm cron asph v2 just like yours, so a cheaper 28mm makes more sense since it isn't my main. The one thing I disliked on the 35mm variant of the ultron v2 was the focus throw stiffness. Additionally, I would say that 28mm is also a great option when traveling and getting a lot of landscape in the photo, 35mm for more personal street work so you don't have to get so close into people's faces (imo)!

I think u can think about it this way. If u want 35mm on 28mm u just need to step 1m closer to your subject. But there are situation that u can't step backward for a 28mm look because the environment isn't available.

Thanks for the video. 👌 Yes, a 28mm is at the top of my 'next lens' shopping list. I have settled on the Leica Elmarit-M 1:2.8/28mm asph. It shares the excellent out-of-focus rendering of the Summarit-M 1:2.4/75mm, which I bought while visiting Leitz Park in 2018. .. among other qualities, for me, the size of the Elmarit-M 28mm makes it the winner of the 28mm race. 🥰 .(The Elmar 5.6 is of no interest)
@Renzsu Жыл бұрын
Yeah, I have that lens as well, it partners well with a 50mm. It's sharp and vignettes less dramatically than the Ultron. The 28mm summicron tempts me, but it's a bigger and heavier lens. The Elmarit just makes sense for a lot of things.

Why do most youtubers say something along the lines of "Hey everyone (or hey guys) welcome back to my channel..." What if this is the first time I've ever landed on a channel? How can I be welcomed back to a channel I've never before visited? Why does there need to be any greeting at all? And then, after the 'welcome back' moment, why does there need to be a five minute explanation on what the video is going to be about? This isn't about your video specifically. Just an observational and broad question on why almost all KZfaqr videos sound exactly like every other KZfaqr Video? "Hey Guys and welcome back to my channel and in today's video I'm gonna be talking about the history of rhubarb. I'll go over the many uses of rhubarb and then we'll............(five minutes later)........the best rhubarb pie. So, let's get into it." I'm just ranting. LOL. Love the video. Thanks for taking the time to make it. I'll check out the Voigtlander lens.
