Do you see this lens working for your kit? Why or why not?

So it’s the 50 mm I use I got it cause of the price , I love it for the quality of the picture it produces, biggest drawback though is that it has such a very far focus meaning that u can’t film things close to it which is a bummer

@NolanGunn Жыл бұрын

True. Minimum focus isn’t great, but it’s usable.

@@NolanGunn anytime man. Oh btw, if you have any affordable suggestions for a MFT prime lens in the 14mm range I'd love to hear them.

@NolanGunn Жыл бұрын

I know Panasonic has a native prime for a good price! I think it’s a 14mm 2.8 - another option is the Rokinon 12mm 2.0 - I love that little lens.

I love manual lenses it’s nice to use the manual focus and choose the focal length for autofocus. Similar to zone focusing. Works great for street photography because you don’t have to juggle a focus point. My favorite lens for city architecture is the Samyang 12mm 2.0 MFT. I’ll be getting back into MFT in the next week

@NolanGunn Жыл бұрын

Agreed! It’s a whole different experience. That’s a great little lens for MFT!

Is meike lens good for photography?

@NolanGunn Жыл бұрын

I actually think it would be great for photos - definitely not the sharpest but it has a really nice look to it and you could get some good results in the right setting.
