In this video we review the Brightin Star 28mm f2.8 for Leica M mount. However this review applies for other mounts as well as Brightin star makes this lens for several cameras.
If you are looking for the least intrusive lens for your Leica M, then the brightin star 28mm is it. It is so small that it is unnoticeable in the camera.
This lens offers a lot of bang for the buck as well as a very unique vintage image look rivaling some of the Leica and voightlander options.
This lens barely protrudes off the mount and it's its small size and focal lens that makes it almost the perfect lens for street photography.
In this video I test the Brightin Star 28mm with my Leica M11 and I also include a bunch of images captured with this little guy.
Speaking about some of the features of this lens: here is an over view of what we will be covering in this review:
- unboxing
- Image quality,
- Handling
- Design
- Vignetting and hazing
- some of its aberrations
- Sample images
and more.
There is so much to say about this lens and for $327 dollars this lens could be the first lens to buy, especially if you are testing the 28mm waters and you don't want to break the bank.
Spoiler alert, the Brightin Star 28mm f2.8 for Leica is not perfect but it is that raw look of this lens that makes me want to shoot with it more often than other most expensive alternatives I own.
Looking for a sharp, inexpensive, yet light and full of character, well.. this may be it.
