Hope'll be usefull .
IMHO , love the Nokton at all , nikkor got strong bokeh cool colors and is sharp , Fujinon got very nice pearly bokeh but is very soft .
hope You enjoy cats ; )
Good stuff! Cannot wait until I get my hands on 17,5mm. Do you think it's stable enough handheld?
@tonalt thanks .
Nokton 17.mm is a heavy lens , but easy to handle and especially easy on focusing , and thank to mechanism at the aperture ring that allows seamless transition of aperture control , you can also make some small exposure correction during the shoot ! you'll not be disappointed
The 17.5 throw the balance off on the gh2 but it's not impossible to use. I try to avoid using it handheld if possible.
It's funny cause I feel my GH2 is off balance when I have the stock 14-42 on it.. or maybe just it feels like it's trying to float away. Using heavier FD glass and my new 55 year old Takumar I enjoy hand held shots much more. Granted the takumar is a 200mm (small but heavy) lens so I only use it handheld for photos. But my 35mm FD which is about the same weight as the Nokton feels great.
More tests
Fujinon 200mm f4.5 - tele EX mode
@valpopando very helpful tests! How much different in DOF lumix 12-35 on 17mm 2.8 and Voigtlander 17.5mm on 2.8 ?
@Valpopando Thanks for posting those. One minor issue is that in the list for the last video it should say "Panasonic 12-35mm" not "Panasonic 12/35mm" because the "/" sign is either used to specify "or" (as in two alternatives) and alternately before specifying the aperture (as in "35mm f/2.8"). If you put the "-" in, then it's clear that it's a range.
And that's the end of my pedantic quibbling over minor details for the moment. Thanks again for sharing. :)
@valpopando the dumb ass test is more of a bad ass, sick man, sick!!!
all good
+1
If lovin' the dumbass is wrong, then I don't wanna be right. Nicely done @valpopando!
Thanks a lot mate !!
Love your comments ; )
@belzeruf at f2.8 not much different , maybe the lumix12-35 got harder bokeh on the contrary the Voigtlander that is overall softer
@thepalalias that's right my friend ! but in my way the writing is more aesthetically pleasing LOL
@valpopando Okay then - fair enough. :)
F**k yeah. If there is a lens test festival somewhere, you have to send this :)
