I will still work however I think there might be an issue with the image being in focus depending on how close or far you're holding the camera to yourself.
I'm from Leeds myself bro big up! Great review & shots, was pretty confused about the difference between them. It really is the best time ever to be a creator
Phocus software get the HS better than lightroom. Canon R5, get the over red color on the image screen that very distortion color on skin tone and edge of object.
The 55mm represents old technology. You can call its softness "character". Many fanatics love flare and other optical faults if the "lense" is old enough and of the right brand. It is easy to soften an image in P+P whereas sharpening can prove more problematic with artefacts etc.
The sharpness of the 23mm f/1.4 lm wr is unmatched, and I’ve shot for years with 2 different x100 models, the 23mm f/2 (as well as the old 23mm f/1.4, that lens was special though).
If you take the distortion of the best 10mm lens as ground zero, then Laowa can call this zero distortion. It is like saying the champion of the leaque have had a 'perfect' season.
I see that the leica costs teice as much as mini evo (in my local currency, at least). This was an interesting video but i don't think the leica would ever be in my budget 😅 its fun to see the shots from the two cameras side by side though!
So in a nutshell 5dsr if u want to sit there all day getting the perfect shot, 5d mark iv if you don’t get multiple chances. For me 5d mark iv all the way I rather have lowlight performance over mp
Some reviewers have been talking about this for over a decade with the sigma lenses in how they are clinically sharp and lack depth and character, but got a lot of flack by the sigma purists. This is the ultimate confirmation that those claim are true (aside from the build quality issues, and autofocus inconsistencies). I need a 135mm f2 and will be saving up for the zeiss. Thank you.
Very helpful. Very informative. Impressive side by side comparison. I appreciate all the work you put into this. Thank you. I prefer the photos coming from the Leica. Thanks.
I don't think you can. Also this is now quite an old video and Gimbal, I'd recommend one of the current gimbals designs for smartphones by DJI or Feiyu Tech.
Yep I did pre-order on launcb. Back ordered still as of 6/1/24. No idea when or if I'll ever get one. I believe Fuji really botched this launch and I can't understand how and why the scaplers were able to buy multiple units. Saw one that had 45 units of each black and silver. I believe that fuji should have somehow limited one or maybe two to a customer. I know there's a special place in hell for scalpers but somehow they got them and the rest of us are without. I'm a loyal fuji user, converted from Sony years ago, and have the x100v, x-pro2, x-t5 but I'm now contemplating the purchase of a Leica Q3.
I have never used the 135mm Sigma auto focus lens but I have compared the following three lenses: 135mm f/2 Zeiss APO Sonnar ZF 2 (77mm filter size) (manual focus) 135mm f/2 Nikkor AIS (72mm filter size) (manual focus) 50-140mm f/2.8 Fujinon (72mm filter size) (auto focus, vibration reduction, weather resistant) All three are great lenses. For me, the Zeiss images are great for photojournalism and documentary photography. For me, the Nikkor images are great for half-length and head & shoulder portraits. For me, the Fuji zoom is great for the times when I need auto focus, vibration reduction, weather resistance, and other focal lengths.
@@Sondercreative No, the Leica is just a rebranded version of the Fujifilm. They have the same internals when you compare it to the recently released Type-C version of the Mini Evo.
@@JMSobrevilla yet how they shoot and process images are different. This wasn’t based on a single shoot this was over a period of shooting there was a distinct difference in how each managed colour.
Thanks but why would you compare two instant (digital) film cameras with tiny little sensors at night? Thats like the worst conditions you could get. Both look terrible to be honest.
It’s a testing condition. Many people have cameras with them in the evening and demonstrating image quality in tougher scenarios shows people the limits and capabilities.
I just don't like the Instax Mini aspect ratio. Just like I don't like vettical videos 😅 For me it's either square or wide so I like the Polaroid Go better than any Instax Mini.
I'm using the canon 24 with an adapter for a sony a1. the results are good but the edges not so much. I'm thinking maybe due to the flange distance. I'm wondering if this Laowa lens native on the sony would be sharper.
If you’re using an adapter, that could be causing problems too. I know that when I tried Metabones, it was much softer than the Sigma adapter. Otherwise, a native lens is probably a better option.
Thank you for your video. Thinking about getting back into photography and my lights consist of an ancient Novatron power box and corded strobes. Used to use (and stupidly got rid of) a Mamiya 645AFD (2005 year model). Also had RZPro2. Need to get mirrorless full frame starter camera (any recommendations)? Lastly- what about strobes? (For outdoor portrait shots?) Looking to take high school senior portraits and outdoor family portraits.
Great review. Looks like Fuji is making a habit of introducing a great camera and then the follow up model is less good and missing basic functions. They also did it with the SQ10 and SQ20.
