7Artisans 35mm f/1.4 Lens Review for Leica M 

Hi Kyler, thanks so much for taking a look!

Thanks so much for watching! I’d suggest you try the 28mm f1.4 since you’re using an m8.

Thanks for watching! I don’t have any unboxings planned, if I come across something rare or unique I might unbox it. What kind of photography are you getting into?

Out in California where my mom lives, they had terrible fires all summer. I hope that you can stay safe from fires and covid. Thanks so much for always stopping by to give the videos a watch and thank you for always commenting. I am still very sad about Circa passing, Sara and I still cry and miss her so much. Though we are looking to get two kittens from the same litter. We want to find them before Christmas time.

@@Antnie sorry to here u miss circa I miss my cats alot. Today weather is very hot where I am. No worries. Circa is always in my prayers. How did u get circa as a kitten etc

Thank you so much for watching!

Thanks for taking a look Benj!

Let me know what you think, I’ve been enjoying the results

@@Antnie Will do 👍🏼🖖🏼📸

Did you buy it new or used?

@@Antnie seemingly brand new from b&h i guess they just forgot to box a thing or 2 at the manufacturer .

I believe if you can find a small enough flat head screw driver you could still calibrate it yourself.

👍👍👍

It really does draw the eye to it. I tend to have the lens hood turned so that the Wen character is facing the ground.

They do sell mirrorless lenses. Leica is also a mirrorless.

@@Antnie They do, but it's all a bit sketchy. The key differences between the Leica rangefinder and mirrorless are in sensor stack thickness. Here's a great concept they have, but only did it once. The 7Artisans 28mm f/1.4 ASPH FE-Plus. Originally for the Leica mount, they optimised the FE-Plus option for the thicker sensor stack of the Sony Alpha series. It was still in Leica M mount and you needed their Leica to Sony adapter. Well reviewed lens. I have a TTartisan 50mm f/1.4 ASPH in Sony E-mount and frankly, it's sublime. It's very Leica. For £109, open box deal Inc delivery 🤣 The market for Sony, Nikon and Canon mirrorless is absolutely massive compared with Leica, which as you know, is for very rich people, especially now.
