7Artisans 35mm f/5.6 Pancake (Nikon Z / Leica M & L / Sony E) 

Are you interested in pancake lens like this 7Artisans 35mm f/5.6? What is your ideal pancake lens?

Fantastic photos and review!

Thanks Richard, well explained, great video ☺️

I shoot it on a Leica M. My infinity focus is correct but my edges aren't as good as yours. They are soft and I get a magenta color cast. Works fine for B&W and is pretty sharp considering it's built as a cheap and fun lens.

As always Richard, you know, a great video / Ulf

Thanks for this. I love pancake lenses (like the 24 and 40mm Canon pancakes). However, since I've moved to a Lumix S5 recently, I came across this one. Your review saves me some money for now. Not sure. Perhaps. Maybe.

Dear Mr Wong, meanwhile a tiny part of your video (~ 8:57) has been referenced to in my German spoken review of 7artisans 35 millimeter pancake for Sony E (Leica M adapter) which you can find when searching for "Traum-Kuchen-Linse: Was Euch niemand". I hope you don't mind being mentioned, looking forward to future communications, best wishes @S-LAB

Thanks for reviewing this peculiar lens

Tempted to consider this for a hybrid camera cover / ready street cam lens for the zf

Great review Richard. Can you upload the raw files for download, as this version looks better than sample lenses which have been review.

❤️‍🔥

good review, thank you

This video did not mention the biggest disadvantage of this lens - the focus ring moves BACKWARDS to all the Nikon (and Tamron) lenses, so you'll have a mindfu*k to what your brain is used to. A no-go for me. Have to wait patiently for the nikkor 40 f2 till 2022.

What is absolutely dumb that it has that distance label on the front and not at the side surface. Where you actually can see it.... If someone have a new product and want to QA it on dumbness just let me know.... ))) I'm shocked from people who make those designs and not able to see what's totally wrong... and most ironic part, that it so easy to fix to make it right.

안녕하세요. 영상 잘 봤습니다. 궁금한 점이 있어 글 남깁니다. 라이카M 마운트로 리뷰한 다른 사람은 2M 거리부터 무한대 촬영이 가능하다고 합니다. 하지만 당신은 10M의 피사체에도 초점을 맞춰야 한다고 하는데 누구말이 맞는겁니까. 굉장히 중요한 부분인데 차이가 너무 많이 나서 질문 남깁니다.

I bought one for my Ricoh GXR Leica M module. Haven’t had a chance to use it…

Are lenses like this at all good for filming with? Trying to look for a lens with a good dense depth of field.

Why is this lens expensive compared to other 35mm chinese lens?

Limiting your options with aperture and focal length will definitely get your creative juices flowing. But won’t a good mobile phone camera do the same!

Great review! I'm looking for a budget pancake lens for night sky photography; have you tried this lens for nighttime photos yet? Would you recommend it?

Hi, late here,,this ones are cine lens? the same that T1.04 or T 1.05? thanks

thanks for another great video... any chance of a review on the new Sigma FP L ??

This looks like it’s a different lens the M Mount. Antnie reviewed the M Mount and the results are terrible compared toon your photos. Great review from you though.
