An awesome and great review on a couple of lenses that are pretty much ignored by most reviewers but are of great interest to most photographers I believe. Nice views of Aberystwyth too!
I love voigtlander 15mm/f4.5 super wide heliar III. Sunstar, good IQ, small size, but built-in hood really sucks. This NiSi 15m/f4 seems perfect to me.
Meci Mathieu pour cette découverte car je pensais pas qu'il était disponible pour la monture X. La qualité au centre est excellente, la colorimétrie aussi et Il fait des soleils étoilés incroyables (jamais vu pour moi à grande ouverture). Mais moi qui n'ai pas de ultra-grand angle sur Fuji, il aura quand même du mal à s'imposer face aux Fuji 14mm, 16mm, au Laowa 15mm et même au Samyang 12mm voire à des Voigtlanders. Il aurait été un peu plus lumineux, alors il aurait été dans le haut du panier. Là c'est un 1er jet et espérons que Nisi continue dans cette voie car la concurrence est assez dure. J'attendrai néanmoins d'autres comparos pour me faire une idée définitive
awesome review as always, Matt. Gotta give credit to Nisi for their very first lens. If not for that, this lens would have made zero sense. 2 stops slower than Laowa, and same size and almost the same weight. The price difference is not significant enough to justify the 2-stop loss especially for those that work in low light. Well at least people have more options now
Saving of half the price or a saving of £470 in the UK by the look of it. Less of a saving elsewhere [is the Laowa overpriced in the UK?]. For those not wanting it for especially low light and with cameras perfectly capable of at least ISO 10,000, it makes perfect sense. I'd take the £470 saving for this lens personally.
Another interesting comparison is with the irix 15mm 2.4. Larger size and strong vinjetting @f2.4 but @f4 it is much lower. Fairly sharp and similar price too
