Same here.Over the course of April, the plants in my yard will change considerably. I'm hoping to go to the well again a few times.
Well different gear from day one, but what are the others?So I'm breaking two - no three - of my own rules for this challenge in posting this shot...
I believe earlier 7artisans lenses suffered from variable build quality, but I think they have sorted out those issues on this lens. It feels very solid. The attachment is absolutely fine - no wobble and not too stiff either. Both focus and aperture rings are smooth but need some effort to move. I think thatās good as they donāt get nudged accidentally. Mine came with a stick-on rubber tab to put onto the focus ring, which improves usability enormously. Without that tab, the focus ring is a bit slippery.@theoldsmithy
How do you like that 7Artisans 25mm? Judging by your image, and the other samples I have seen, the image quality is more than good enough for me - I'm more curious about the feel of the lens, how dumpened the focus ring is, how easy (or not) is movement of the aperture, does the lens attach firmly on mount or is it a bit wobbly... Stuff like that, please.
Nice use of DoF.
Be careful. Anty-matter is dangerous.
I have the 7artisans 25mm for m4/3 as well - mine did not come with a stick-on focus tab (now I'm jealous) but it's none too bad of a lens. A little heavy for its size, and the aperture ring is a bit wobbly, but never so much so that I felt like it would fall off. I don't use it a ton, I feel like manual focus lenses for smaller sensors like m4/3 often result in slight focus imperfections which are a little ugly. Really large aperture and/or long focal lengths are somewhat of an exception - basically the shallower DoF you can get the less focus imperfections show up in digital files.I believe earlier 7artisans lenses suffered from variable build quality, but I think they have sorted out those issues on this lens.
