I just sold my Leica 35mm f1.4 (German) Summilux for $4500.00. This lens astonishingly has a VERY similar character and mine is on the way from Amazon for $119.00. This lens even resembles the Leica lens. I feel like I just robbed a bank.

[@RageStudios]

but this one is apsc, they do have another for leica, I also review it a while back in this channel

[@itacatv2146]

@@RageStudios yes, the guy is clearly lying. LOL!

[@gilbertdaroy6080]

So the crazy flares and curvature surfaces of the original have been banished? These are impressive samples, good job.

[@Endr29]

Great review. I am happy to see that your lens has a clicked aperture ring. It seems hard to find since every store and most other reviews talk about a clickless aperture ring

[@ElDana19]

Nice review , I was glad to assist you at the backstage 👍

[@RageStudios]

you did an excellent job, glad to have you onboard

[@ZackiSnipes]

Been waiting for reviews to come in on this lens, congrats on being the first! I really liked the mark I, all I needed to hear before upgrading was "clicked aperture", I'm sold😅

[@vedarius]

Thanks for the review! Tech reviews kill this lens, but your shots prove that it is not so bad in real situations, as opposed to the lab ones!

[@RageStudios]

yes, I talked about when I reviewed the mark I version of this lens, technically speaking is far from perfect but pictures turn out great, is my favorite 7 Artisans crop lens.

[@CrimsonArthur]

Great review! I love the 7artisans 35mm F1.2 so much that I bought it twice, for MFT and Fuji X mounts. I love the look of the old design more, but I kinda miss the aperture clicks.

[@artpertures860]

Always good to see you doing a 7 artisans review 👍🏻

[@RageStudios]

It been a long time since the last 7 artisans review

[@sebastien7193]

Hi, I got the mark I. Does it worth it to buy the mark II ? Thanks for the great review.

[@RageStudios]

Not worth the upgrade

[@sebastien7193]

@@RageStudios Thanks for your answer. And thanks for the great review 🙂.

[@johndaubney7311]

Great review. I bought the mark 1 version after watching your review....so having the version one is it worth upgrading to the mark ii in your opinion ?

[@RageStudios]

it performs about 10% better, is up to you, if you do upgrade please consider buying it from my affiliate link

[@Katiedoan88]

@@RageStudios may I ask at f1.2, is the mark I noticeably better than the mark I at f1.2? When you said 10% better, can you describe that it more detail please? I like that the mark i is flatter than the mark ii but I wanted to know if it’s better to get mark ii. Thank you 🙏

[@RageStudios]

@@Katiedoan88 I'm pretty sure it's same optic with better coating, it's really hard to tell the difference, where it might be a bit more evident is shooting against bright lights, both lenses are pretty good.

[@Katiedoan88]

@@RageStudios awesome, thank you! :)

[@gillyb44]

Thank you for a great review, and your photos are beautiful. You say this lens is sharp wide open, but another reviewer says its soft. Im not sure what to believe. Have you had any more thoughts on this lens since making the video?

[@RageStudios]

at f1.2 is decently sharp in the center, stop down to f2 to get decently sharp corners

[@Dime8611]

Hey mate, I was looking to buy the older version. Do you think Mark 2 is worth the wait or should I just go with mk1 ?

[@RageStudios]

I like more the design of the mark 1, optically speaking they're almost identical

[@belalang90]

@@RageStudios So, this mark II is more like cosmetic changes? That is pretty disappointing.

[@RageStudios]

@@belalang90 that's right, actually the mark 1 will go out of production soon. the mark 2 have some minor improvements on the CA and vignetting

[@belalang90]

@@RageStudios Thanks for the info, then might as well buy the first version.

[@RageStudios]

[@pandoraefretum]

wow you like it... maybe I will wait for it to come out... is it better optics than MK 1 ? Your photos look very sharp

[@RageStudios]

it's about 10% better than the mark 1, if you decided to get one please use my affiliate link in the description

[@25myma]

Your opinion is greatly appreciated as always! Im looking for a low light family/holiday lens and Im torn between this and fuji's 18mm f2.. Only con this lens has is it's a bit too tight for indoor use

[@RageStudios]

it might be a bit tight, but it's a nice focal range, most of my photo sample I took them during my vacations with my family

[@25myma]

@@RageStudios I see.. I do have fuji's 35mm f2, but I dont use it much. I'll sell that if I get this one, should give a much faster shutter indoor for kids and with my ancient x-e1, the AF is useless in low light anyway😂

[@inevitablecraftslab]

What i dont like on this lens is the short focus throw. I bought the Meke 1.4 because of the focus throw

[@RageStudios]

I personally like the focus turn, suits my shooting style I guess

[@thedanyopang]

great review! Do you think it would be good for video shooting?

[@RageStudios]

My camera have no IS, so only good if you use a tripod

[@urbanart7325]

just purchased the Cannon 5D Mark I. I am a amateur photographer. Looking for travel lenses without paying crazy money and for maxium of 3 lenses set. Any affordable suggestion? Thanks

[@RageStudios]

I made a video about lenses for the 5D that are affordable, check it out in my channel

[@marcelsherman2782]

Thank you for this great review! 👍🏻 Do you have any information when this lens will be on the market?

[@RageStudios]

very soon

[@marcelsherman2782]

@@RageStudios hopefully! Can't wait! 😁

[@jxinsj4116]

Is it good for sony alpha a6000?

[@RageStudios]

yes

[@novalecortar]

What about the focus scale and DOF marks in the lens? Is it correct? Or is just a draw like in the version I of this lens?

[@RageStudios]

I noticed how in some manual lenses the scale is incorrect, that's not from 1 particular lens, if that happened to you I'm sure you can return the items or exchange for a new one. That happened to my 12mm not to the 35mm. Both 1 and 2 were ok

[@nefflz]

You didn't mention sharpness wide open at f1.2. In another review of the mark ii version, they mention that the softness problem still exists

[@RageStudios]

just a little soft in the corners, nothing alarming, still it performs really good

[@janiverclausen1489]

Good review. Have you got any chance to review the Kamlan 21mm f/1.8 ?

[@RageStudios]

Thanks, no I haven't

[@janiverclausen1489]

@Me Myself Thanks a lot. I was very helpful. I already have the 7artisans 25mm, but sometimes I have problems with the mechanics of this lens especially the focusing ring. The barrel distortion of the Kamlan however makes me a bit sceptical about the relevance for shooting architecture.

[@kornasteniker3939]

Good review and nice photos, ty! There was also a Pergear 35mm f1,2 released recently. Are you planning to lay your hands on that one too? would be interesting if this is a rebranded 7artisans Mark II or something different. :)

[@RageStudios]

it sure seems like rebranding, I'll look into it

[@benny9588]

I got mine also, but it has de-click aperture ring as the mark i, idk why, quite strange

[@benny9588]

I search the net and some people said that 7artisans changed it back to de-click, seems most people like de-click more than clickable aperture ring.

[@ha_dua_o]

@@benny9588 it's bcs clicked aperture on 7arts feels cheap (it's obviously), far from TTart that have so nice feel & sound, but TTart handle very bad CA.. how about CA on 7arts mk1 & mk2 ..?

[@robbykidman]

great review. straight to the point. i wish u could have included technical info for each photo though
