i found the Ultimate Flare Monster Lens for Sony - TTartisan 50/0,95 ASPH

Since you are talking about Flare test the Pergear 35mm f/1.4 its cheap. Look for "Budget Brilliance: Unveiling the Most Affordable 35mm f/1.4 Lens for Full Frame Cameras!" at 4:45 he shows a flare demo. At 5:16 you see the god flare. Seems like the flare this lens gives off at the right angle is amazing. In the demo It kinda reminds me of the godly MIR 20 MC version flares you can get. I haven't seen anybody attempt flare portraits with the Pergear 35mm f/1.4 yet. I'm curious if it can deliver flare in actual portraits lol. Aim some flash or led light into the lens when doing portraits.

Try out the Voigtländer. And also Sony needs the Eye detect manual focus feature from Nikon. I am a Sony shooter myself, but got the Nikon Zf just because of that feature together with special manual focus lenses.

Any recommendations which Voigtlanders should I try out? I've been eyeing on them for a while now

@@MagicWeddingPhotographer I have still not decided yet. The 50mm 2.0 apo lanthar seems to have an interesting bokeh. Or the 50mm 1.0 does also have a vintage character. But the 35/1.2 Se or also the 21/1.4 sound very promising.

Try the Voigtländer nokton classic 35mm f1.4 SC v2 lens! It’s the opposite of clinical. Wide open it has classic funky bokeh and it FLARES beautifully. Stop it down from f2 and it will sharpen up nicely for landscapes. Remember to get the v2 as it plays with Sony sensors better in my experience (had both). And did I mention it’s super tiny? I use it with a Techart adapter too as my edc.

w sumie to byłby fajny pomysł na nagranie - 4-5 obiektywów do powiedzmy 500$ które mają "coś" :) oglądałbym

[@MagicWeddingPhotographer]

do zrobienia :)

the canon 50mm f1.2 LTM is a better lens for a similar look. Also, much lighter, sharper, less chromatic aberration. I had the TT artisan and sold it because it was too similar to the canon LTM in look, but with more flaws

[@MagicWeddingPhotographer]

I need to try it out!

[@ChrisRowe]

@@MagicWeddingPhotographer it’s a very underrated lens, it has much of the characteristics of the more famous canon 50mm 0.95 dream lens but it’s much smaller and much much sharper in the centre, so much more useable than the dream lens

lovely lens, if I didn't get a great deal on a GFX a while ago, I was thinking of only keeping that 50/1.2LTM on my A7 and getting rid of most other lenses... wish the Canon covered a GFX sensor, it would be perfect, that 3+4 element planar design is my fav look on small format cameras. It technically only focuses to 1 meter, but if you modify the adapter by a little bit and move the lens 2mm away from the camera, you can get close focus, obviously losing infinity.

[@KNURKonesur]

So you see to me modern lenses lack that "something" 95% of the time :P

[@KNURKonesur]

I think they missed a unique opportunity with this lens. They copied the "legendary" 50/0.95 Noctilux, but that Noctilux is only legendary because of the 0.95 aperture and it's a modern lens, most people don't remember older equipment and the actual legend-legend with great bokeh and image rendition was the original 50/1.0 Noctilux so many people forget about just because it's older and f/0.05 darker. The new one is a 4+4 elements design, to my taste it's too corrected and polished, too tame and kinda bland, the old one was a 3+4 traditional planar design just like the Contax Zeiss Planar 50/1.4, Minolta Rokkor 58/1.2, Canon 50/1.2LTM and many many other bokehlicious gems from olden days - trying to make a modern one of those would be A BEAST!

[@MagicWeddingPhotographer]

I WANT THEM ALL :) which one is your favorite?

[@KNURKonesur]

I keep changing my mind :D The LTM was great on A7 cause it was very compact. Once I switched to GFX it's a bit more complicated, a lot of full frame lenses work quite well, but they give an angle that's a bit too wide. I like the 47° a 50mm lens gives you on full frame and would rather get to 45° than 50°, which is the "issue" with all of those 50mm lenses. On the A7 for most purposes the Contax Zeiss Planar 50/1.4 is all you want from a lens, great bokeh, punchy contrast, yummy. But it becomes a 38-39mm equivalent on GFX, so I started looking for longer lenses and bumped into a Minolta Rokkor 58/1.4 which is great. Technically a 3+3 lens design so a double Gauss, technically everyone who hears "double Gauss" thinks SWIRLY, but that one just isn't, or at least not anything close to the swirl of a Biotar/Helios 58/2. I skipped the Rokkor 58/1.2 cause it's a bit less bokehlicious and I managed to adapt the 58/1.4 so it collapses into a pancake for transport, so works nicer ergonomically. Now I'm hunting for "real medium format" bokeh monsters with a Pentax 67, Noritar 66 and Kiev 80 and adapting several lenses for testing.
