It doesn't prove your claim in any conclusive way. “Which is no better than FF ISO 800. Irrelevant. And I rarely go higher than ISO 640. They must have slightly modified it anyway to care for the 4mm glass block on (M)FT sensors, double the thickness of other systems, which needs to go into lens design. The lens is small and can seem overly-small on larger MFT bodies. At $399 I would then be asking why not the Olympus 17 F1:8 17mm or the Panasonic 15mm F1:7. Ok, I guess I missed that.
Share with us in the comments below. Equivalent ISO do. The point is that you can't show me any good high ISO MFT images. Flange distance may not be accurate, for focusing to infinity on the barrel and then taking a photo doesn't give me infinity... have to focus just 1-2mm below that marker. A gallery of sample photos taken with the Laowa 17mm f/1.8 MFT lens. Based on what? ON1 has introduced ON1 Portrait AI, an AI-powered portrait editing application and plug-in, and has also released a major update for ON1 Photo Mobile and unveiled the next version of its desktop application, ON1 Photo RAW 2021.
If you think back to the film days, it wouldn’t be until you got your images developed that you would know you messed up. "the depth-of-field formula that is found in a gazillion of photography textbooks as well as every single online depth-of-field calculator is wrong", Nope. $180<$400, and quality 35mm w/AF > Soft MF.
So..F1.9 full frame equivalent? It's F1.9 :). @matsonfamily: I suggest to look up the dpreview article I mentioned earlier. As a 17mm lens on an MFT mount, this has a corresponding field of view that corresponds to a 34mm lens on a full-frame (FF) sensor (65 degrees).
I put MFT base ISO200 and FF ISO800 side by side and I see that they are comparable.
It’s still not fast, but it worked fairly well.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.
Laowa 17mm f/1.8 MFT JPEG Images "It doesn't prove your claim in any conclusive way"- But, the fact that you can't show me any such quality MFT images, does prove my claim.
... the lens was never functional ... Zeiss Ikon public relations guru Herr Wolf Wehran decided that he wanted to draw attention to his phenomenon by creating a product poking fun at the fast glass fad. High quality metal construction, smooth focus, just the right clicks for aperture adjustment.
light wildlife kit, macro), but it really struggles at trying to coax out the low apertures of inexpensive FF lenses. [cont'd]. Trying to nail focus with a manual focus lens also means you have to slow down.
@ecka84 "Which is exactly what the equivalence tells you" – which is exactly why I mentioned it. Incredibly solid build quality. All your arguments are just BS lies and anti-FF propaganda. With Newspaper Navigator, users can quickly search through more than a million images extracted from digitized historic American newspapers. The new high-performance SSDs use a PCIe 4.0 interface to achieve their maximum speeds, but are also backwards compatible with the more common PCIe 3.0 interface and still offer a performance boost over their 970 Pro predecessors. So you think you're getting a full frame f1.9 depth of field, but soon you realize you have to stop down to f4 loser town. The Q stands for “Quatsch,” which translates to “nonsense” in German, and the lens was never functional.
That process of slowing down and understanding what you are doing was a great deal of fun.
A collectable $80,000 gag at this point, but a gag non-the-less. Yes not quite as expensive as twice the price . For what it is, though, it's nice, and I'll continue using it often. MFT ISO performance just makes it useless to me.”.
Samyang Just released a 35mm F1.8 for the same $400 with AF, and if it's anything like their 45mm it will be quite good for the price. Real photographers always only want, say, a 50mm, so they buy a 50mm, no matter whether they're using a 1/6" camcorder, a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera, a medium format Hasselblad or a large format bellows camera, because "focal length is focal length". If your subjective opinion would be that the shallowness of a 35mm f/1.8 full-frame lens wouldn't be shallow enough for your tastes, that opinion would be perfectly valid, but others who would rather compare it to a 35mm f/2.8 prime or to the usual bunch of full-frame 'standard zooms' at 35mm would still be fully justified to call it 'shallow'.
Yes, starting around ISO 1600 Olympus files become problematic.
