Laowa 12mm f/2.8 Zero-D on Sony A7, user review

Laowa 12/2.8 Zero-D is one of the most anticipated lenses in my book, since it covers ultra wide angle yet without optical distortion (ZERO-D). Few months ago, I was able to briefly try it on Photokina 2016 and I made a short "hands on" review - http://www.verybiglobo.com/laowa-12mm-f2-8-and-laowa-15mm-f2-2-uwa-lenses-from-venus-optics-with-close-to-zero-distortion/, where you can find specification and sample shots.…

Zeiss Loxia 85mm f/2.4 Hands-On (Photokina 2016)

I already published Loxia 85/2.4 hands-on in the Photokina coverage article, but it deserves its dedicated space, so here it is, slightly reorganized and with some new content.

Zeiss Loxia 85/2.4 introduced. We will try it on Photokina in a few days.

Today Zeiss officially announced new lens for its Loxia line, made exclusively for Sony E mount (for now). New lens occupies traditional portrait focal length and we hope to get hands on it at upcoming Photokina. While this is certainly interesting proposition, I have to admit that it makes me feel very old and confused.…

Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8, another good reason to go with Sony A7 cameras!

New Zeiss Loxia is here. Third in the line (just like in fairy tail, the third son is usually the winner :-)), but first to introduce new, original design. Loxia 21/2.8 is based on the Distagon construction and doesn't follow Zeiss ZM line like it was the case with Loxia 35/2 (Biogon) and 50/2 (Planar).…

Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario-Tessar T* vs Sony SEL 10-18mm f/4,0 OSS

Introduction: We were among first reviewers to post full res samples from Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario-Tessar T* lens announced just before Photokina 2014. Unfortunately we weren't able to get testing sample of the lens soon enough after release and thus we lost interest to make a full review, but since we finally…

Zeiss Distagon 35mm f/1.4 ZM Review

Introduction: In the last few years I tried or tested over 500 lenses. Only in few occasions though, I experienced instant excitement after seeing first results. I vaguely remember that feeling from my teen ages, when the girl who I was trying to bewitch from a safe distance, finally looked at me back. While subject…
