    Thanks for your review. It is nice that the representative office of the company is willing to cooperate. An interesting lens, despite the rather annoying restrictions in use with some cameras. Not everyone dares to do an operation similar to that done with the D40) neutrino coating - no words) I was surprised by the impractical design of the back cover.

    Is this lens optimized for use at short distances or does its quality remain as high at infinity?

      At infinity, everything is just as good. In the archive of examples from d800 I added some samples at infinity. Additionally, considering that it was converted under the video, then everything is in order at all distances.

    150 mm for macro are generally rare even for a full frame, but here they are used for crop.
    A very specific lens for macro, I would choose for myself in the range of F = 50-100 mm.
    150 mm is only for macro fans when it is important to keep a serious distance to the subject.

    I didn’t quite understand what prevented me from checking macro capabilities on the d3200 by simply adding a minimal macro ring? Is that his absence?

      Now I don’t have a macro ring for Nikon, only for M42 and for Canon

      No. Aperture ring no. This is a G-lens in Nikon terms.
      This information is indicated on the plate in the section “basic properties”: There is no aperture control ring, analogue of Nikon G.

    This is what happens when, in fact, a cinema lens is produced under the guise of a photographic lens - large, thick and chic ... It can resolve at least 100 megapixels, there are reviews on the Internet. The bad news is that Irix does not produce many lenses, especially wide fixes with such optics and mechanics and contacts, I would even buy a new 24mm from them ...

      Apparently creating a line of such high-quality lenses with a large set of focal lengths is not so simple.

        They have excellent 15mm and 11mm, they are really excellent, and it’s understandable why, in this segment there are not so many high-quality lenses and with normal prices, but 24mm is not right, they thought that they simply would not overpower sales. And now, in general, all sales have fallen, and for a long time not to return.

      Strong Focus Breathing ... For filmmakers, this drawback can become critical in cases of focus shifting from close to far and back. So it's still more macro than cinema.

    The review is good, thanks to the reviewer!

    And the lens, as it were to put it in a bit of words, is incomprehensible.

    For a subject better than a half-hike nothing has been invented yet.
    For the field, the manual for 150mm - well-oo-oo-oo ... And even without a diaphragm ring, and even problems with counter, and even with a completely absent service ...

    Now, if I took it now, I would consider it in the last turn - even after the old shitty sigma with glitched AF, garbage permission, etc.

    As I understand it, the path was paved by lava - with its strange macro-widths and super-macro. But lava chose the right niche, and immediately took it.
    Now here are all sorts of iris-mitacon connected, but it is not very clear who will buy them.

      I do not see problems in the absence of a diaphragm control ring. Or do you want to add or use more rings on other systems? There are rings with aperture support, and for other systems there are adapters with CPU support.
      Service, of course, is not clear where to look, but the same applies to many other lenses in the countries of the former CIS.
      But 150 mm and more is a very pleasant and practical focal length for working in the field.

    Once again, I congratulate Arkady for the unique opportunity to personally test such a coolest lens, rare for our market! A landmark review will definitely go down in history. Judging by the examples, this is a premium-level lens, and the pattern is plastic and technical at the same time, unlike the top Nikkors, tough and rough.

    I'd like to see a review of IRIX 11mm F4, LAOWA 105 2.8 STF, possibly Zenitar 0.95 E

    How to understand from the text - onion concentric circles. You can give an example with and without them.

      Bokeh circles are like cut onions. Look, there are examples on the site, something like that is called - 'bulbous bokeh'

      This is how to take the different phases of the aging Moon and put them together convex outward, you get a flattened circle with different convex sides and island opposite angles.

        Not that, these are "lemons in bokeh"

      This is when the surface of the circle of confusion has an uneven distribution of brightness in the form of alternating rings of light and darker. Usually arises due to the use of aspherical lenses, since such coarser processing can be used in their manufacture. It also seems to be typical for lenses using Fresnel lenses (70-300 DO Canon).

    Great lens judging by the photos. In general, Irix lenses are a unique technique!
    I was surprised that the back cover falls off easily. On my Irix 15mm f2.8 ZE, there is no such problem.
    I like my Irix more and more!
    Irix has only been around for a few years, unlike Canon and Nikon.
    Perhaps in the future, and they will develop a service for maintenance.

      I took Laova for myself, I did not become toffee.

      I liked Laova a lot more.
      And the picture, and FR, and constructive.

      For long macro, there are Canon 180 and Nikon 200, both are better than Iriks and autofocus in addition.
