And of course, the real aperture ratio will, as usual, be much lower, as well as practically inoperative open :)
In the photo, the geometric aperture ratio in F stops is considered, and it will be 0,95 as stated. For video, consider the real aperture in T stops, so everything is fair. Well, open will be soapy is another question.
Thanks, Cap.
I actually write that the real aperture is likely to be much lower (usually - it is slightly lower) the geometric aperture, stated in the description, ok?
As for the soapy open, this is not another question, ”but one of the main indicators of the quality of the lens.
write easier: there is a hole (relative aperture), and there is aperture
Still, it is worth speaking not as “simpler”, but as correctly.
The relative aperture is the relative aperture, and the aperture ratio is the aperture ratio (which can be “geometric”, which is usually drawn on photo lenses, and effective, calculated taking into account the light transmission coefficient of a particular optical system (which is usually drawn on cinema lenses), no more, no less.
Apparently, the motto of the Chinese partisans is "lighter, lighter and lighter", so that the next program number should expect f 0.7)
The megapixel race is over, the hole-frame race is on
yes no, megapixels will continue to grow for a long time
Well, the Krasnogorsk Zenitar 35mm / 1 record holder for the Zenit-M full-frame mirrorless camera (co-production with Leica) is covered with a copper basin.
Immediately discount unsold samples!
Dear Arkady,
I got the impression that this lens is for crop only.
https://m.facebook.com/7ArtisansFactory/
And the picture with the A7 camera is purely an advertisement for the use of the crop mode in it.
Yes, new information came out today, it really is for a crop.
Fixed
Suddenly it turned out that you can find the same lens under a different brand for less than $ 200 MC RISEPRAY 35mm 1: 0.95
Probably the same as 7Artisans under a different brand and the inconsistency of the declared TX with the real one.
I just answered you about the aperture ratio. According to reviews, Kaxinda 35mm F / 0.95 и Risepray 35mm F / 0.95 optically identical to 7Artisans 35 / 0.95. And according to the optical scheme it is “50 1.4” with a “speed booster” of about 0.7X. So everything is fair. Although, I was also skeptical until he came to me. Here are a couple of samples from him and my a3500: 1, 2, 3
And I'm in a "trance")) I would like to dispel my doubts, that's why I turned. Checked for a6000.
Gotta get better and take my words back. There are questions about the luminosity
In fact, the aperture is not 0,95, but 1,4. The rest from 2,0 to 11,0 correspond. It falls short of 16,0. Sharp from open aperture, but there are clearly visible CAs at all aperture values. Short focuser travel, a quarter turn, which makes it easy to overshoot when shooting.
Well, I don't even know, I have it on my review now, the aperture at F / 0.95 is one stop lighter than my fifty-dollar at F / 1.4. Two feet lighter than my 35 / 2.0. Therefore, in terms of aperture ratio, here is really about T / 1-T / 1.1
Good evening, Arkady!
Thanks for your reviews.
You compared, and I on the metering, when you go to one stop, the exposure changes by 2 times, i.e. if at 0,95, say 100 ISO, then closing the aperture by a stop at 200 ISO should have an aperture of 1,4, and for some reason I get 2,0. I compared the correspondence of apertures ranging from 2,0 to 11,0 with other lenses - everything is consistent.
I understood what you mean, not from the aperture ratio, but about the fall in exposure with closing from 0.95 to 16, that is, incorrect application of the scale of F numbers?
The fact of the matter is that the numbers from 2,0 to 11,0 are plotted accurately, checked with other lenses, and by changing from 2,0 to 0,95 or per revolution, one step is obtained, i.e. 1,4.
I'll play some more, see what's the matter
Do you measure the exposure by a point in the center or not? He has vignetting, weighted will work glitchy. What is the pupil diameter of the lens when open? Well, or at least the front lens.
I checked it again today. I took a ruler and measured the diameter of the diaphragm at position 1,4, it turned out 25mm, i.e. corresponds. I set the lens to infinity and metering across the monitor screen from half a meter in “multi” mode turned out that all apertures from 1,4 to 16 correspond, and when going from 1,4 to 0,95, the exposure does not change. Front lens 37mm.
Pupil diameter at the front and rear lenses is approximately 26mm.
The entrance pupil is approximately 29 mm.
Actually, yes - you are right. With a pupil of 29 mm, this is 1.2, not 1.4
Not 0.95, sorry.
what camera do you use? I carefully looked at your remarks and so far came to disappointing conclusions. I carefully checked it on several cameras: when going from 0.95 to 2, the exposure changes by exactly 1 stop. When moving from 2-2.8-4-5.6-8-11-16, the exposure changes correctly in steps
Checked on a Sony ILCE-6000 camera. Today, after clarifications, it turned out to be honest 1,4-2-2,8-4-5,6-8-11-16, when switching from 1,4 to 0,95 and vice versa, the exposure does not change. Most likely this is another marketing ploy of the Chinese ?! Possibly due to the insufficient diameter of the pupil of the lens, which limits the open aperture of 0,95.
let's figure it out. My exposure clearly changes when going from 0.95 to 1.4 and vice versa by exactly 1/3 stop. When going from 0.95 to 2.0, exactly 1 step (the histograms are straight one to one)
It's all about the diameter of the entrance pupil of the lens, for 0,95 it should be at least 37 mm, not 29 mm.
