p.1 #16 · p.1 #16 · Finally! A 40mm AF pancake for Nikon (and a lightweight 100 f/2) | |
General thoughts so far.
Looks : its cute, lens is really recessed, other lenses I shoot with I can pick the camera up by but obviously with this one I've gotta lift the camera up again.
Auto-Focus : In continuous mode the AF is fiddly...for the things I shoot with it I have the time to wait so it won't be an issue for me.
Flare : The element is really recessed in there and it was tolerable during the day but the night shot it got really rough flare as indicated in the last picture.
Processing: I have contrast set in camera to as low as possible. Sharpening is set a notch or two lower from middle/standard as well. I use NX2 to process and then do minor adjustments ( curves , contrast, sizing, sharpening ) in photoshop. NX2 reads the lens as 40mm 2.8G
All of the shots below are wide open at F2.8.
