It would help if people could actually tell which lens was used in a print or on the web or…
Photographers with sharp monitors, like to zoom in and marvel at the “3D Pop/micro detail etc etc,” but then out in the real world looking at a print, no one can tell, and they don’t care either. What they care about is the content. I’ve gone to so many museums in New York, London, Paris, Los Angeles… I personally had prints in the MOMA, Sotheby’s, etc.
No one knows or cares about the equipment used. So why spend five times more than a good lens from Sony or Canon, etc.? Especially when lots of them are manual focus.
I think the above is the real issue with selling these lenses. It’s not the fault of some YouTube reviewers. It’s the fact that nobody in the real world can tell the damn difference.
