Here we have another ultra-wide-angle lens from TTArtisan: an affordable 14mm with a maximum aperture of f/2.8. It’s quite compact and reasonably fast for such a wide-angle lens. A 14mm lens is a good choice for architectural and dramatic landscape photography. The f/2.8 aperture also makes it suitable for astrophotography, and at around 196 USD it remains very affordable. Let’s take a look at its performance.
I tested this lens on a 46 Mp Nikon Z7ii (Sample images were taken with a Nikon Zf)

I think I have always been at the forefront to introduce (new) niché lens manufacturers to you guys. Omnar lenses definitely is one of those: a boutique lens manufacturer based in the UK, producing low quantities of unique lenses and also offering lens conversions with a huge attention to detail and quality. The Omnar 50mm 2.0 Bertele FLB is a Sonnar design true to the original formula from 1934, but aims to correct the dreaded focus shift to make it a more enjoyable lens to use on rangefinder cameras.

This lens will be reviewed on the 24mp Leica M10 as well as the 42mp Sony A7rII and you can find sample pictures taken on the Leica M6, Leica M10 and Nikon Zf.
Most manufacturers producing M-mount lenses have at least one super fast 50mm lens in their portfolio and quite often these are prestigious flagship lenses for them.

Thanks to one of my readers I was still able to acquire one of these to review it for you, so let’s have a closer look at this intriguing lens.
This lens will be reviewed on the 24mp Leica M10 and the 42mp Sony A7rII.
Released in 1999, the Konica Hexar RF is the most advanced analogue M-mount rangefinder camera ever made, far surpassing the Minolta CLE and all of Leica’s analogue cameras that came after. Let’s have a closer look!
