I already shot Kodak Pro Image 100 and had it developed in the typical C-41 process, this time we see how it turns out when developed in the more complex ECN-2 process.
Processing (ECN-2) and scanning was done at Silbersalz35 in Germany. The pictures in this article are from one roll of film. Per recommendation when having the film ECN-2 developed I shot it at half box speed (ISO 50).

The Sony FE 50mm 1.4 GM is a lens I surely hadn’t expected when it was released – especially only two years after the Sony FE 50mm 1.2 GM hit the market. Some people say this one is better than the half-a-stop faster f/1.2 lens, but is that really the case? Let’s find out in this review!
Today I’m looking at another Carl Zeiss lens from the Milvus series—the 35mm f/2. A lens that is popular for street, travel, and everyday photography. As Zeiss’s final DSLR-era lineup, the Milvus lenses benefited from decades of optical experience, aiming to deliver high image quality in a more practical, less bulky package than the no-compromise Otus line. I was impressed by the Milvus 21mm’s build and manual handling. Let’s see how it performs.
I tested this lens on a 46 Mp Nikon Z7ii (Sample images were taken with a Nikon Zf)

Let’s take a look at a lens from one of the industry’s heavyweights, Carl Zeiss—the 21mm f/2.8 from the Milvus series. It offers the immersive field of view that many people love for landscape, architecture, and environmental portrait photography, without being so wide that composition becomes tricky.

In 2019 Samyang relesased this Samyang 35mm 1.2 XP. At that time, I honestly didn’t care much about it, because Sigma also released their Sigma 35mm 1.2 Art DG DN mirrorless design, which actually offered AF, making it a more sensible choice. This Samyang 35mm 1.2 XP is one of only two fullframe 35mm 1.2 lenses for EF-mount (or any (D)SLR mount actually) though, reason enough to have a closer look at it.
