Luckily the Thypoch guys seem to have listened to the feedback, as after the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-thypoch-simera-50mm-1-4\/\">50mm 1.4 Simera<\/a> also this one does not feature an annoying infinity look. The 50mm had a focus tab which interestingly is not the case here. Personally I am happy with that, as I am not a fan of focus tabs, but I am sure some people will miss it.<\/p>\n<p>Like the other Simera lenses also this one features the &#8220;Visifocus&#8221; distance scale, meaning instead of simple bars or lines we see these red dots that &#8220;light up&#8221; when changing the aperture setting. As you can see from the picture above it is even less helpful with this longer lens, I would still prefer ditching that thing altogether and giving us a bigger focus ring instead.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"osc-res-tab tabbable   osc-tabs-left\"><div style=\"clear:both;width: 100%;\"><ul class=\"nav osc-res-nav nav-tabs osc-tabs-left-ul\" id=\"oscitas-restabs-1-review-thypoch-simera-75mm-1-4-their-best-lens-yet-53114\"><li class=\"active\"><a href=\"#ert_pane1-0\" data-toggle=\"tab\">infinity<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#ert_pane1-1\" data-toggle=\"tab\">minimum focus distance<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div style=\"clear:both;width: 100%;\"><ul class=\"tab-content\" id=\"oscitas-restabcontent-1-review-thypoch-simera-75mm-1-4-their-best-lens-yet-53114\"><li class=\"tab-pane active\" id=\"ert_pane1-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-69000\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_Infinity.jpg\" alt=\"thypoch simera 75mm 1.4 fast portrait leica m10 m11 m9 m8 m10r review 42mp 24mp 61mp contrast sharpness bokeh vignetting\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_Infinity.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_Infinity-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_Infinity-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><li class=\"tab-pane \" id=\"ert_pane1-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-69004\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_MFD.jpg\" alt=\"thypoch simera 75mm 1.4 fast portrait leica m10 m11 m9 m8 m10r review 42mp 24mp 61mp contrast sharpness bokeh vignetting\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_MFD.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_MFD-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_MFD-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>Leica M10 | Thypoch Simera 75mm 1.4<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Like the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-thypoch-simera-50mm-1-4\/\">50mm 1.4 Simera<\/a>, also this 75mm is a front-focus lens. The rear group stays put, the rest of the optical block moves out on focusing closer. This is a very effective optical design and I expect very good performance at closer distances because of it. As you can see from the picture above the lens extends quite a bit on focusing closer.<\/p>\n<p>The focus ring rotates ~120\u00b0 from infinity to the minimum focus distance of 0.6 m. The resistance is even and actually quite nice. What I like about the focus ring is that it has a distinct click stop at the 0.7 m setting, so you will notice leaving the rangefinder-coupled range.<\/p>\n<p>The aperture ring features a small de-click lever at the bottom. Its resistance is high, so I don&#8217;t think there is a high likelihood to accidentally change its setting. The stops are not spaced equidistantly and the click stops are also a bit random &#8211; 1\/3rd of a stop clicks between f\/1.4 and f\/4.0, half stops between f\/4.0 and f\/5.6 and full stops between f\/5.6 and f\/16 &#8211; which makes figuring out how far you stopped the lens down going by the clicks and without looking at it also rather difficult.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"osc-res-tab tabbable   osc-tabs-left\"><div style=\"clear:both;width: 100%;\"><ul class=\"nav osc-res-nav nav-tabs osc-tabs-left-ul\" id=\"oscitas-restabs-2-review-thypoch-simera-75mm-1-4-their-best-lens-yet-64440\"><li class=\"active\"><a href=\"#ert_pane2-0\" data-toggle=\"tab\">infinity no hood<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#ert_pane2-1\" data-toggle=\"tab\">infinity hood<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#ert_pane2-2\" data-toggle=\"tab\">MFD no hood<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#ert_pane2-3\" data-toggle=\"tab\">MFD hood<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div style=\"clear:both;width: 100%;\"><ul class=\"tab-content\" id=\"oscitas-restabcontent-2-review-thypoch-simera-75mm-1-4-their-best-lens-yet-64440\"><li class=\"tab-pane active\" id=\"ert_pane2-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-68984\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_infinity.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_infinity.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_infinity-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_infinity-768x544.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><li class=\"tab-pane \" id=\"ert_pane2-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-68985\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_Infinity_Hood.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_Infinity_Hood.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_Infinity_Hood-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_Infinity_Hood-768x544.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><li class=\"tab-pane \" id=\"ert_pane2-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-68986\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD-768x544.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><li class=\"tab-pane \" id=\"ert_pane2-3\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-68987\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD_Hood.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD_Hood.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD_Hood-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Thypoch_Simera_75mm_1.4_RF_blockage_MFD_Hood-768x544.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>Rangefinder blockage<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>There is also some rangefinder blockage, even more when using the supplied round hood.

Interestingly the corners look pretty good from f\/4.0, so also on the Sony camera stopped down to f\/5.6 you can expect very good across frame performance.<\/p>\n<h3>portrait distance 2.0 m (24mp Leica M10, Sony A7III)<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20406\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20406\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20406\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/portrait_distance.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/portrait_distance.png 3000w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/portrait_distance-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/portrait_distance-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/portrait_distance-800x533.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20406\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">positions of crops in the frame<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I refocused for every shot and aperture to get the best possible result at different locations in the frame (center, inner midframe and outer midframe).<br \/>\nThe circle of the dollar bill is more or less the size of a human eye.<\/p>\n<p>We will be looking at 100% crops from the 24mp Sony A7III and the Leica M10.

\/><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<h4>Observations<\/h4>\n<p>What can we learn from these side-by-side comparisons?<\/p>\n<p>The Thypoch creates slightly stronger blur, as was to be expected considering it is a tiny bit faster. In the scenes 1 and 2 it also shows higher contrast &#8211; this is the floating elements design at play &#8211; further adding to the subject separation against the background.<\/p>\n<p>The general bokeh quality between these lenses is very similar. However, at longer distances with complex backgrounds the Thypoch creates a smoother rendering.<\/p>\n<p>The differences are not huge and I doubt I would be able to tell these lenses apart without a direct comparison, but if I had to make a pick based on the performance in this category, I do not see any reason to pick the Voigtl\u00e4nder over the Thypoch.<\/p>\n<h2>Sunstars<\/h2>\n<p><div

reliable reviewers. After the 28mm and 35mm we got rid of the annoying and useless infinity lock and here the focus throw at closer distance is acceptable for the first time (was still an issue with the 50mm 1.4). Now what is left for the next lenses are a proper aperture ring with equidistant stops and getting rid of that useless &#8220;Visifocus&#8221; distance scale in favour of better ergonomics (actually readable distance scale and bigger focus ring).<\/p>\n<p>As was already the case for the other Simera lenses I can only say positive things about the optical performance and also about their aperture diaphragms, as they combine perfectly round highlights with appealing sunstars.<\/p>\n<p>Among the Simera lenses this is actually my favorite so far. While it is ~10% heavier than the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-voigtlander-75mm-f1-5-vm\/\">Voigtl\u00e4nder VM 75mm 1.5 Nokton<\/a>, it brings a floating elements design to the table that really makes a difference. While the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-voigtlander-vm-75mm-1-9-ultron\/\">Voigtl\u00e4nder VM 75mm 1.9 Ultron<\/a> focuses even a bit closer (0.5 vs 0.6 m), this Thypoch 75mm 1.4 Simera is much sharper at these distances at its maximum aperture.<\/p>\n<p>The regular readers already know what I care about in a fast portrait lens: good contrast and resolution at focus point at typical portrait distances and appealing bokeh. And here this Simera easily beats the competition, especially the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-voigtlander-75mm-f1-5-vm\/\">Voigtl\u00e4nder VM 75mm 1.5 Nokton<\/a>, as my comparison has shown. If I was to buy a fast 75mm M-mount lens today, this is certainly the one I would be getting.<\/p>\n<p><em>buy from <a href=\"https:\/\/store.thypoch.com\/collections\/all?ref=lyiftukn\">manufacturer&#8217;s shop<\/a> (use code PRNET for free shipping) | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.com\/sch\/i.html?_nkw=simera+75mm+1.4&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_from=R40&amp;_trksid=p4432023.m570.l1313&amp;mkcid=1&amp;mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&amp;siteid=0&amp;campid=5337820268&amp;toolid=20008&amp;mkevt=1\">ebay.com<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.de\/sch\/i.html?_nkw=simera+75mm+1.4&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_from=R40&amp;_trksid=p4432023.m570.l1313&amp;mkcid=1&amp;mkrid=707-53477-19255-0&amp;siteid=77&amp;campid=5337820268&amp;toolid=20008&amp;mkevt=1\">ebay.de<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/bhpho.to\/41te1eq\">B&amp;H<\/a> (advertisement\/affiliate links) for <strong>$849<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Alternatives<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-voigtlander-75mm-f1-5-vm\/\"><em>Voigtl\u00e4nder VM 75mm 1.5 Nokton:<\/em><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong>I already compared these lenses in most of the sections above and also did a bokeh comparison.
