While the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-thypoch-21mm-3-5-ksana-epoch\/\">Thypoch 21mm 3.5 Ksana<\/a> features a matte finish, a hill-valley focus ring, 9 aperture blades and a serif font was used, this 35mm 2.0 comes in black paint and silver, features a focus tab, 10 aperture blades and the font being used is less distinct (and in my opinion also nicer).<\/p>\n<p>The focus ring has a bit higher than usual resistance and turns 90\u00b0 from the minimum focus distance of 0.5 m to infinity. The focus ring is also equipped with a focus tab and there is a soft click stop at the 0.7 m setting when leaving the rangefinder coupled range.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_87791\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-87791\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-87791\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_Focus_Tab.jpg\" alt=\"thypoch ksana 35mm 2.0 compact leica m10 m11 m9 m8 m10r review 42mp 24mp 61mp contrast sharpness bokeh vignetting limited evf\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_Focus_Tab.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_Focus_Tab-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_Focus_Tab-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-87791\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">bayonet and focus tab<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The aperture ring has equidistantly spaced half-stop click-stops.<\/p>\n<p>The lens brings up the correct 35\/135mm frameline set and because it is so small there is hardly any rangefinder blockage when using the lens without a hood.<\/p>\n<p>There seems to be an official hood available for this lens, but I did not receive it with the lens, so I cannot tell you anything about it.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_87790\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-87790\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-87790\" src=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_28mm_2.8_Eureka_1.4_Simera.jpg\" alt=\"thypoch ksana 35mm 2.0 compact leica m10 m11 m9 m8 m10r review 42mp 24mp 61mp contrast sharpness bokeh vignetting limited evf\" width=\"800\" height=\"277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_28mm_2.8_Eureka_1.4_Simera.jpg 800w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_28mm_2.8_Eureka_1.4_Simera-300x104.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Thypoch_35mm_2.0_Ksana_28mm_2.8_Eureka_1.4_Simera-768x266.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-87790\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Thypoch 28mm 2.8 Eureka | Thypoch 35mm 2.0 Ksana | Thypoch 28mm 1.4 Simera<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This Thypoch 35mm 2.0 Ksana is not the smallest 35mm M-mount lens but still a very compact one.

\/><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<h4>Observations<\/h4>\n<p>The Thypoch &#8211; due to being a modern design with aspherical element &#8211; creates the cleanest and least distracting out of focus areas.<\/p>\n<p>The Leica has &#8211; like many of Leica&#8217;s M-mount wide angle lenses &#8211; some problems with the combination of optical vignetting and field curvature. At longer focus distances the corners are pulled into the focal plane even though they should not be. The bokeh is also generally very nervous and has a lot of potential to distract from the actual subject. The Leica also had more issues with loss of contrast in backlit scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>The Mandler is not really an f\/2.0 lens, more like f\/2.5. It creates smaller out of focus highlights in the center of the frame and it also needs slower shutter speeds to match the exposure of the others. Off center it is a little less funky than the Leica though.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for a lens that creates a smooth out of focus rendering the Thypoch is your lens. If you are looking for busy vintage bokeh the Leica might be what you are looking for (mind you: a lot of cheaper options that do the same thing are readily available) and the Mandler sits somewhere inbetween.<\/p>\n<h2>Sunstars<\/h2>\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\"

The table above already gives it away: also their compact lenses are well rounded products without any outstanding flaws.<\/p>\n<p>With Leica, Cosina (Voigtl\u00e4nder) and all the new Chinese manufacturers the M-mount market is getting a bit crowded lately and Thypoch surely tries to find some arguments to pick their lenses. In case of the Simera lenses it was the (questionably useful) visifocus distance scale, in case of the Eureka lenses the vintage styling and handling and for these Ksana lenses they claim to use coatings reminiscent of lenses from the past (80s in this case), but the interesting thing is: this 35mm 2.0 actually performs much better in the flare resistance category than many modern lenses.<\/p>\n<p>With its lack of focus shift, 0.5 m minimum focus distance, absence of distortion, good flare resistance and appealing bokeh this Thypoch 35mm 2.0 Ksana actually compares favourably to many of its similarly spec&#8217;d competitors (see next section).<\/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 5% discount) | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.com\/sch\/i.html?_nkw=thypoch+35mm+2.0&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_from=R40&amp;_trksid=p4624852.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=thypoch+35mm+2.0&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_from=R40&amp;_trksid=p4624852.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\/4eKF3X2\">B&amp;H<\/a> (advertisement\/affiliate links) for <strong>$599<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Alternatives<\/h2>\n<p>There are countless 35mm options for M-mount available.

Also the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-mr-ding-optics-35mm-1-8-pactcron\/\">Mr. Ding 35mm 1.8 Pactcron<\/a> comes to mind, being similarly small. Compared to these, this Thypoch&#8217;s benefit is its lack of focus shift, significantly better flare resistance and the better minimum focus distance.
