First walk with the 7artisans 25mm

[Zeeke]

I really liked the 7artisans 50mm but this lens isn't quite as good,the built isn't as nice and optically it has some flaws but when considering the price it's a good lens.At distance wide open it is only sharp in the centre but closer I don't think I its a problem. Stopped down to f8 it's sharp every were except the outer corners. The pictures feels a little harsh but that's probably fixable.

Does it have som bokeh swirl or is it in my mind😊

Nice images!

I have this lens too. There a lot to like: tiny size, minimum focus distance of just 18cm, overall rendering. It's a nice walkaround-lens for e.g. on holiday.

The only disadvantage is partly user-error; on this lens often I turn the aperture ring instead of the focus ring

[Zeeke]

Thanks
Yes as an stills photographer I'd liked a clicked aperture ring but for the price it's hard to complain.
It's a fun lens to use and the focal length is close to my favorite ff 40mm.The short focus thread is
for good and bad but I actually like it because it makes the handling much faster and the lens is sharp
so it's easy to focus anyway.

Yeah I think that the lens is so good that small annoyances are easy to forgive, especially considering the price. Happy you enjoy it too.

Really nice pictures--thanks for the show of the lens--I've often thought of grabbing 1 of these for my little X-e1. jt

In the first picture, the bokeh appears to be trying to swirl. Can anyone else see this?

[Zeeke]

Some more bokeh stuff with the lens.....
