I bought my Vivitar 35/1.9 about 10 years ago, figuring it would probably be an OK optic to add to my kit. Honestly, I didn't shoot with it much during the ensuing years, until I started reading about how it had become a really hot number on eBay. I think I paid $40 for mine when it was just another lens by Vivitar. But after reading its glowing reviews, I took mine out and shot with it some, and I was really impressed as to just how sharp it was -- or is. It really hadn't gotten much use with my Canon DSLR because it is an FD mount lens, but after I picked up a Sony NEX 7, I started using it more, with impressive results. I'd post an image or two, but I'm on the wrong computer, and I don't have any good examples up at my website. Maybe tomorrow I can post something.
Anyway, kryss, those are some great shots, and I agree with Lloyd, that last one is a real standout. _________________ Michael

Nice shots. I got two copies with Nikon mount and a Panagor 35mm f/2, which is believed to be the same lens ( I will need to do a comparison though).
The lens is a glowy wide open but could be desired for portraits. |

How is it compared to the Canon FL f2.5 35mm? |

Hmm, you know, that's a good question. I should do a comparison between the two. I've long loved the FL 35/2.5 for its overall "look" and edge-to-edge sharpness. And the Vivitar seems to have these same qualities. Only thing is, my comparison would be done with my APSC Sony NEX 7, unless I felt like going to the bother of shooting a roll of film. So, anyway, if I use the NEX, I won't be picking up on either lens's corners. _________________ Michael

Yes, I remembered that you liked the Canon lens. That's why I am curious.
My camera is the Fujifilm X-E1. |
