#Priime for mac review full#
but when I have seen one of these lenses completely dismantled, I found that reality beats my expectations by a lot! Regarding image quality, I had already found full res images online, shot with lenses that are often vilified, and the result was not bad at all, especially considering the price. I have never opened a chinese prime, and I don't even own one.
As a long time Leica rangefinder user, who used to work with not-so-bad cameras as Linhof and Pentax 6x7 (and many other MF and LF brands), I believe I have developed a certain taste for well made mechanics. I feel sorry for all the people who would consider this kind of lenses very differently, if only they weren't "chinese". Below is a gallery of sample images taken with the lens: As displayed in the illustration above, all you need to do is remove the front cap, unscrew the cover, flip the cap over and screw it onto the lens’ 77mm front filter thread. The lens also features a reversible lens cap that doubles as an integrated lens hood.
TTartisan has included a built-in tripod mount towards the rear of the lens, which should help to keep weight distribution more even when used on a tripod/monopod. Other features include a ten-blade aperture diaphragm, a one meter (3.3’) minimum focusing distance and an aperture range of F1.25 through F16.ĭue to the large elements needed to get such a fast aperture at a 90mm focal length, the lens is rather unwieldy, weighing 1013g (2.23lbs) and measuring in at 97mm (3.82”) long and 82mm in diameter. The lens, which is clearly designed to look like a first-party Leica lens, is constructed of 11 elements in 7 groups, including four high-refractive index elements. Chinese optics manufacturer TTartisan has announced its latest lens, the 90mm F1.25 for Leica M-mount camera systems.
