Review on 7Artisans Ultra Thin Fujifilm Compact Mirrorless by Tony Ledbetter

Okay. After a lot of negotiation with the nice folks at 7Artisans (after they sent the wrong product), I got the right lens and put it on my X-Pro2 to walk around the neighborhood before the sun went down. The lens is about the same size and weight as the body cap, which takes a bit of getting used to as I usually hold the lens in my left hand to be able to change aperture settings and/or focus. I use a lot of vintage lenses with adapters so it's nice to take a break from what looks like a brick on the front of the camera body! And since I use a lot of vintage lenses, I don't mind the strange color rendering I see when I first shoot with this 7Artisans lens. I added the preset to the RAW file and I liked the result (see the photo of the cloud reflection in the window). What I really like about this lens is that there is no focus or aperture adjustment. In fact, I only have shutter speed and ISO under control. I found these restrictions very loose. If I had to find a fault it would be the flashy dial style which I'll probably paint over so I can be more careful when photographing streets. B&W example: SOOC jpeg with Acros -R, ISO 200, 1/250.
