Review on πŸ“· Panasonic Summilux Lens 25mm f/1.4 Asph DG (H-X025E): High-Performance Photography Gear at Its Finest by Chiyo Ogawa ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything about the purchase suits me, a very necessary product.

If you are going to take portraits, the word "bokeh" pleases the ear and the eye, often adjust the focus manually, especially on a camera with a pick - this panel is for you. For other genres like landscapes, street and travel, you can get by with budget options without losing picture quality. Different pros: Bokeh, it's a background blur - very similar to a real watering can. Pleasant and understandable operation of the manual focus ring. Popular 46mm filter thread. Has some cons Strangely enough - sharpness, at 1.4 the picture, even in the center, is no good. It looks decent starting from 2.0 and is already excellent at 4, which is confirmed by lenstip tests and other sites with graphs. You can buy much cheaper 25 / 1.7 which will be even a little sharper at 2.0. As a result, it turns out that we paid for 1.4, but in fact we have 2.0 and we don’t want to open it wider, except for the very darkness.
