Review on 📷 Panasonic Summilux Lens 25mm f/1.4 Asph DG (H-X025E): High-Performance Photography Gear at Its Finest by Nakaishi Kiyoshi ᠌

Must have lens - on m 4/3 - crop of matrix 2, i. E. for full frame - 50 mm, classics of the genre - portrait "fifty dollars" 1.4. Excellent sharpness (even at 1.4), fast focusing. Tested even in studio shooting (with external light sources). The manual focus ring may be a little light - when it is still needed (in difficult lighting conditions), but this is already a nitpick. Leica is not written on the lens in vain, I think the glass is definitely worth my money. Frustrating is the lack of protection from atmospheric phenomena (do not shoot in the rain), an uncomfortable hood ("rectangular", a la "pro retro video camera", the reverse side is not put on for ease of transportation, worn separately, overall), not a very typical diameter for filters - 46 mm - UV-protection is easy to find, but under ND it is already probably worth looking for adapter rings . Expectations from the glass were fully justified, definitely recommended for purchase.
