Hey beautiful people! It's your boy Joshua Martin.
This video is about the lens review about the SLR Magic 8mm F/4 ultra-wide-angle lens. 8mm ~ 16mm in full-frame equivalent is very useful to capture extra view into your frame.
If you want to follow me Kit here is the link: kit.com/joshuamartinstudios or check out all of the links below.
- Vignetting is apparent at F4
- CA is average
- Don't expect to get amazing Bokeh with this lens (it's not made for that)
Lens details:
- Focal Length: 8mm
- Comparable 35mm Focal Length: 16 mm
- Aperture:
- Maximum: F/4
- Minimum: F/16
- Camera Mount Type: Micro Four Thirds
- An angle of View: 140°
- Minimum Focus Distance: 3.94" (10 cm)
- Elements/Groups: 9/8
- Diaphragm Blades: 7
- Filter Thread Front: 43 mm
- Front: 52 mm
- Dimensions (DxL): Approx. 1.81 x 1.63" (46.1 x 41.4 mm)
- Weight: 3.88 oz (110 g)
Things I love:
- Low wide angle lens distortion
- Lightweight
- Perform the best when set to F5.6 or F8
Things I don't like:
- The aperture and Focusing rights feel cheap and easy to break
- F4 image quality isn't great.
