Dear Ghosts,

For the camera nerds that will inevitably ask, the macro and scenes with the blue jacket were shot with the bmcc6kff and the yellow and black jacket scenes were shot with the sigma FP. My copy was 4200rmb which is about 600 usd, there's wear on the lens hood, mount looks refurbished. Regardless, good performance, I think I was a little harsh in the video as I use superior Otus lenses for everything. The 15mm will be optically inferior compared to the rest of the set as it’s an extreme focal length.

I’m quite fond of this lens already, very fun to use and the microjitters are less pronounced with such a wide focal length. I didn’t use stabilization to avoid crop to show you the full scope, however there are two or three scenes where I really messed up and had to use perspective stabilization. Also enjoyed the results with the monopod, will definitely try to use it more. Other Milvus lens review coming up when I get the chance to test it more. Absolutely recommend this lens, with the nano primes just released I doubt zeiss will upgrade the lineup anytime soon. The other ultra wides like the supremes are out of reach, nano primes look sharp but weird rendering also Sony e mount only, other options would be laowa12mm or sigma 14mm, once again the rendering on those don’t have the same zeiss pop, but if you don’t care about that look then those are some great alternatives.

Spend wisely.

Love,
CleverG
