  • Just saw all of your plant\flower shots and they’re all phenomenal. I love that you keep\make them dark so it’s like the subject melts into a dark void. You’ve got an awesome style.

    Are you shooting with a 105mm prime? Is it a dedicated macro lens? What kind of lighting do you look for when you shoot?






  • Amateur photographer here. For those wondering, this is aimed at a very strange segment. It’s cheap so it seems to go for beginners who want to have different prime (non zooming) options but don’t want the expense. It’s also lighter.

    The problems:

    • more serious photographers will want better optics and I don’t think this brand is it
    • Sharing optics adds complexity to gear in terms of dust/moisture ingress *Cheap prime lenses are not that expensive. This will cost more *You’re better off with a higher quality zoom lens that covers the range of this system
