Got the Pentax 17 and I kept it in my jacket pocket for a sunny and properly freezing weekend. No special shoot, no “testing day”, no planning. Just real life. Walk around the city, grab coffee, shoot whatever looks interesting, and try not to lose feeling in your fingers while doing it.
This is going to be a short review, as I didn’t spend too much time with this lens. I bought it, quickly realized it wasn’t for me, and ended up selling it.
My goal has always been to carry a camera everywhere, and with the Fujifilm GFX, that's just not possible. It’s too big and heavy.
So, I started looking for other alternatives and decided to give Leica a try.
I was seeking a fast 50mm lens with close focusing capabilities, so I recently purchased the Thypoch Simera 50mm f/1.4 ASPH for my Leica M10.
While it seemed like a promising addition to my kit, I ultimately decided to return it quite quickly. In this review, I’ll explain why.
The longer I’ve been doing photography, the more I’ve come to appreciate shooting solo. In this blog, I want to share some reasons why I love it and why you might want to give it a try too.
