Lens Reviews
Welcome to the review section of my website. What you'll find here is a series of field tests of mostly old, mostly affordable manual focus lenses attached to the Sony A7s, the Sony a6000, and as of 2017, the sony a6500.
The reviews below are organized chronologically (from oldest to newest), while the banner above has the five most recent reviews. You can also browse by manufacturer in the Lens Index section.
If you're a video shooter, you might want to check out the Motion Studies page where you'll find short sample videos shot with some of the lenses.

I just finished the Vivitar Auto-Macro 55 f2.8 review and am currently shooting with a Nikkor 105 f2.5 ai and a Zuiko 24mm f2.8. I'm also planning a couple of shootouts. One between the Canon nFD 100 f2 and the Nikkor 105 f2.5 ai and another between the Carl Zeiss Jena Pencalor 50 f1.8 and the Contax Zeiss 50 f1.7. In addition, the following lenses should be reviewed soon:
Carl Zeiss Jena Pencalor Electric DDR 50 f1.8
