Simera 28mm f/1.4 Z/M/E/RF/X Mount Full-Frame Manual Lens

I wanted to change up my approach to photography by going with something that would force me to slow down, form my shots and take in the moment before capturing it. I looked into this lens after a filmmaker I follow showcased the cinema lenses and after a lot of review watching and research I decided to give it a try. I have to say, it’s an impressive lens and possibly one of my new favorites! I’ve gotten so used to my camera’s auto focus capabilities so the challenge this lens has brought to my more casual photography has been exciting to say the least. Looking forward to getting the hang of this thing and adding to the quality of my photo catalog!

Excellent build quality, lots of fun to shoot with and the Zf focus peaking makes it easy to get great shots with this lens. It's a beautiful design with very satisfying mechanics. The Z mount looks great on this body, although the silver is ever so slightly different from Nikon silver. It is slightly too heavy for the Zf unless you use an additional grip such that it will fall forward when set down. My only complaint is with shipping; I didn't find out until the day before delivery to the US that UPS wanted 20% of the purchase price to actually deliver it. I'm glad I checked the tracking to find that out before they showed up but it would have been nice to know well in advance.

Superbe photo quality and feels really nice to manipulate. Would've been a 5 star rating if the end caps would actually hold still. They would always fall off when the camera is on my motorcycle bag. Would've also been super nice if it was a chipped lense, to get the photos info.
