Tried a manual focus 85mm 1.4 samyanglensglobal on my R5. I borrowed it from mpbcom and it really surprised me. It’s 8x cheaper than my usual setup, but has real character and renders color beautifully. I shared more about it in Process issue 184.
The first 6 images are from two recent Creatives In/AMS shoots — my new series on the people shaping Amsterdam’s creative scene and the spaces they work in. You’ll see Alina from helloitspansy and Ahmad & Paul from casaguitarra.
Last 4 slides are a few BTS moments, including some mini musical moments.
Ever fallen in love with a manual lens on a modern digital body? I’m looking to try some more after this experience, any suggestions are welcome.
