Hello, my name is Le Minh Bui a.k.a. Langstrum.
I shared few of my reviews before on SAR, and today I want to publish my in-depth review of SLR Magic 25mm f/1.4 Cine lens. Since I volunteered for the lens reviewing program, I got the lens early from the company. The reason I’m interested in this lens is the need of a compact, wide and fast lens for my A7ii. There are some other choices but most of them are DSLR type, hence very huge in size, which is not comfortable for me to carry in my bag when I travel. I already had Sony FE 28mm f/2 and Canon FD 24mm f/2, they fit to my parameters, but they’re not fast and focus closely enough to produce nice close up photos or for general low light photography. Well, on paper the SLR Magic 25mm f/1.4 seems to be a nice alternative, and it’s a cine lens that I can use for video whenever I need.
