FujiRumors already shared the leaked Laowa 17mm f/4 Zero-D specs and price back in May here.
Today’s leak from China does not add anything new to the known specs, confirms the already leaked price of $1,249, but I share it because it adds a few sample images.
Hence, for the technical data, MTF charts and lens design, check out this article of May. For the sample images, just go to the bottom of this article.
Tuscany: Look at that terrible Dynamic Range // Dolomites: what a pain those horrible colors // Woman + Kid: that 56/1.2 rendering just destroyed every portrait
Fuji Crop is Crap
How often have we heard influcencers says that Fujifilm is not a professional system, because it is not full frame.
How often have super talented photographers, who hide behind anonymous forum accounts with no portfolio, said that Fujifilm APS-C is not good enough to keep up with their immense talent and creativity.
How often have professional photo reviewers given scientific proof that Fujifilm APS-C can hardly beat an iPhone in terms of image quality.
How often have we heard about how impossible X-Trans files are to edit.
How often have we heard youtubers complaining about the slow manual controls on Fuji cameras, making it impossible to take pictures, because you have to spend half an hour turning dials before pressing the shutter.
And today I will prove, that they were all right!
In the spirit of one of my favorite Fuji blogs, photosfujiscanttake.com, I will list below a series of images, so horrible and painful to the eyes due to the limitations of the APS-C sensor, that you will immediately agree with forum experts, that APS-C is not for Pros.
If you are brave enough, check out the images below.
There is everything wrong, the colors, the dynamic range, the noise, the moments.
