▸ 28mm f1.4

This is one of the Thypoch Simera f/1.4 lenses I couldn’t stop using once I finally gave it a proper test. You get modern coatings and sharpness, but with a hint of vintage character—plus that 3D pop render I love. The flare control is beautiful and the bokeh wide open is genuinely stunning.

Pros

  • +Modern sharpness without looking clinically sharp
  • +Pleasing roll-off toward the edges
  • +Controls harsh light well with attractive flare
  • +Strong subject separation and bokeh at f/1.4
  • +Looks fantastic on the Nikon Zf (full metal, compact)

Cons

  • -Manual focus only
  • -I don’t recommend the Z-mount version versus M-mount + adapter
