Your nighttime shots are beautiful. I love the way you process them. They're cinematic in mood, color, and style. You're a talented young photographer.
Your photography is outstanding and your editing skills are extraordinarily good - I'm jealous. However I had to stop the video and go and take some stress-reducing medication before I could continue watching you throw that lovely lens up in the air continually.
The 50 f2 was my first Fuji prime. I was handling the XC 15-45 and a few cheap Chinese MF lenses and the Fuji 50 was such a relief! Awesome lens, no complaints from me. Now the 35 1.4 is living on my Fujifilm, but it's so much fun swapping that with the 50.
Same story I have 15-45mm and ussr lens Helios 44 with an adapter from my film camera Zenit. So, now I’m trying to find out which is better to buy - 50mm f2, f1, or 56mm 1.2. There’s a huge difference in the price in my country
I've always enjoyed using my 45mm (90FF equiv) for micro four thirds which is the same as this Fuji 50mm. These lenses are so small you can pack this lens and a 24 or 35mm prime, that's a great travel combination. 90mm primes are great for street photography and I feel like they are very underrated. They are small and give you a bit of space from your subject, but not too much space like a voyeuristic telephoto zoom. Also the compression, light gathering ability of the fast aperture and shallow depth of field is quite nice. The small size puts people at ease versus a huge lens pointing at people. I also like to use it to pick out details, like the shoes of someone walking or the hands of a guy cooking street food. To do that with a 24mm lens would be impractical, you'd have to get really close to their feet lol. This 50mm Fuji is perfect for doing that.
My son has the 23, 35, and 50 Fujicrons. The 50mm one is also his favorite. I own the 35mm f/2 and it is a great lens, especially for night photography.
I just shot a music festival in my town, a dozen stages, large outdoor, small intimate indoor and many busker corners. I have many Fujifilm lenses, and I was going to be out for about 10 to 12 hours. I grabbed the 50mm f/2 put it on my X-T3 threw 4 spare batteries in my pocket and did the whole event with this minimal set up. The results were great! Not a single missed focus. Flare was well controlled even with stage lights in the frame. 90% of my shot were made at f/2, and I never felt that I wished it was faster. Every time that I think about getting the 56mm, I go back and look at the results from the 50mm f/2, and I'm more than happy with it.
Im glad I found this review. Ive had an XT4 for about 2 years now and Im in the market for a 50mm. I thought about getting a cheaper all manual lens but I would love to have a weather sealed lens for when I go hiking or out on the city streets.
Thanks for the review video Eren. I own both Fujifilm 50mm f2 and 56mm f56 f1.2 (the old version one). In my opinion, these two lens are not much comparable and can't be used instead of each other even if their focal length are pretty close. I use 50mm f2 more for daily life shoots in my everyday bag and for the street photography on my X-T30 (sometimes on my X-T4 as well). But i prefer to use the 56mm f1.2 almost always on my X-T4 more for the planned shoots which needs more equipments like fashion, product, stock photography and etc in the studios or outdoor. First i got 56mm f1.2 and i thought i can use it for both of the scenario. But i realized with time that the lighter and more discreet you are, the better when you do street photography. And these Fuji cron lenses makes it perfectly possible, especially when they are combined with a camera like X-T30 or X-E4. I even try to go with 27mm pancake lens as much as possible but this is another topic. The famous photographer Chase Jarvis said “the best camera is the one that's with you". I completely agree and that's why i wanted to get the 50mm f2 even if i already have the 56mm f1.2, though in many reviews people are comparing these two lenses and discussing as if they can be used instead of each other. But my experiences showed me that these two lenses made by Fujifilm for the different needs and the purposes even if they have kind of common versatilities too like being good at portraits.But still, i think 50mm f2 definitely can't be as perfect as 56mm f1.2 when the comparison is about shooting portraits because of the classical 85mm focal length (of full frame equivalent) for the portrait shoots and because of the extra faster aperture speed, especially in the low light conditions. But recently, i am reading and watching lots of positive reviews about Sigma 56mm f1.4 which is relatively a new lens, at least for Fujifilm X mount cameras. It's highly rated & recommended and found "best value for the money" in almost all the reviews. I think only the downside of this lens for me is missing the aperture ring, but i think i can get use it even if i really like it a lot. Apart from that the lens look almost excellent with every aspects; the sharpness, contrast, color rendering, AF speed & silence, and especially the lightness and compactness with only 280 gram weight even with a fast f1.4 aperture. Moreover, it's literally half price of Fujifilm 56mm f1.2. So, now i am a bit confused, because when i decided to get the 50mm f2 even if i have 56mm f1.2, my main reason and motivation was the compact size and the light weight for having a possibility to use it for daily life shoots and street photography. Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 is two times heavier than 50mm f2 (the new version of 56mm is even bigger and heavier the old version), that's why it made sense to get 50mm f2 lens too for me. The difference is considerably big between the these two lenses for the size and weight (over 200 grams). But if i have Sigma 56mm f1.4, i think that 80 gram difference is quite negligible when i consider getting that extra light by having f1.4 aperture even for daily shoots and street photography which would be amazing! So, i have a strong intuition that Sigma 56mm f1.4 would work for both of my scenarios which is much more budget friendly and minimal by having only one light & compact lens instead of two lens; one big & bulky and one light & compact. On the other hand, i didn't read or watch any review yet which compares the new version of Fujifilm f1.2 R WR and Sigma 56mm f1.4. All the current comparisons are between old version of Fuji 56mm f1.2 and Sigma f1.4. But if the new version of Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 performs significantly better than Sigma f1.4, i think still would prefer to keep my Fujifilm 50mm f2 and upgrade the Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 and end up staying with both as i do now. I watch your videos and as i know you are using only the Fujifilm lenses and maybe not interested to use the other lenses from the third part companies. But i am sure at least you heard something about the lenses made by the third companies for the Fujifilm X mount cameras, especially about Sigma which has a Japan brand with a high reputation. I was using Canon cameras before i shift Fujifilm and Sigma lenses were my favorites. But they didn't produce any lens for Fujifilm for a long time. And they succeeded to take my attention with their first lens for Fujifilm cameras. I was wondering what's your idea about having only Sigma 56mm f1.4 instead of having both Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 and 50mm f2 since it looks like it has capability to work alone in many needs and purposes with its light weight & compactness while offering a high quality optic performance with the sharpness, contrast, color rendering, AF speed and silence and most importantly with the fast f1.4 aperture which is the main determinative factor for many users and i think for me too. Especially, if you had a chance to use and review the new version of Fujifilm 56mm f1.2 and compare it with this game changer light weight & compact lens Sigma 56mm f1.4 (at least by having a look at the specs and other reviews, sample photos and etc) would be great! Thanks in advance.
Huge thanks Ozgur and I agree with your thoughts not he 50f2 and fuji 56 1.2. As for the new 56 1.2 and the Sigma, I've yet to use either of these however, later this month I will be getting a couple Sigma lenses to test out. I'll also be testing the new Fuji 56 1.2 so will be able to compare. At the moment though I'd just stick with the gear you have now, I have the 35 1.4 and am holding off going for the 33. The older fuji lenses have a slightly different look which I prefer.
Love this Lens! Your previous videos where you covered it convinced me to get it. I think it's a greater start prime for people who are wanting to get into street but are a bit nervous about photographing people.
Eren tossing the lens is so distracting having hard time focusing on the content and it also feels a little disrespect towards your viewers, i am sure this is not your intention. Otherwise Thanks for the great content.
Great review. And I must say, great photography. It’s rare that a photo RUclipsr can actually shoot well. I didn’t realize until now that I wanted this lens. I did however order the 50 1.9 manual lens, it’ll be in the mail box In a couple days. But, I may have to pick this up as well.
Throw your lens all you want. Very easy to have a pillow just below the frame... superb night work. The guy with the hat...hand held night work this sharp...If I had the 90 I wouldn't be able to do these shots. The mag would add too much shake.
one thing that's good about the lens hood is in the rain because it is so big and long it litterally keeps every drop even in a blizzard off the lens lol. but indeed the look sucks. but I found it really functional in that case, especially with the moth rain we have often in Thee Netherlands its really handy.
Great shots man, I just recently sold the 60mm for my XT2, I also let the 23mm f2 in Silver find a new home to boot, the latter was just neither here or there for me. But this 50mm f2 might be a lovely new affair!
@@erenjamTook me long enough but I finally bought it. $400 Aussie dollars second hand complete with front and rear caps and the hood minus the box. A stellar performer. Really happy with it and short of my departed 60mm - best bokeh to date from my Fuji prime lineup.
I have recently bought the Nikon 50mm F1.4 and Nikon 85mm F 1.8 for my Nikon D5500 i intend to purchase the Nikon 85mm F 1.4 or Sigma EX 85mm F1.4 aswell as the Sigma EX F 105 F1.4 and Nikon F 1.4
1:02 isnt a 50mm on a full frame just a 50mm but a 50mm on ASP-C is 75-80mm equivalent because it's a crop sensor? Feels like it got reversed in your video. Great shots btw :)
Wow, I love your pictures! Looking so surreal/nostalgic and modern in 1. Also, what do you think of Sigma 56mm F1.4? I'm currently considering one of either Fuji 50mm F2 or Sigma 56mm F1.4 and cannot find any side to side image quality comparison...
Do you have a video on, or can you share tips on how to get your auto focus setting adjusted properly? I have the X-T5, and it doesn't seem to be focusing at all.
I’m debating between the 16-55 and the 16-80 I was leaning the 16-80 because people have said the 16-55 is so big it catches attention and intimidated people. So I’m surprised you are so happy with the compactness of the 50 F2 but still love the 16-55 What do you think?
The 16-55 is noticeably bigger and heavier but when travelling it's worth it for the convenience. For street photography though I do prefer primes like the 50f2.
Hİ Eren. Your video is very inspiring.considering buy one but undecided on which one to buy. 50 or 35. I already have 16mm.which one would you buy 50 or 35? Keep up the good work mate..
Looking forward to some tutorial of yours of how you edit your own street photography during daytime. I really appreciated your night street photography Lightroom editing video and would be very curious to see how you edit photos shot in daylight :)
Just a note on your presentation, the constant throwing of the lens gets very distracting. I understand the nervousness, but rather put it down and cut to other images. I couldn't continue watching cause of the lens throwing distraction.
Hey man, Great reviews.. Do you ever bother using the lens hoods with your F2 Set of lenses? I also find that they detract from the compact minimal feel of the lenses but i'm not sure if it effects the quality of the photos not having them fitted?
Amazing shots and one of the best reviews for this lens, maybe even the best bro! 👏 You just show how great 50mm really is 💪 I have this lens and it is my most used lens in the system. One key advantage - I shoot a lot of product photography with 50 f2 and it is perfect for that since it has fantastic minimal focus that I like to mention compared to 50 f1 and 56 f1.2, almost more than double. And it has perfect sharpness to bokeh ratio, contrast and color saturation for my taste...and acctually I like how it looks with lens hood on my x-t2 and x-t3, it gives them little bit more retro vibe 😊
hi nice work I am highly considering the 50mm, by the way, which film recipe ar you using in your color work thy looks very nice and saturated can you snd them please
Love your Videos… I have this lens and love it. Can I ask if I can still get good shots for night photography. I just can’t justify buying the f1.2 at the moment. Thanks 🙏
If I had seen this video 1 month ago I probably would have bought this, but instead I went with the 50mm 1.2 from TTartisans, and I have been super happy with it. Either way, great vid Eren
One of Fujifilm's under rated lenses, and yes get a smaller lens hood online. As for your throwing the lens in the air constantly, that's very distracting lol :p
I am watching the review videos because I have a lens in my mind and I am considering buying it. You made a good review, but it would be nice if you didn't keep throwing the lens in the air.
Eren, great review. Your determination to keep tossing that lens up in the air while your talking will get you into trouble with your viewers. 😂
😂 🤘🏼 thanks Mike
Exactly, it seemed like a good review but I stopped watching due to the tossing of the lens in the air which was very distracting.
Please…stop…tossing…your…lens!
I wouldn't want to see you toss a $2500 Leica lens like that 😬
Your nighttime shots are beautiful. I love the way you process them. They're cinematic in mood, color, and style. You're a talented young photographer.

I feel you on that XC 15-45mm, bought my xt30ii with that lens and immediately bought me some primes 50mm and the 35mm ones, night and day difference.

🙏🙏 can't go wrong with the 50f2
Please dont throw the lens up again and again. I get stressed.
🤹🏻
You are the best street photographer i have ever seen.
very clear explanation, great practical samples as reference.. worth for to me to save your clip in my folder. Thank you very much.
Huge thanks
Absolutely beautiful photographs using the Fuji 50mm lens
🙏🏼
Wonderful pictures - you really show what this lens is capable of. Thanks for the review.
thank you!
I picked this up about 2 months ago and I love it almost as much as my 35mm f2.
Two of my favourite lenses right there

Thank you for you opinion. It was useful to dive into your conclusions
The 50mmf2 has the best micro contrast among the other Fuji lenses. This is very handy for BW images
yh really useful in that respect too!
This is good to know. Thanks
One of my absolute favorites from Fujinon line-up! Also: your photos are of the highest quality! Impressive! Great eye for composition! 👑
Huge thanks!
Your photography is like your favourite barrister's coffee - smooth and rich! SUBSCRIBED
Haha, best review yet!!! big thanks Warren 🙏🏼
Love this Lens! Your previous videos where you covered it convinced me to get it. I think it's a greater start prime for people who are wanting to get into street but are a bit nervous about photographing people.
Thank Will! totally agree
I love your photos and your videos.
Well done. Keep it up!
Greetings from Italy
Thanks Marco!
I just got this lens last week. So far, I'm really enjoying it! It's definitely sharp.
Awesome, its a great lens!
Eren tossing the lens is so distracting having hard time focusing on the content and it also feels a little disrespect towards your viewers, i am sure this is not your intention. Otherwise Thanks for the great content.
Noted! 🤹
Great insight and your photos are just breathtaking!
YEEES LENS JUGGLING IS BACK!
I'll pause the video and grab a heart pill to avoid a heart attack. I'll be back.
😂🙏🏼
Can’t wait to upgrade my 56 to the mark 2. If they could keep the exact same optics with a linear motor that would be perfect.
From what I've read that is what will happen, much like the 23 1.4
Dope pics, dope video, dope juggling as usual...😉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
🤘🏼 thank you
I already own the Fujinon 23mm f2 in black on my Fuji X-T5 so I'm gonna buy this one in silver and I think it is a no brainer to me.
Great review. And I must say, great photography. It’s rare that a photo RUclipsr can actually shoot well. I didn’t realize until now that I wanted this lens. I did however order the 50 1.9 manual lens, it’ll be in the mail box In a couple days. But, I may have to pick this up as well.
thank you!
Throw your lens all you want. Very easy to have a pillow just below the frame... superb night work. The guy with the hat...hand held night work this sharp...If I had the 90 I wouldn't be able to do these shots. The mag would add too much shake.
you got me 😂 huge thanks!! yh longer the FL harder it gets to keep these sharp at night!
Thanks, I was going to buy the 33mm f1.4 Viltrox, but after I saw this video, I will buy the Fujinon 50mm f2, great videos
50f2 is great!
Beautiful creative pictures. Love the colors
Huge thanks 🙏🏼
one thing that's good about the lens hood is in the rain because it is so big and long it litterally keeps every drop even in a blizzard off the lens lol. but indeed the look sucks. but I found it really functional in that case, especially with the moth rain we have often in Thee Netherlands its really handy.
Awesome photos and pp. Who doesn't want a 50 f2 after watching this?!?
Great shots man, I just recently sold the 60mm for my XT2, I also let the 23mm f2 in Silver find a new home to boot, the latter was just neither here or there for me. But this 50mm f2 might be a lovely new affair!
Thank you! yh the 50mm is such a. good lens
@@erenjamTook me long enough but I finally bought it. $400 Aussie dollars second hand complete with front and rear caps and the hood minus the box. A stellar performer. Really happy with it and short of my departed 60mm - best bokeh to date from my Fuji prime lineup.
I realize this review is a bit old, but I'm thinking of picking this lens up to go with my X-T5. Have you shot this lens on the 40mp sensor?
Wish you stop tossing the lens but great review, thank you… need to buy one now
🤹🏻 thank you!
I have recently bought the Nikon 50mm F1.4 and Nikon 85mm F 1.8 for my Nikon D5500 i intend to purchase the Nikon 85mm F 1.4 or Sigma EX 85mm F1.4 aswell as the Sigma EX F 105 F1.4 and Nikon F 1.4
What are your settings and how to you grade your photos? Looks awesome
got a couple episodes on here where I talk about settings and editing. Photos are graded using my presets
1:02 isnt a 50mm on a full frame just a 50mm
but a 50mm on ASP-C is 75-80mm equivalent because it's a crop sensor?
Feels like it got reversed in your video.
Great shots btw :)
mate I love your content - really do but... stopped watching due to the tossing of the lens in the air which was very distracting =(((
Done Deal! I just ordered one...
Can’t go wrong with this lens!
Wow, I love your pictures! Looking so surreal/nostalgic and modern in 1.
Also, what do you think of Sigma 56mm F1.4? I'm currently considering one of either Fuji 50mm F2 or Sigma 56mm F1.4 and cannot find any side to side image quality comparison...
Thank you! yet to try the sigma lens out
Beautiful images, great job!
Thank you!
Nice one bud. I think you sold it to me! After the 35mm 1.4 this is probably going to be my next lens! 👌
Thanks dude! You won't regret it
By the time this video ended my BPM was at 180 seing you flip this lens constantly . :) Now i want this lens !
😂
I am having 50.2 which is so good to use and bring easily. Thanks for sharing. Can I get to know that what is the name of the clock on your table?
It's a clock from Muji.
@@erenjam Really!! Thanks!!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Do you have a video on, or can you share tips on how to get your auto focus setting adjusted properly? I have the X-T5, and it doesn't seem to be focusing at all.
XT5 episode on all the settings I use coming soon!
I’m debating between the 16-55 and the 16-80
I was leaning the 16-80 because people have said the 16-55 is so big it catches attention and intimidated people. So I’m surprised you are so happy with the compactness of the 50 F2 but still love the 16-55
What do you think?
Super awesome photos btw absolutely love them. Got a new subscriber
Huge thanks John!
The 16-55 is noticeably bigger and heavier but when travelling it's worth it for the convenience. For street photography though I do prefer primes like the 50f2.
The cyborg arm with microphone. Cool!
complimenti per le fotografie.. fantastiche!
Thank you!
Hvae you considerred juggling as a sideline? Watching you toss around the lens is hilarious!
🤹 its my full-time job
oh please drop it
🤹🏻
Helpful review and great images.
thank you!
Hİ Eren. Your video is very inspiring.considering buy one but undecided on which one to buy. 50 or 35. I already have 16mm.which one would you buy 50 or 35?
Keep up the good work mate..
Hi Burak, the 35 is more versatile, I love the 50 as well but if I had to choose between the two, it'll be the 35
Very cinematic photographs
Thank you!
Do like your photos and the colour grading, but waving the lens around is too distracting.
Thank you! 🤹🏻
I have the 23 f2 and the 50 f2. Those live in my camera and the good news is they don't take up tons of space in my bag either.
I believe my anxiety was kicking in with every toss of that lens 🤦🏽♂️ lol
🤹🏻
Great review dude!
Big thanks bro!
Respect! Impressive pictures! Keep on tracking!
Thank you!
I just ordered this lens. Great video.
thank you!
how it is with image stabilization? Does it have ois?
No in the lens but works well with the xt4 and xt5 IBIS
Looking forward to some tutorial of yours of how you edit your own street photography during daytime. I really appreciated your night street photography Lightroom editing video and would be very curious to see how you edit photos shot in daylight :)
I'll be getting some more daytime editing and POV content in soon! Huge thanks
Just a note on your presentation, the constant throwing of the lens gets very distracting. I understand the nervousness, but rather put it down and cut to other images. I couldn't continue watching cause of the lens throwing distraction.
🤹🏻 point taken!
This inspired me to use my 50mm on X-S10, Viltrox F1.4 though
absolutely love this focal length! hope it serves you well
Love your review!
thank you!
I had this one, it is a great Lens but i felt it wasnt useful paired with my 35 1.4. I sold it quickly after
35 and 50 are pretty close, if I would have just two primes it would be either the 18/23 along with a 50 or 35.
Please don't throw the lens up every time. It distracts greatly from what you have to say.
🤹🏻
Which lens out of the f2s do you like the most for street photography?
Hey man, Great reviews.. Do you ever bother using the lens hoods with your F2 Set of lenses? I also find that they detract from the compact minimal feel of the lenses but i'm not sure if it effects the quality of the photos not having them fitted?
Huge thanks, For the F2s I don't bother with the hood, makes no difference to the image quality.
@@erenjam cool as, yeah I might leave them in the bag, especially the 50mm hood
one other question, In your opinion, do you feel the xf27mm is superior to the 23mm these days due to its tiny weight & size? or still a 23mm F2 man?
Thank you!
Thank you Michaela!
Excellent review
Thanks Adam!
You didnt mention the WR 28mm F2.8 (40mm equiv FOV). Weird.
Thank you for the video! I need to use my 50mm f/2 more. Have you ever heard of a replacement, third party lens hood for this lens?
thank you! couple comments on this, will be having a look around for a better looking hood
@@erenjam I'd love one of those rectangle style lens hoods from 3rd parties in metal!
Great video but could you try to throw the lens a few more times?
😂 Thanks Greg!
damn i wanna more info about those color in this images! looooveee it so much!
🤘🏼 thank you
Which simulation did you shoot? Looks amazing
Thank you! All the photos are edited using my presets
Great shots.
thank you!
Adınız Türk adına benziyor. İ am from Azerbaijan and I love Turkish people.
Thank you kardeş
Amazing shots and one of the best reviews for this lens, maybe even the best bro! 👏
You just show how great 50mm really is 💪
I have this lens and it is my most used lens in the system.
One key advantage - I shoot a lot of product photography with 50 f2 and it is perfect for that since it has fantastic minimal focus that I like to mention compared to 50 f1 and 56 f1.2, almost more than double.
And it has perfect sharpness to bokeh ratio, contrast and color saturation for my taste...and acctually I like how it looks with lens hood on my x-t2 and x-t3, it gives them little bit more retro vibe 😊
Huge thanks bro! yh the min focus is really good, makes it perfect for food and product shots too
@@erenjam I have a 35mm F1.4 and want to buy 1 WR lens. I'm thinking either a XF23mm F2 or an XF50, which one do you reccommend for street? Thank you🙏
hi nice work I am highly considering the 50mm, by the way, which film recipe ar you using in your color work thy looks very nice and saturated can you snd them please
🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you, edited using my presets
It came in on ti lighting fast
On my copy of the 50mm f2 you can hear the aperture blades when you turn on the camera. Anyone else experience this?
hmmm which camera are you using?
great video and images!
Thank you!
Love your Videos… I have this lens and love it. Can I ask if I can still get good shots for night photography. I just can’t justify buying the f1.2 at the moment. Thanks 🙏
Thank you! Yeah some of my favourite night photos, including the one in the thumbnail was shot on the 50f2
Any one else having I slight heart attack everytime he flips that thing in the air?
🤹🏻😄
hey i am keen to know whether it is good for focus videos??
I haven't shot too much video with this lens to be sure but from what I've seen its good for video, especially with the XT4
eren: i love this lens
50 f2: please help🤪
Thanks Jennifer 😁🙏🏼
@@erenjam no, you.. thank you.. haha.. kidding aside, i always love my 50mm f2, and i agree most of your comments 👍
Are you shooting raw or with film simulation or your own recipe??
I use Classic Chrome but shoot in JPEG & Raw, these are all edited off raw but I do use the classic chrome profile in LR
@@erenjam ty
If I had seen this video 1 month ago I probably would have bought this, but instead I went with the 50mm 1.2 from TTartisans, and I have been super happy with it. Either way, great vid Eren
Hey to test out the Attisans lenses, hear lots of good things about them
Every time you throw the lens up in the air I get one step closer to shitting my pants
😂🤹
One of Fujifilm's under rated lenses, and yes get a smaller lens hood online. As for your throwing the lens in the air constantly, that's very distracting lol :p
😂, I'll have a look around for some hoods!
I am watching the review videos because I have a lens in my mind and I am considering buying it. You made a good review, but it would be nice if you didn't keep throwing the lens in the air.
At first, i tought that instead of a left arm, you had a Microphone shaped prosthesis :$
Great review! Loved everything except you tossing that lens up and down :)
🤹🏻😄 huge thanks
its really too big for what it is the more I think about it. it must be the AF junk because a lens like this should be hella small.
Jeez fella I wouldn’t want to be buying that lens off you after that juggling act 😅
😂
Won’t you just STOP juggling with your lenses man! 😂
Condivido ottima lente ciao .
grazie!
Stop tossing the lens, it is disrespectful to the brand and creators of the lens. it does not ad anything to your review, it is only annoying.
