I’ve tried many times to take a shots at B&H or Adorama, I really love the IQ, and optic quality, as we’ll as the superb metal build, but ,the price was too high, and now, is bit better, but again hoping that would low down to $999 and I would buy ,.. Lol
Still have the awesome cheap MZD F1.8/45mm, if the Nocticron is as sharp as the MZD75mm I would order now, considering the Olympus is only $700-800 now
i read this nocticron is a superb lens in sharpness..but tbh, its not an absolute priority for a good portrait lens. Not that I dont mind it ofcourse. But I have not seen really good examples from photographers who could make save money for this lens. Sure the build is also top. But sofar the m.zuiko 45 mm is imo the best you can get for little money. I was happy I used it during my prob most important shoot.
Just want to add that I dont think the lens is not worth the money, esp since Canon asks even more for their 85 L f/1.2 (which is imo and experience, a unique portrait lens on its own)
It’s good to have options. This lens is after all faster than the 75mm F1.8 and F1.2 glass has never been cheap. There are people willing to pay big bucks for Leica M system, so I am sure there are some who wouldn’t care for a difference between $700-800
and $1600. I would personally go for the 45 or 75 as well.
Oh nice. went down from incredibly expensive, to very expensive :). Nice and unique lens though.
“$100 off on the Panasonic 100-3000mm lens”
🙂
$400 for the 15mm f1.7 is now approaching reasonable. Hope it stays at that price so I can recommend it to my other m43’s friends. The PL25 at $500 is still a bit pricey imo, but its pretty easy to find second hand for $400 or less.
…Take the IS and the aperture ring off the the Nocticron and then let me know when it is $800.
Then I would consider the purchase. THANKS! 🙂
(or…you can leave the aperture ring on…just make it work with my EM1!!!!!)
I think maybe you should stick to things like pancake kit lenses and novelty fisheye lenscaps. This lens is clearly not something you can appreciate. In fact, perhaps you should consider selling your EM1 and getting something more suitable to your use. Let’s see, what is the current equivalent of an Instamatic?
Clearly you annoy yourself.
That’s your witty reply? If you think Panasonic would drop the OIS or sell this lens for $800.00, then you are foolish beyond words. If used on an Olympus body the aperture ring serves no function, but you think they will cripple those features on a Panasonic lens because they are of no use for an Olympus body? Please! And if you think the lens is only worth $800.00 then you clearly don’t appreciate what it offers and why it is expensive. I have no quarrel with those who say it is a great lens but too expensive for them or someone who thinks it is a couple hundred dollars overpriced, because it might well be. But someone who posts they would only buy it for $800 and objects to its features is simply out of their depth and should stay out of the discussion.
Now, back to the kiddy pool and let the grownups talk…
…..and you annoy everyone else with your ga ga dribble. Now please change your dirty diaper.
Oh my! I have written “ga ga dribble” and I should change my “dirty diaper.” Such a verbal lashing! I suppose you have also complained to your mommy that I have been mean to you? Bobby, you clearly are, as they say, a “special” child in need of greater patience and understanding than I have shown. I forgive you for your comments now that I understand your situation.
Did someone wake up on the wrong side of the bridge?
More of a flame than a troll. I find it distasteful when people make stupid comments about a product because they cannot afford it or it doesn’t suit their individual wants (and seem to think what THEY want is all that matters). Some people fail to understand the merits of something, so they make a snide comment about the product, out of ignorance (like claiming the Nocticron should cost $800 or complaining that it possesses a feature like an aperture ring, that they do not need or understand). The closest parallel to the Nocticron is the Canon 85mm 1.2 lens which sells for $2000.00 and does not have OIS. These are specialty lenses and need to be evaluated as such. I dare say most of us do not need what this lens does and many people really could not make good use of the extremely narrow depth of focus at 1.2. This lens is not worth its price TO ME, for what I do, but but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth what it costs, or thereabouts, or that it isn’t a fantastic lens.
Broil King: I own the Canon 85mm f/1.2L.
I shoot with Olympus bodies.
The Nocticron is overpriced for my EM1. I do not need the IS or the aperture ring. I know what it is. I know how to use it. It just cannot be used on my MFT therefore I am paying for IS, f/ring and Leica branding.
None of that does anything for me. So the lens is worth about $800, to me. That’s all. I understand cameras, inside and out. Was a pro for years and sell out of galleries now. You made an awful lot of assumptions in your post. Now didn’t you. 🙂
$800 sound not reasonable for such lens to drop for offer .
Make it $1200 then I’ll in for sure .
