Video Comparison New Canon EF 35mm f/1.4 L ii BR VS. Original Canon 35mm f/1.4 L

This is a video review is about the new insanely improved Canon EF 35mm 1.4 L ii BR USM Lens and also compared to the older original version Canon EF 35mm f/1.4 L USM which is also a well known amazing lens. However the new one will surprise you in ways you may not have expected, or at least this dramatic. A new game changer to say the least.

Sunpak Auto 522 Thyristor Tele Fresnel Attachment Flash Review Test-1
This is an entirely new page.
I will be adding to it from time to time comparing power output of flashes and will also show the unique light patterns of each flash. I really enjoyed making this page and am excited to add more soon.

Olympus oily aperture 50mm f/1.4 OM

Olympus oily aperture 50mm f:1.4 OM MF
Try this before you pull the aperture apart in your lens. It may be a simpler fix in the mount. This is not a guarantee but a quick check. If you see oil on the blades then you will have to pull the aperture. However this might be a simple fix.

Clean aperture oil 28mm 2.8 Promaster Marexar

aperture oil 28mm 2.8 Promaster Marexar
This video shows how one can disassemble, repair, and reassemble these Promaster MC and Marexar CX MC 28mm 2.8 lenses. The problem is not always the aperture but more likely just the mechanism in the read mount that gets sticky from old grease.

Chinon 50mm f/1.9 Auto

Chinon 50mm 1.9 Auto-1
This little Chinon 50mm f/1.9 Auto is a lightweight lens but is built pretty cheaply. Also Optically it is simply not too exciting. Chinon usually produces some decent lenses, but this is not one of them.

Chinon 55mm f/1.7 Auto

Chinon 55mm 1.7 Auto-1
This little, well-built Chinon 55mm f/1.7 Auto lens is a fantastic lens stopped down a bit. It is a little soft wide open but makes a good low light lens with an adaptable M42 mount.
