No problem! When you really pixel peep you will see all sorts of differences... BUT the thing to remember is would you actually notice this stuff when watching well shot footage on an average sized screen, that's in a good edit? Probably not.

While I understand the two may perhaps go hand-in-hand, when you say the Argus lenses look “cleaner” than the Vespids, do you mean cleaner from a strictly technical standpoint (chromatic aberrations, color accuracy, barrel distortion, etc.) or cleaner as in more “clinical” in terms of a more overall subjective look and feel? Fantastic video by the way!

More from a technical stand point, sharper, less CA, I don't think they look that clinical.

Do you have a full frame RF mount camera to see how much vignetting the 18mm does on a FF sensor. Because the 7artisan 25mm T1.05 do kinda cover FF. As in it doesn’t have a strict, sharp, vignette shadow for the image circle. It actually has a gentle vignette shadow across the full frame with a bit of edge distortion which I think kinda looks cool. Basically, I want to film by moonlight with an A7siii as wide as I can go.

It's really nice to have more s35 options. It seems almost all the lenses that have been coming out the past few years have been large format, and that pushed me reluctantly into adopting full frame myself, which is a shame, because there are some really amazing s35 cameras like the fuji xh2s.

I should not have watched this video :) Your review about the ranger s35 was the reason why I am now about to pull the trigger on the ranger s35 series by laowa. Seeing how soft it seem, specially around minute 5.23 is killing me :) I had the s35 ranger in hand and tested it for a wee bit. Did not realise it that much. Is it really that soft soft? They are not really on the market in Germany .. but I really need something longer than my sigma 18-35. Thank you for this great videos you put out Ed.

Remember that is wide open on the rangers and no lens performs it's best wide open, and at 200%. The rangers are plenty sharp esp. once you stop down. You only noticed these diffs when doing side by sides, I have used the rangers on lots of pro work and they are perfect for me.

I have this one client where I shoot food and my 18-35 was my go to lens by now. Close focus of the 50-100 sigma is sadly just absurdly far on it.
