Meike 50mm f/1.2 manual focus lens for Z-mount review



Meike 50mm f/1.2 Z-mount manual focus lens review by Bill Hall (see previous guest posts):

Now that the Nikon Z-Mount system has been out for a couple of years, more and more third-party lens choices have become available. Meike, known for its budget-conscious quality products, is now producing this fast 50mm lens for the Z-Mount. It’s $360 on Amazon.

The aperture and focus dials operate very smoothly, but also stay in place when you move your hand away. The mount is all metal also, and mounts to the camera securely with no movement or looseness. Its red stripe is a nice accent, and it looks very professional on my Z6, not revealing its budget price.
