Handevision Ibelux Overview

This HandeVision IBELUX 40mm f/0.85 Lens is specifically designed for Fujifilm X mount mirrorless digital cameras, where it provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 60mm. This manual focus prime lens is characterized by its exceptionally fast f/0.85 maximum aperture, which enables its use in a wide array of lighting conditions as well as provides extensive control over focus placement. The optical construction is comprised of 10 elements in 8 groups, including a concave front element that helps to reduce chromatic aberrations and maintains a central angle of incidence of 2.6° for sharp imaging and minimal distortion throughout the aperture range.

The physical construction of the lens is set in an all-metal lens barrel, in which anodized aluminum alloy, brass, and stainless steel are used. The manual focus ring rotates 250° to enable precise focus setting to distances as close as 2.5'. Additionally, a 10-blade diaphragm works to produce a circular aperture that contributes to an aesthetic out-of-focus quality to benefit selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques.

Prime 40mm lens provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 60mm when used on APS-C image sensors.
A fast, bright f/0.85 maximum aperture is well-suited to working in difficult lighting conditions as well as for controlling depth of field.
Front concave lens element and sophisticated optical design helps to minimize chromatic aberrations and achieve notable sharpness.
Manual focusing ring has a 250° focus throw, which enables precise positioning and critical refinement over focus placement.
All-metal lens barrel incorporates a built-in lens hood to both protect the front lens element and reduce lens flare and ghosting.
Ten-blade circular diaphragm produces an aesthetic out-of-focus quality that is pairs well with the fast maximum aperture.

question

Does f0.85 offer any significant low light advantage compared to f0.95, f1.2, or f1.4?
Asked by: Jacob
In theory, there is a definite light advantage to the f/0.85 however it's not too noticeable of a difference in image quality.

question

Does this offer any significant low light advantage when compared to f0.95, f1.2, or f1.4?
Asked by: Jacob
If to compare to 1.2 and higher my answer is Yes. But the thing is that you can use this 0.85 only in very specific, close situations. You get very-very mild shots on 0.85
