Thypoch Eureka 50mm f/2 Aluminum Reviews

This is a honey

I just got this lens a few days back. I went right out and started shooting with it. Wide open at f/2.0 and at f/5.6 and f/8.0. The Eureka shoots well at these openings. The look is a good retro look but with more saturated colors than the old uncoated or single surface coated lenses. It is a very good lens and captures very good images. It is a favorite right away. And for the price it is nearly a no-brainer. Shop now before we have imposed tariffs raising the price of everything.

Amazingly fun to shoot with

I bought this lens 2 months ago and it takes a little getting use to. Its amazingly sharp throughout the entire f stop range and comes very close to my Voigtlander 50mm Apo. I mount it on my Sony a7cii with a Voigtlander close up M to E adapter. I would highly recommend this lens. I have to say its a lot of fun to use.

Asked by: Carol
The Thypoch Eureka 50mm f/2 Lens (Leica M, Aluminum) is M mount like the Epson R-D1. But the lens does stick out in the back a bit. And it might hit the camera's sensor.
