Which Nikon lenses are famous for their color?

Hello, let me talk about my experience, opinions and suggestions:

1. In the film era, the 1980s In the past, lenses designed and manufactured did not really care about color.

Because in the 1980s, even in Europe and the United States, they mainly shot black and white film, and color film was not that popular.

Moreover, in the early days of color film, in fact, the color was not reliable during development and printing, and there were many variables. It was not as highly consistent as the Apple iPhone screen.

For the same color negative film, if you change the store to develop the photos, the colors will be different. This is normal.

2. After 1980, the lenses manufactured after 1980 are more concerned with color, but they are only mid-to-high-end lenses.

If they are low-end lenses, they are also random.

A mid-range lens, that’s about it.

Of course, this nonsense or that may have its own personality and characteristics.

Doesn’t it feel like hitting the right spot?

3. After 1990, we really entered an era of being more serious about colors.

After this time of being more serious about colors, individuality or characteristics are no longer obvious.

4. After entering the digital age, basically, we no longer pursue the individuality and characteristics of color.

Especially landscape photography, basically It needs RAW format and PS.

The main advantage of Nikon cameras is landscape photography, but landscape photography does not care about the color and personality of the lens.

5. In the digital age, however, we still care about the color performance of skin tones

This is what Nikon is not good at, and of course, Sony is not good at either.

6. On the Canon body, the skin color of the subsidiary lens is indeed not very good

For example, the portrait lens of Sigma is very sharp, but , the color is indeed not as good as Canon original lens.

7. As far as Nikon digital cameras are concerned, those who pursue color personality are mainly sketch photography and flowers and plants.

If you are shooting sketches and flowers and plants, then , you can still pursue the color or personality of the lens.

Relatively speaking, the color of D head is more individual.

For example, 50mmF1.8D has more personality than 50mmF1.8G.

For example, 80-200mmF2.8D has more personality than 70-200mmF2.8G.

In summary, Nikon bodies, in general, are not suitable for pursuing color personality. If you really like color personality or features, I still recommend you to use Canon or Fuji cameras, Pentax cameras will also work.

When playing with Nikon or Sony, there is no real need for the subtle and individual aesthetics of color. Which Nikon lenses are best known for their color?

To be honest, the colors of Nikon lenses are very good.

We have always said that Nikon can produce films without post-production. What this means is that the color saturation of Nikon lenses is relatively high.

If I have to say which one has better color, I can only speak from the lenses I have used.

80-200/2.8, the color of this lens is much better than that of 70-200.

Nikon 105 fixed focus, whether it is a macro or portrait lens at this focal length, the colors are quite good.

85/1.4 The color of this prime is very good.

14-24 lens, I like its color very much.

The colors of other lenses are also very good. After all, it is difficult for us non-professionals to distinguish their subtle differences. Large ternary lenses and some Nikon fixed-focus lenses actually have very good color performance.

The above is my opinion. Friends are welcome to share it.

Sword Dance Image, western photography enthusiasts, welcome to pay attention

Whether it is Nikon, Canon or German, the color tone is different due to the difference in lens coating and optical glass. , the picture quality is different.

1. Different tones: You must know the standard of German tones, gray and blue, and the colors of a picture are relatively integrated. When shooting, it is convenient to use various methods to achieve the German color you think. You can adjust the white balance when shooting with the camera and set it to a lower tone to make the colors more integrated and achieve the so-called gray, where the colors blend into each other without jumping.

2. The image quality is different: there is a slight difference in the amount of light transmitted through the lens and the way it transmits light. Nikon is generally close to the German camera in image quality, and downshifting the exposure will have an effect close to the German camera.

3. Post-production and pre-shooting: They can be combined. You can try to set the color prediction, partial blur and other post-production effects in pre-shooting.

4. Don’t focus on yellow and red colors. It feels like the style of the work is more elegant. Photography is a process of discussion and learning. It is no longer interesting to directly achieve the effect. There is a difference between what you want and what you like. Not everyone feels the German tone. Sometimes the traditional taste is better.

5. In the rich red tone, the series is no different from Nikon. The light-colored environment is obviously German, on the contrary, Agfa film is.

Who is the German or the Quankang family?

Which Nikon lens is the best, determined by price and weight

Personally, I feel this question is a bit strange! The colors of Nikon lenses are very good, if you have to compare them

1. Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f / 1.4G

2. Nikon 70-200mm f / 2.8 G AF-S ED VR II

3. Nikon 14-24mmf/2. 8G

4. Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 35mm f/1.4G

5. Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED

Attach the photo first, then read below!

The first and second pictures were taken with Nikon 70-210f4 Xiao Hei. This is an old dog head! It feels a bit light and bluish!

The third picture was taken with Nikon 28-300f3.5-5.6. This is a zoom lens, and the colors feel thicker!

The fourth picture was taken with Nikon 24-70f2.8. This is a Nikon 24-70f2.8, and the color feels relatively average!

Of course I can’t say anything about unused lenses, and there are not many used Nikon lenses. Among the used Nikon lenses, I personally feel that the colors of two lenses are quite unique. To be precise, they are very Distinctive ones:

1. The first one is the Nikon 28-300mmf3.5-5.6VR lens. The color is obviously different from other Nikon lenses, but the feeling of the color is hard to describe. How to put it? ? It’s just that the colors feel thicker and a bit brighter. For example, compared with Nikon 24-70, not to mention blurring or other things, it is obvious that the color of 24-70 is lighter than that of 28-300, and it is brighter than Nikon 70-200. Thick!

2. The second one is an old Nikon lens. This one with 70-210mm f4 aperture is commonly known as "Little Black". The color is also different from all the Nikon lenses I have used so far. This lens is sharp. But it is different from the "sharp" taste of other lenses, and the color is also dull, but it is not the same as the 24-70. It is light and a bit blue, and the skin color of the portrait is white. Under the same environment, light, and people, the color is not the same as that of the 24-70. Compared with other Nikon lenses, there is no so-called Nikon yellow, but it lacks warm colors!

Nikon’s lenses are nothing like a dog’s head and a bull’s-eye, so I don’t have any special impression of Nikon’s high-end lenses. On the contrary, the Nikon Dog 28-300 and the Nikon Old Dog 70-210 are two of the most popular lenses. I am deeply impressed by this lens because its color is quite special!

I have used a lot of Nikon heads, and in terms of color, it is definitely 80-200, with oil painting-like colors.

I have Nikon 24-120F4, 14-24F2.8, 80-400 (second generation), 105mm macro D, Tokina 107 fisheye zoom and a ZF1 generation 50F1.4. I don't really care whether these lenses are good at color.

If you look at the camera screen thumbnail after taking the photo, you will find that the colors of ZF50F1.4, 14-24F2.8 and 105D macro are richer. The colors of 24-120F4, 80-400 (second generation) and Tokina 107 fisheye zoom are slightly lighter.

Because I usually shoot NEF (RAW), I don’t care about the color of the lens after putting the images in the memory card into the computer hard drive. As long as you go through ACR rough adjustment and then enter the homepage to digitally restore the scene, the color restoration of the photos taken by each lens can be basically consistent, that is, "restore the color temperature and color of the scene you saw at the shooting scene." .

If you want to further enhance the color of the image, you can adjust the specific "color lever" in the picture to get a color style similar to "shooting Kodak reversal film with a German lens"

Nowadays, Japanese lenses are more about restoring true colors. What you see is what you get. Seeing too many rendered photos will be annoying

I have the most experience with this issue!

Among the two factors of lens and film, the color difference between different brands and different models of film is much greater than the difference between different brands and different models of lenses.

In fact, the "German taste" did not exist in the era of black and white film. After Agfa in Germany produced the first roll of water-soluble color film in 1936, and the first roll of Kodachrome was born in 1935 Comparing the Tomb reversal film, I discovered the difference in the color styles of the two, and the "German flavor" was born.

Although this water-soluble color film production process was gradually replaced by oil-soluble color film, the East German Wolfen Photochemical Company inherited this process and continued to produce it under the ORWO trademark until 1991.

Attached are three East German-themed photos taken with ORWO film. The overall warm tone highlights the blue-green color. Whether it's a Nikon or other lens, it can't be rendered.

This is the true "virtue" that is difficult to express through the lens.
