Approaching The Scene 276: Nikon’s Plena 135 Review + ZF First Impressions

(LINKS BELOW): I received my new ZF body and Plena lens sample the day before leaving for the Scottish Highlands. That gave me a chance to use both a lot over the past month in some fantastic locations. This video is primarily a review of the 135 S Plena lens. Through example images from home and abroad, I’ll show why this is one of the finest portrait primes ever made. I’ll also share some first impressions of Nikon’s new retro ZF.
