Q: 4. Can this be used on the Sony a7R III?

A: This lens is for APS-C sensors, so although you can put it on a A7R III, there will be heavy vignetting due to the smaller image circle

Q: 5. Has anyone compared the micro contrast of the Mitakon 35mm/f0.95 to any equivalent from Zeiss? Does this MitaKon35mm has the same 3D look? Thank you for any help given

A: It's an outstanding lens, amazing wide open and slightly closed down. Most people purchase it for its artistic rendering when open. It's sharp at the center when at f/0.95 and slightly closed until it becomes a 'regular' lens closed down with an apparent 53ish mm field of view. It's really amazing. Since you want to know about the microcontrast, you may wish to search YouTube for Ken Wheeler aka 'Angry Photographer' then search for his multiple reviews of the lens. Spoiler alert: He loves it. The 3D look comes from properly using the extreme shallow depth of field. That's sorta up to you and your level of skill. You should also search Flickr. Flickr has lens groups. Yeah, the Mitakon is there and you need to check it out. Search for: SnailsPlace (me) for photos from Singapore's Gardens by the Bay for lots of photos. Anyway, hope this helps... Check out Angry Photographer and the Flickr Mitakon lens page.

Q: 6. Why is the silver version more expensive than the black alternative?

A: Hi, since the lenses are identical except for the color, Mitakon is pricing the silver higher only because of the color. We have many products that vary in price due only to color. It's a feature that manufacturers can choose to price differently.

Q: 7. How Can I use it on canon 5d full frame

A: No you will get extremely heavy vignetting on a full frame camera.

Q: 8. Is this compatible with the Fujifilm X-T20?

A: Yes, It most certainly will!!! It's AWESOME! FYI: ALL FUNCTIONS MANUAL -- Focusimg & Aperture, also NO CONTACTS so that means NO METADATA. It's a 35mm, but on the Fujifilm it amounts to about 52.5mm Field of View. Again, it's not a 50mm. It's a 35mm looking about 50mmish. Set the camera to Shooting Without Lens and in the menu set up a 35mm (NOT 50mm) profile. Use Fujifilm's AWESOME Focus Peaking. I set it on High (You have several colors to choose from. I use White for color and Red for B&W photos. The Aperture Ring IS CLICKLESS. If you bump it, it'll change. Wide open their will be noticable purple fringing in high contrast areas. A breeze to fix in post processing. You're buying the lens to shoot wide open. It's an artsy lens that you will fall in love with. I could keep going but suggest you go to FLICKR and check out the Mitakon 35mm Lens User Groups. Fabulous photos!!!!! Enjoy! Oh, once you catch the manual everything bug the VOIGTLANDER 58mm f/1.4 Nokton SL II S AIS (Nikon F-mount - get an adapter) WILL BLOW YOUR MIND! Again, check out the FLICKR Lens Pages.
