Kings Circle Shopping Center Surveillance Camera

The image circle is good to 30mm from center, so when fully shifted along the long axis there is some degradation in the corners, but that's a lot of good quality image circle to work with. The caveat here is that the wider apertures are rather poor even in the center of the image circle. All functions work in all orientations on my D800 -- i.e., the built-in Speedlight doesn't interfere with shifting the lens 12mm. The shift and tilt can be independently applied to any orientation, so they are always available for any scenario (unlike the older NIKKOR PC-E and PC-micro lenses where those two functions are offset 90°). The shift knob can be hard to reach when orientated vertically while the camera is orientated horizontally. The easy fix here is to orientate the tilt function to get it out of the way until the shift is dialed in and locked. It's not razor sharp like some of my better lenses, and my copy is hardly usable wider than f/8. There is no AF (duh), but manually focusing using f/3.5 in Live View is easy and precise (I haven't detected any focus shift when stopping down). The first copy I tried was sent back because it was de-centered, so do thorough testing before the return-window closes. Light transmission is a bit weak at about a quarter stop less than my NIKKOR 28mm f/1.8G, so this really isn't a fast lens in any sense of the word. Do I love this lens? No, but as a rule I don't love anything that is inanimate. Do I like this lens? Yes, I actually like it a lot, so I gave it Five Stars in spite of the aforementioned reservations. Would I pay more to gain some sharpness, usable apertures, and a wider AOV? Yes, but not nearly 5x, which is what the NIKKOR 19mm f/4 PC-E lens costs; more like 3x as much, assuming I had that kind of money to spend.

This is exactly what I needed to get my old surveillance camera back up and running. Thanks.

B&H is, by FAR, my favorite online shopping center for photography equipment. The site is easy to navigate and use, checkout is a breeze, they always have exactly what Im looking for and the customer service is wonderful!!

I'm using it for concerts, where it improves footage that previously looked more like a surveillance camera!

Can not ask anything better than this. Work perfect with my desktop and my camera surveillance system 2 in 1 monitor

I am using this product in my surveillance camera box and i am most happy with it .I think it dose the job better than the green one that was in the box before.

This very flexible remote allows the camera to make images with you at the controls or in your absence. It is excellent for remote surveillance.

Purchased the waterproof back pack for a trip to kings beach Lake Tahoe . Must say it’s now my go to travel bag.

Kings connectors are always consistent. Buying them from B H is convenient. Any electronics I need to purchase I get through B H. They’re helpful when your in the store and when ordered on line it shows in a timely fashion.

Solid mechanical build, light weight, and the bokeh is amazing. It outdoes other so-called bokeh kings like Canon's 85 1.2. It's optimised for shooting at 1.4, so even wide open, it's incredibly sharp. But it's a Leica lens, so what did you expect?
