I thought i have a little game called guess the lens.
I have taken 4 photos, all at f/8 of 4 mini bottles of Spanish alcohol. All photos taken with camera on desk with the Sony a7rii
The lensed i used are the Samyang 35mm f/1.8, the Laowa 100mm f/2.8 macro, the Sony 55-210 f/4.5-6.3 OSS kitlens and the Sony 16-50 f/3.5-5.6 PZ OSS kitlens.
Can you guess which photo is taken with which lens?

This are the 4 photos:

Nice concept TMG, I must admit I have no idea which lens did which image really, which shows I must pay more attention in school I guess. :) This is a nice way to learn about Bokeh and different lenses.
If I had to make a guess it would be as follows:
Image 1 - Sony 16-50 f/3.5-5.6
Image 2 - Sony 55-210 f/4.5-6.3
Image 3 - Samyang 35mm f/1.8
Image 4 - Laowa 100mm f/2.8 macro
Thanks for taking the time to share this fun game.

Has been interesting to see what your thoughts were on what photo was taking with which lens. Would have been great if more members would have participated.

Proved to me that it is very difficult to see the difference between lenses when photos are made on a tripos or other steady surface and with a timer, same iso and aperture.

All photos taken from my desk with steady shot off and timer set to 5 seconds, no flash and all autofocus except for the Laowa lens which does not have autofocus.

The setting used for the photos for each lens are:
Samyang lens: f/8, iso100, 35mm, 2.5 sec
Laowa lens: f/8, iso100, 100mm, 4 sec
Sony 55-210 f/4.5-6.3 OSS kitlens: f/8, iso100, 55mm, 4 sec
Sony 16-50 f/3.5-5.6 PZ OSS kitlens: f/8, iso100, 50mm, 5 sec

Now you want to know which photo was taken with which lens.
Well here are the lenses and the matching photo numbers.

Photo 1: Samyang 35mm f/1.8 AF
Photo 2: Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x macro
Photo 3: Sony 55-210 f/4.5-6.3 OSS
Photo 4: Sony 16-50 f/3.5-5.6 PZ OSS
