After several months of use, I can confidently say this device has become a permanent fixture on my desk—and not just because I’m too busy to unplug it. The voice dictation works impressively well, saving both time and keyboard wear, while the video quality is sharp enough to make even Monday morning Zoom calls look respectable.
Whether you’re conferencing or simply attempting to look professional from your home office, the performance is consistently reliable. As someone with over 25–30 years in the IT industry, I don’t hand out praise lightly—but in this case, it’s well deserved.
In short, this is an excellent choice for everyday office use. Logitech continues its long-standing tradition of delivering quality products—thankfully, without requiring an IT support ticket to get started.
If only every piece of tech behaved this well, IT departments everywhere could finally take a proper coffee break.
Samyang MF 85mm f/1.4 Lens for Nikon Z Mount
The Samyang 85 mm f/1.4 prime lens Nikon Z is available for every major digital SLR1 manufacturer including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus, and Pentax. It's fixed 85mm focal length is considered perfect for portrait photography. The bright f/1.4 aperture combined with the 85mm focal length is great for isolating your subject by beautifully blurring any distractions in the background. Similar to the days of early SLR cameras, the Samyang requires manual focusing and aperture adjustment. Thankfully, the silky smooth action of the dampened focus ring and 1/2EV increments (except when stepping from f/1.4 to f/2.0 and f/16 to f/22) of the aperture ring makes finding correct focus and exposure a breeze. Despite these two omissions, the build and optical quality of the lens are exceptional.
Made from a combination of metal and high-quality plastics, the lens features 9 glass elements in 7 groups including one aspherical element. With outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness, beautiful out-of-focus rendition, and true-to-life color reproduction the Samyang 85mm f/1.4 prime lens represents excellent value for money. Fast f/1.4 maximum aperture offers a high degree of control over the depth of field for working with selective focus and shallow depth of field techniques. Additionally, it also benefits working in low-light conditions with shorter shutter speeds.
Bokeh is gorgeous at f/1.4 and remains very good when stopping down a little
The transition between focused and defocused elements is nice and smooth
