A good manual lens: Lenses

This isn't just a manual lens, it's a really great lens. It's also very sharp at f1.8. Images captured with this lens will introduce chromatic aberration in high-contrast, backlit subjects, but this can be easily corrected using manual lens correction in Adobe Camera Raw. I posted some examples of this to compare the original photo then enlarge it and then apply the corrections. Example images were taken with a 2004 Canon XT with APSC sensor. Yes, this camera is 15 years old and still works. One of the cats used flash. All shot at f1.8.

Pros

INCREASE YOUR CONTROL. With a bright f/1.8 maximum aperture, you retain impressive control over depth of field, making this lens ideal for selective focusing techniques. With a sleek all-metal body that enhances and enhances the tactile experience, once you pick up an 85mm f/1.8 lens, you'll be constantly inspired to take your photography to the next level.
