Review on Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM Wide Angle Lens - Fixed - Black, Model 2750B002 by Siu Kth ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A high-quality product, the price corresponds to the quality.

I use it on 5Dm3, there is an AF adjustment there, so you can adjust the autofocus correction for macro photography. But generally not critical. I suspect that specimens that always hit zero at f / 1.4 and a short distance or not, or they are worth their weight in gold. The depth of field is 1-2 mm. However. I wanted to change it to another one of the same kind and tested 4 different pieces, they all have a floating focus. You test, it hits zero. Then it moves away by a few mm, you introduce corrections, and again it hits zero. Then he leaves again. And so it goes back and forth. And such nonsense on all 4 lenses. And the store employees say that specific glass, how much it was tested, such garbage takes place on all samples. But since this is a landscape painter, in principle, this is not very critical, I will adapt it means. Maybe just a new one and will settle down over time, xs. But to Canon, the question is, how is it. Elka for 50 pieces and such an AF. I have a Sigma 85mm 1,4 in any conditions it beats perfectly and clearly to zero. And then . Well, one unsuccessful instance, but all 4 . Strange in general.

Pros
  • Excellent sharpness, color reproduction, minimum distortion. Very nimble
Cons
  • AF walks, when shooting at f / 1.4 it is very noticeable. It focuses either clearly, or a little closer than necessary. It is especially noticeable on a test piece of paper - then it hits zero, then the focus is closer. A jamb on the open, on a more or less covered one, it falls into the depth of field. There are no problems with interiors and landscapes, but when shooting macro or something close in the open, this moment must be controlled.
