Review on Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD Lens: High-Quality Standard Zoom for Canon DSLR Cameras by Siu Kth ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

I bought it in order to take pictures on trips and in the countryside: to a greater extent, nature and architecture, to a lesser extent, people. For these purposes, the lens is perfect. Portraits also come out fine in good lighting. But there is one thing: it is very heavy - it does not bring joy to wear it for a long time. But, in fairness, it should be noted that lenses that are significantly lighter either narrower in the range of focal lengths or generally with fixes Obvious things: For shooting in poor lighting conditions, it does not fit well because of the low aperture ratio. Especially if the subject is moving (for example, a child is playing in an apartment). But this lens is not designed for such things. Overall a good lens in its class

Pros
  • - wide angle at the near end (for standard zoom lens) -IS - qualitatively assembled - nothing rattles or dangles, smooth operation of the zoom rings and manual focus - you can focus manually without switching from autofocus - trunk does not rotate when using zoom - you can use gradual density filters
Cons
  • - heavy - expensive - sharpness acceptable for a telephoto lens but no more
