Review on Canon 16 35Mm 2 8L III Lens by Hemant Hemant ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really necessary purchase, I'm glad I found this product.

Bought for 100K in Hong Kong on Savelovsky, while the official cost 160K. After the purchase, it simply stuck to the carcass - I was struck by its accuracy and focusing speed, and therefore my lenses from Sigma immediately became outdated, the difference is colossal. After the purchase, he immediately went into battle, snapped them off almost the entire wedding, ran in, so to speak, after which he studied the photo in more detail on the computer on the back-front focus object, and did not find a single such case! This is what he takes, as a photographer you will not miss a single moment! Regarding the weight and "plasticity" of the lens, I can say that it does not inspire confidence, the rubber focus and zoom rings are also questionable - there are fears that they will stretch as much as 24-70 II L, but this is subjective. Very dark at minimum focal lengths, in the corners, it happens that you can’t pull it out of Raw. In general, the lens is very worthy: ultra-wide angle, tenacity and focusing speed, ringing sharpness (over the entire field of the frame) and, most importantly, the confidence that you won’t miss, fully justify its price.

Pros
  • Weight: for a wedding reportage, that's it. Waterproof for sure. Fast and accurate focusing. Large: looks solid.
Cons
  • 1. Well, he has a cosmic value. 2. Lightweight, which does not inspire confidence in terms of reliability. 3. Very dark at 16mm
