Review on πŸ” YONGNUO YN50mm F1.8 Lens with Auto Focus for Canon EF Mount EOS Cameras and Large Aperture by Ojasvi Sharma (Ojo) ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It was a bad idea to buy it, the money was wasted.

You can put up with the fact that the focus speed is low. You can put up with backlash and cheap plastic You can put up with the noise of the autofocus operation (although the noise is the same as that of the whale 18-55 well, or a little louder - it will do). But you can not put up with a bad picture ! I bought a lens, came home, checked it. It turned out that he misses a lot when using phase detection autofocus. when using contrast, it does not miss, but the sharpness is so-so. returned to the store, checked another one - there were no problems with focus this time, but the sharpness is also very mediocre ! strong chromatic aberrations are visible in the contrast areas - the picture as a whole is worse than it turned out with the old 18-55 IS lens. He asked me to try canon 50mm stm: heaven and earth! And on YouTube there are a lot of videos telling that yongno is not much inferior to canon - this is not true, believe me! canon's picture is not soapy, autofocus is quiet, confident, chromatic aberrations are at a minimum. But one can argue that yongno is several times cheaper, but . yongno is not worth its money even in China, if it costs 2 times cheaper, one might think. And canon is worth its money (I would like it to be cheaper, of course, but the . you know yourself)! I do not recommend the yongno lens! and if you really want to, find fault with every little thing, look carefully, ask to measure the lens from canon, and only then make a decision! is it worth taking a lens that is not better, but in many ways worse kit 18-55 ?!

Pros
  • -cheap - interesting bokeh (7 aperture blades) - aperture
Cons
  • - Terribly cheap plastic - backlash -very strong chromatic aberrations that are noticeable even in the center - soaps acceptable in the center, terrible on the periphery -color rendition is not suitable, but some kind of acid
