Review on πŸ“· Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 USM Lens by Micha Kochaski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The right product for me, the price suited me.

In general, a good lens. The picture is very pleasing. I thought a lot about 24-105, but the quality is not so different as to spend money on it. Very light for this size and zoom. I took the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 to replace it. So far I’m satisfied. Using the editor (and this is necessary for fine-tuning with any lens) is quite satisfactory. Allows you to take photos with good quality, professional if desired. Definitely, the kit 18-55 is bad in comparison with it, if you take it as a kit, then the kit is not an option .All the same, sooner or later you will start thinking about something else, but it’s better to buy right away and not think))

Pros
  • 1. Volume. The picture is bold, full. 2. Color reproduction. Pretty good. 3. Detailing. Able to reveal any crop matrix. 4. Weight. This is a separate issue. Light. Very. For such focal ones. Tamron 17-50 is just a brick in comparison. 5. The "pipe" does not leave, although it hangs. 6. Fast auto-focus. In daylight, very. 7. In general, the picture is not much worse than 24-105. A little rough. But the detailing is almost the same. And the colors are similar. 8. I don’t write about the price. It’s worth my money, let’s say so. 9. I completely forgot, of course, this is a stabilizer! It helps a lot and noticeably helps. this is not to smear the picture. Fixes on such values ​​\u200b\u200bof ISO and F are smeared, but this one is not.
Cons
  • 1. Focal. 17 is good. 85 neither fish nor meat. Either 105, or you can limit yourself to 70. But it would be cheaper. 2. Loose. You turn the zoom and everything seems to hang out. Actually, no, but for some reason there is such a feeling. It's just that the details are not fitted in the best way. 3. Plastic. Like a school pen case.
