Review on Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Fixed Lens - Discontinued by Manufacturer by Anand Kumar Singh ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The ratio of price and quality is very pleasing, I will repeat the purchase.

Beginners are required to buy) I think that for such a price - just a gift from canon. For those who have not enough whale, I highly recommend taking exactly 50 1.8. This is an opportunity to feel what a fix is, what aperture is, what a normal portrait is. The lens is a portrait lens, because. on crop it will be about 85 mm, and it is unlikely that anyone will take exactly 1.8 for a full matrix) In this regard, it is narrow. In rooms, especially in apartments, it is constantly crowded, this is a feature of the focal length, keep in mind. For the street and all sorts of events - the most, that neither is, staffer. I don't want to open it) Weight - it's just not there) The focus ring is not at all solid and flimsy to the touch. There is a plus in this - with manual focusing (for example, when shooting a video), you can turn it with two fingers, it goes very easily, not tight and fast. Sharpness starts somewhere around 2.8-3.2. The blur is, say, neutral. Not nervous, like some sigmas, and sometimes just beautiful. In general, as the second lens after the whale, it is ideal. Take it without thinking. If you are already familiar with fixes and shoot enthusiastically, then it might be worth looking in the direction of 1.4. All beautiful shots and may the aperture be with you)

Pros
  • Sharp enough. Bokeh is generally pleasant. 1.8. Very light. Cheap.
Cons
  • Soaps on an open hole. Not as tightly packed as more expensive models. Aperture of five petals.
