The excellent lens in SLR camera lens

I wanted to do a review because I haven't seen much. I think this lens is great. I was worried about such a low price but realized how bad it could be. I've added some quick photos to show that the picture quality is really good. The autofocus is very fast and absolutely silent. I see people complaining about the build quality, which I find ridiculous. The plastic on this lens looks just as good as any other budget lens like Tamron Primes. The lens hood seems to be a bit longer than most other lenses, but that's not really a bother. I haven't had to update the firmware yet as the lens came with the latest version. If you're looking at this lens, you're probably trying to save a few bucks, just like me. In the worst case you have to send it back. But I don't think you will.

Pros
  • YN85MM F1.8S is equipped with 7 round aperture blades, it can capture round diffuse spots. 14-star effect shots are also possible if the aperture is reduced accordingly.
Cons
  • Compatibility
