Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money, I recommend.

Acquired in the year 2022. We were able to sell it really quickly. My evaluation is subject to certain qualifications. A great deal is contingent on the level of quality for which you are prepared to pay $18–$20 per kilogram. acquired between the years 18 and 55. waited one month before purchasing in a shop for the price of 18,000 sold after 6 months. filmed during a period of about two weeks. ✎ I have gone over several of these remarks. and made the decision to purchase. That usually occurs while you are on the market for anything new. BUT! I did not ask myself: why do I need 15-85? The most notable departure from the whale is the adoption of a more acute angle. ask yourself: do you need 15mm? It is nonsensical to photograph a group of people inside an apartment since they would appear squashed at the boundaries of the frame; nevertheless, when photographing people on the street, if you don't shoot at 18mm, you won't be at 15mm either. When shooting in Lisbon's tiny alleys, I found that 15mm with a crop lens gave me the best results: and then, 2-3 frames. If not, it would be dull! portraiture at 85mm? Indeed, but wouldn't it be more cost effective to purchase a fixed 85/1.8 for 11 pieces? Yes, it has a wide range of focal lengths, however a used 18-55 lens can be purchased on eBay for $1500. ✎ Why am I taking the time to write this review? It's more of a piece of advise to think about, specifically: in what way is it superior to a whale? Yes, the quality of the footage has improved, but is it really worth twenty thousand dollars? Nobody can dispute the fact that he is more intelligent than a whale. But, I print on 15x10cm paper rather than A3. What is the color rendering? a photo that is marginally more mouthwatering, but for my own work, I prefer to shoot in raw and then adjust the colors in post-production. The final line is that it all comes down to money. If there are twenty pieces, then there is no need for concern; just switch the whale out with this glass. just don't expect miracles. snapshot in its own right. I would spend eight thousand dollars on such a lens. I do not wish to provide 18,000 dollars. ✎ I personally made 7,000 off the sale and purchase of four M42 manual lenses and am currently playing with them. This is merely my opinion, and all I did was bring up the subject of cost reduction. Do not, under any circumstances, take anyone's advice. ;)

Pros
  • + compactness + versatility (although I must admit that I have already moved on from my love affair with zooms) + stylish build + silent motor
Cons
  • - pricey 72mm filters - price - unstable luminosity - Carrying around 600 grams might be quite a chore. If you wish to travel around Europe with ease, then the station wagon's weight should be increased to 200 pounds. It is lighter to carry a manual-focus 135mm in a metal case.
