📸 Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM: Unmatched Wide Angle Lens Perfection Review

Bought today for 18500. on ebay. The seller wrote that the lens is new. At first I was looking for a catch. in stores cheaper than 27,000 can not be found. The lens turned out to be ABSOLUTELY NEW - lenses without a speck of dust, not worn contacts on the mount, a complete set, though bought in America i. E. no guarantee . insanely happy. Has some pros: PERFECT CROPS . fast autofocus and quiet (twice as quiet as 50 f / 1.4), tight, front lens is fixed, . With its cons: In backlight, it…

The lens has a solid construction, pleasant weight and dimensions. It can be used as normal on crop cameras, since its focal length value almost exactly matches the sensor diagonal value.

Compared with Canon 28mm 1.8, Canon 35mm 2, Canon 40mm 2.8, Sigma 24 1.8. An option full of compromises. More contrast than 28/1.8, therefore less suitable for portraits.

On a cropped camera, it becomes an excellent regular lens. The lens is great in reportage and street shooting, it behaves perfectly when shooting with wiring (the stub distinguishes and adjusts such shooting). The lens showed itself well when shooting small objects, blurs the background well. Even a portrait with this…

The glass is excellent but expensive. The optimal price is up to 20 thousand. And for those who ask around 30, show the cookie or even two))) The additionally purchased petal hood is aesthetic and helps - although it keeps the back light anyway. Good as a regular and for the genre, but for the genre (portrait) 35mm is optimal - the geometry is better there. The optical quality of Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM - Canon EF 24 mm f/2.8 IS USM - Canon EF 35 mm f/2 IS USM is on the same level, the…
