Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM lens, black Review

In general, this is the lens that I recommend to all beginners who are not satisfied with 50mm 1.8 or standard kits. It will please you 100%, and even with the purchase of other fixes, I use it very often, it does not distort the pictures, it conveys the proportions as correctly as possible. Chic pictures gives out when shooting with backlight, bokeh in the foliage I've been shooting on it for more than 5 years and everything is ok

I purchased this lens (EF 50mm f/1.4 USM) for 10 at the beginning of 2022. Now it costs 35k and this is already too high a price - now I would not take it for that kind of money. In my case, I came to replace the analogue from Sigma, which I used for less than a week, which had a strong back focus. As a result, I took the option from Canon + UV filter, it turned out 10-11 There is a fairly good lens on the crop, the equivalent of 80 mm on the FF. Later he left the crop in favor of the FF…

This is my second lens. In 2022, I didn’t like it - I thought I shouldn’t have bought it. Smeared constantly, slowly focused. But when I bought 6d to replace 600d. Everything fell into place. He is scolded for "past" by the owners of budget DSLRs. On older models everything is fine. Maybe he is not friends with the EF-S mount? In general, the 600d and 6d have a completely different lens. I am attaching 2 photos from my hands in poor lighting (I took it right now) and a crop of the central area…

I bought the lens knowing what I was going for) I had already used this before. Immediately bought a hood (original). But the original lens hood should not be wound with special zeal (the lens block wedges). Luckily I knew about this beforehand. There are no special problems on the 80D. If the carcass without autofocus adjustment would have to be carried to the service for adjustment. In good lighting (even artificial), there are no autofocus misses. In difficult conditions, there are misses…

I bought it for shooting indoors of my child) for these purposes it's super! I don’t know how for studios and professional shooting there. I have a fotik Mark 2, I really liked the quality of the pictures themselves. Just tweaked the composition in Lightroom! I bought it to replace 85, since it’s difficult to shoot indoors with it all the same. The difference is huge among them! I have not used it for a long time yet, but I think it will become my permanent lens for filming at home. In terms of

I was a little scared to use it after all these reviews about the flimsy autofocus: I solved the problem for myself by buying a lens hood that sits on the lens body, now the trunk is safe :) I am attaching sample shots.

The Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is a very versatile glass that is easy to work with. Do not be afraid to break it, many are afraid to touch it)) In fact, at least it can damage the helicoid, but it should be a tangible effort or blow, and most often it is quite painlessly corrected and repair costs disassembly and assembly. Canon needed to add only 1mm of metal to the helicoid and the lens would have turned out to be indestructible, but apparently this was not part of their plans)) But for creative

Unveiling my comprehensive review.Its pros: Great lens for the money, fast autofocus and accurate Different cons: Strong chromatic aberrations are its only disadvantage

Now I probably wouldn’t buy it. Because, nevertheless, the portrait portrait from it is not full-fledged. It would be more authentic.

With careful and careful handling - an indispensable thing in the arsenal of an amateur photographer. The price/quality ratio is good. Pros below: Good classic optics, aperture ratio, compactness, reasonable price. Cons below: Flimsy constructive, exterior finish leaves much to be desired in terms of the quality of materials. Afraid of even small blows. Slow autofocus.

This lens leaves only positive emotions and wonderful shots. I highly recommend! Moreover, such an aperture for such money (I took it before the crisis) ; ) Pros: Excellent sharp picture, aperture 1.4 speaks for itself, nicely smears the background, USM with all the ensuing amenities, fits comfortably in the hand. Has cons: The angle on the crop is narrow . therefore, it is a little capricious in terms of viewing angle.

Now I probably wouldn’t buy it. Because, nevertheless, the portrait portrait from it is not full-fledged. It would be more authentic. Different pros: Aperture-unambiguous + Compactness. When shooting from a tripod, the photos are juicy, clear. The bokeh is also pleasing. Has cons: Focus. Indeed, there are problems with it. There is not enough stub. But the tripod fixes everything)

There was no instruction in the box, just a lens in a bag and a box. Doubt the authenticity, that he is new. The first shoot went off without a hitch. Got it to replace the broken one.

The opinions of various users regarding the accuracy of the focusing varied substantially in this case; I think the lens gets along with various corpses in various ways. I used it with crop 1.6 (a 550D), therefore I can give it 4 out of 5 stars in this area. In summarizing the advantages and disadvantages, I can state that this is a good portrait lens on a crop (comfortable as a bust, not so much as a full-height). This lens may already be used for both portraits and landscapes on a full frame…

Those who write about poor focusing: focusing by contrast is not ideal in itself, especially when shooting non-static objects. Phase focusing will not work faster than f/2.8 Pros: Aperture Easy Fast enough focusing Needless to say, it’s fixed in Africa too. Has cons: The autofocus motor sometimes makes a lot of noise, especially when reaching the maximum focus (a slight click is heard, the lens has never fallen or beaten). Soaps on an open aperture, the normal operating value is from f /…

Pleased me for a little over a year. really pleased . But then the focus broke. now it focuses in any mode from 3 meters to infinity. no closer. denied warranty repair. in general, gl . it’s better to add and take sigma

It's definitely not worth that kind of money. I started using it, I noticed how it lathers in the corners, in addition, there are strong aberrations when you shoot in the sun or in backlight. For that kind of money, I was expecting candy, but in fact I was very upset.

I use this lens with the EOS 6D camera as a universal lens, I shoot cycling trips, people around me, landscapes, panoramas with it. To be honest, I vaguely imagine the use of this lens on a crop - perhaps, as a portrait lens. I really like the quality of the lens, in general, it is comparable to the 24-70 / 2.8L that I had. I was afraid that vignetting would interfere - it turned out that starting from F / 2.8 there were no problems, but on F / 1.4 it often turns out that the vignetting…

1.4 on it is conditionally working. if the picture is not enlarged, the differences in sharpness with more closed apertures will naturally never be seen. but it's tempting to increase it to 100%, compare by pixel, and. after that always use at least 1.8. because the sharpness is no longer perfect, the purple haze is visible, and so on. Some pros: Sharper than zooms up to 25000r. On the crop, in principle, there is nothing more to blur the background, at 85mm you will no longer have to talk with

They claim that it has an incredible level of sharpness from 1.4. On my crop, the FF value has increased to 2.2 from 1.8. Although versions 1.4-1.6 are also functional, this is not the same thing. Regarding sharpness, it is impossible to achieve, and someone suggested using the use of a soft filter when taking a portrait; this suggestion is rational. When I saw what may be after the standard plastic zoom on the crop, I merely thought that it was filmed with a different camera. Color when I saw…
