Sharp, Crisp, and Clear!

Meike's aspherical telephoto lens delivers fantastic results for the budding and professional photographers alike. Its solid construction provides stability and durability, ensuring long-lasting performance. The autofocus feature is excellent, making it an excellent choice for capturing moving subjects. However, it’s somewhat bulky, making it challenging to carry around with you everywhere you go. Nonetheless, a great addition to your electronics collection!

Pros
  • Sharp and clear image quality, especially in low light conditions
Cons
  • Requires manual focus, which may take some getting used to for beginners

Great price: lenses

When you look at this lens, you must understand that it was created only for limited purposes, but to achieve them. It's heavy and solidly built. I expect it to work fine as a macro, but this is my first "design" for it, and my skills won't give you technical analysis.

Pros
  • camera and photo
Cons
  • speed

SO good for the value! A solid contender for a macro!

I used this on my Canon EOS R for some macro focus stacks. Nice and sharp. This actually makes a good portrait image, but still focuses fairly close and has an aspect ratio of 1.5:1. The bokeh is rendered very nicely and I didn't notice any of the odd haze or flare that is usually seen with cheaper glass see is. This is the first macro lens I've found for the RF mount and it's still a workhorse to this day. Very durable construction. All-metal body and very muted focus and macro rings.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Big and chunky
