A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

I use it in combination with Nikon D850. I used it to shoot astrophotography, landscapes, various scenes at weddings. He showed himself only from the best side. Focal length is the golden mean for me in landscape photography. Aperture allows you to lower ISO to minimum values ​​in astrophotography. In the landscape allows you to take very high-quality photos throughout the frame, sharp at the edges even on an open aperture. In shooting people, it allows you to take unusual photos and blur the…

Pros
  • Light. Sharp throughout the frame. Aperture-fast. No chromatic aberrations. Distortion is acceptable, minimal. Vignetting only from 1.8 to 2.
Cons
  • They are not here.

The quality is top notch and I recommend the product for purchase.

I bought, if I'm not mistaken, in the fall of 2022, for 49,000. I took, as a plus or minus, a universal width for a new camera (D810). Of the alternatives, I previously used Tamron SP AF 17-35 mm f / 2.8-4 Di on film Canon EOS-1V. What I want to say is that the lens is boring compared to the Tamron, in the sense that the picture has minimal distortion, almost completely absent vignette and high sharpness throughout the frame. These properties are a big plus for those who care about realism and…

Pros
  • Razor-sharp sharpness, working 1.8, convenient dimensions, durable.

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

It took a long time to decide which wide-angle lens to take for the d750, and settled on this. Lightweight, the plastic is the same as on other lenses, but compared to fifty dollars, nothing hangs out, the aperture is sufficient to shoot astro, the minimum focal length is 20 cm ... great for interiors, architecture and astro. But manual focusing is not so convenient, I would like to be more precise ... though autofocus almost never misses.

Pros
  • Aperture, sharpness, color reproduction, weight
Cons
  • Strong vignetting up to 2.8, a window with information about the focusing distance and flu is purely formal
