My favorite lens!: Lenses

I originally had the MF version of this lens. Sold it after a few months to get this one. He is extraordinary! Super sharp with great color.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good wide angle lens

How do I like one of the "For portrait photography" questions? Only if you don't like the motifs of your portrait photography. Super wide-angle lens for real estate or landscape photography. Only use it for portraits if you want people to look fat.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Annoying

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great lens for cameras and photography

Outstanding optics and performance. The only downside is that due to the curved design of the glass, neutral density filters are not available or not at all. If you need to shoot in low light with this lens, it's a dream come true. However, if you're shooting outdoors in sunlight and need to compensate with an ND filter, you might want to explore other options.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Long term

Great lens for the price

So after some research I bought it as I was looking for reliable astrophotography. And I have to say the reviews were spot on, this is a sellable lens, especially at this price point. Images are sharp, autofocus is good, and overall performance is amazing. You won't regret buying this lens, I can guarantee that.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Some bugs

Great lens for budget properties.

This is a must have lens for a budget full frame kit for real estate photography. This is really the only lens you need to start with. I use it with a Sony A7ii and love it, it does 99% of my real estate work. For non-real estate stuff, the autofocus is good enough to shoot without moving, at least with the A7ii. Also great for astrophotography! Feel free to buy this lens!

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some complications

Wouldn't recommend this lens

I'm sending a replacement for the first one I ordered a few weeks ago. Both show strong vignetting with color degradation in the corners. I spent too much time trying to fix the problem in Lightroom. Not worth it, and certainly not worth the 600.2 stars for very good sharpness in the center, but quickly decreases towards the edges. Finally, do not use the Samyang lens back cover on other E-mount lenses. To remove it you need 2 people and a boy. I thought I would have to break it. Serious. Butโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Not bad

Too much distortion - poor fly-by-wire control

I bought this lens to use with my a7s2 to create videos for real estate agents. For that I need a remote lens because to make these videos FAST (which is important as clients don't like paying a lot for these basic basic videos) you need to be shooting in S priority mode, so what the camera can do is control the aperture and it open and close at will as the light level increases and decreases as you walk around the house to take photos. This lens had good barrel distortion, but I was willing to

Pros
  • Always loved
Cons
  • I won't say anything

The product is average, Im not sure its worth the money.

In general, at first I was happy, but then one jamb after another and they are constant, I wonโ€™t buy this a second time, the manufacturer is obliged to finalize it, at the moment Iโ€™ll catch the focus manually faster than this glass Has pros: - light - aesthetically pleasing body - good luminosity - autofocus (but it also has a minus, read) - does not pull corners as much as analogues Has cons: - autofocus, it's terribly slow - buggy, autofocus may stop working during shooting (you need toโ€ฆ

As such, there are no disadvantages, it is convenient to use.

For the price, this is a great option if you need just such a wide angle. I studied analogues for a long time, everything that is better is much more expensive and heavier. For me, the weight of the lens is not the last thing, you need to take care of your back)) Pros: Wide angle, quite bright, light. Autofocus works well, face/eye focus too, quickly and silently. Cons: Surprisingly, I have two dust particles on the side under the front lens right from the factory! Build quality, therefore, isโ€ฆ
