- The advantages are described well and there is nothing to add, therefore, about the disadvantages .
- do not take without checking! took on Amazon (new) saving 2t. more losses. scary back focus -> alignment. 1.4 aperture is of little use very small depth of field -> many misses, but starting from 1.8, another compote!
- Aperture, sharpness, bokeh, USM, weight and size.
- Fix. But this is not a disadvantage, but a feature.
- This lens is one of the sharpest lenses Canon has ever produced. Simply unimaginable resolution even on a 22 megapixel brand. But here's the problem, this sharpness starts only from aperture ~ 4 and reaches a razor-sharp value at 8k. Well, USM and all that - it is important not even that it is silent, but that you can correct the aiming with the handles at any time.
- F / 1.4 soft shamelessly (there is no sharpness and everything seems to glow). Suitable only for close-up portraits - this soft effect is appropriate there as it makes the skin smoother. F / 1.8 is also not a gift. F / 2.8 is still nothing. Because of this soft effect, autofocus also works extremely poorly, until you align the body-lens pair. It is necessary to align with Arsen, the built-in 5d mk II / 50D adjustment does not help much, and must be paired with a carcass. Bokeh, as a consequence of the high sharpness, is rather unpleasant only if the background is fairly uniform.
- Excellent build quality, quality materials, image sharpness, beautiful bokeh, aperture
- In my opinion there are none
- I believe that the luminosity is the most significant benefit that comes with using this model. It is two stages higher than the very low-cost option of fifty dollars, which is the 1.8. She is the one who makes it possible for you to capture images without the assistance of a tripod practically as late in the day as it gets. She is responsible for the lens functioning flawlessly despite not having a stabilizer attached to it. In addition, if there is a little bit more light than there was at nightfall, you will be able to reduce the ISO level, which will prevent grain from appearing in the photographs. Autofocus that uses ultrasonic drive is not only very accurate but also completely silent. This makes it a very convenient feature. Another advantage is a gorgeous bokeh pattern, which is achieved by using a shallow depth of field in conjunction with the correct shooting parameters. The option to manually alter the focus without having to exit the autofocus mode altogether will be another wonderful little thing that will make the challenging life of an amateur photographer a little bit more bearable. Sharpness. Although it can also be linked to the qualities, sharpness is more commonly thought of as a property of the lens itself.
- The model has a limited number of flaws, but those that are there are substantial. The cost should always come first and foremost. I paid sixteen dollars for my copy. Chromatic aberration is the second problem that can occur. It's some kind of a nightmare, that's all. Any region of the frame that contrasts with the others lights purple. The use of this lens should therefore be avoided when photographing landscapes, particularly on bright days. Unless you reduce the size of the aperture, that is. Despite the fact that the contrast was not particularly strong, even a full-length photograph that was taken outside during sunny weather was affected by a purple glow. On the other hand, straightforward photos that feature seamless color transitions look just fantastic.
- A satisfying fullness in the palms of one's hands When compared to 50 1.8, the picture's brightness is increased when using the same settings.
- Design - utterly collapsed and perished! This glass comes with an excessively high price tag. Autofocus has far too many lapses. As much as 2.2 lathers Up to 2.8 chromatitis is intense (after it also chromatitis, but much less) (after it also chromatitis, but much less)
- Aperture Autofocus with ultrasonic drive Nice drawing
- Chromatic aberration Gentle constructive Price
- failed to identify
- flimsy design. Expensive repairs
- Fairly well assembled for its price range, very nice drawing
- No sharpness down to f/2.8 and beyond, it doesn't hurt the eyes, very low contrast, buzzing autofocus and not far from the fastest, not far from the 50 f/1.8 II that everyone scolds so much
- Price, weight, picture quality.
- On the crop it is cramped in the room
- Aperture\sConstructive\scompactness\sPrice
- Didn't find
- Aperture. Sharpness from 1.6, in principle, and 1.4 is not bad. Bokeh is pretty. Lightweight and durable
- Very, very stupid autofocus. Works tolerably only in conditions of excellent illumination and complete immobility of the object being shot
- great picture for the price
- Not the most reliable design
- Aperture, weight, compact dimensions, ultrasonic motor, Japanese assembly, thread diameter 58 mm, which means cheap filters, relatively affordable original lens hood
- A flimsy construct, a moving trunk with a front lens, not a tenant without a lens hood .
