The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Nikon Z 70-180mm f/2.8 Pros: sharpness, weight, construction, price Cons: None for now Opinion: Really gorgeous lens, very sharp, lightweight, beautiful and professional construction. For event photography it is ideal for the light weight that allows you to keep it attached to the camera without straining your wrists, forearms etc. too much. Also very valid in the field of portraiture. I haven't seen any aberrations so far. Bought on the Nikon Store outlet it's a bargain (1000€ vs 1500) and arrives like new. Considering that the new 70-200 costs 3k, it's definitely a nice saving. Although I imagine that the quality, both in terms of image and construction, is on two different levels. sent on October 24, 2023 |
 | Tamron 70-210mm f/4 Di VC USD Pros: Build quality, sharpness, stabilization, weight Cons: Easy to go up with ISO, does not work with mirrorless without FW update, awkward zoom ring, autofocus that depends a lot on the machine Opinion: I took it to start using lenses more pushed beyond 85mm and I must say that as a first impact it is definitely positive. Very good build quality, sharpness and I'm happy to say that F4 or F2.8 at these focal lengths in terms of blur changes relatively little. You feel a bit the difference up to 100mm, plus it does not change significantly. The real difference is that unless you shoot on sunny days (or with spotlights/flash), it is really rare to shoot at less than 1600 ISO. Needless to say, therefore, that the average yield of the photos is a little more "poor" than brighter lenses, especially if we take into account the fixed ones. The comparison with the 85mm 1.8 is often merciless. Stabilization helps a bit but doesn't work miracles. However, the discreet yield and low weight make it an excellent choice to carry around without too much banging, especially for photographs of events. The real advantage is the really competitive price, which added to the weight, in the end makes you turn a blind eye, especially if you have a car with a good sensor that "puts the piece on it" and lets you take home great photos anyway. The autofocus must be said, however, that it depends a lot on the machine. I have a D750 and a Z6. With the Z6 it is very responsive and easily usable even in conditions of fairly fast autofocus. The D750 struggles much longer and is at the limit of usability. I was hoping that with the update of the FW of the lens the thing would improve but unfortunately this was not the case. On the Z6 I would recommend it in 98% of uses, on the D750 make sure that you do not need it for things with a minimum of "action" otherwise it is not feasible. Perhaps the biggest flaw is that if you don't update the FW, there's no way to make it work with mirrorless cameras. It will give you error and will in fact be unusable. And the tamron tap-in console are another 50-70€ to spend. Luckily I already owned it and the problem did not arise, but if you have an ML it is a cost to be taken into account (or to find someone to lend it to you / update the FW). Last thing that can be improved is the zoom ring. Being covered by the hood when "placed" on the lens, in fact we are obliged either to remove the hood or put it to the lens. Otherwise we will not be able to zoom. Here too nothing serious, but it would have been enough to reverse the zoom ring with that of the focus to avoid running into the problem. Basically a great lens and looking a bit 'in the used you can take it at really ridiculous figures compared to the many 70-200 F / 2.8 that there are around. sent on December 13, 2021 |
 | Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 II Pros: Build quality, sharpness, speed in hooking the eye, great Cons: For now, no one Opinion: Tried in tandem with a Sigma Art 85mm and I must say that I absolutely have no regrets about the Sigma. In fact, the fact that it weighed half and was half the size is definitely a big plus. Hooked to the Z6 then aesthetically it's really gorgeous. A really good lens, absolutely recommended. I was afraid of regretting the Nikon 85mm, but at the end of the day I think you can't ask for more at 85mm. sent on April 11, 2021 |
 | Samyang AF 85mm f/1.4 F Pros: considering that it has light autofocus, material that at least to the touch looks quality and solid, good notide even at TA. Snappy Autofocus. It's also beautiful aesthetically as a goal Cons: It has read aberrations but still something very minimal and manageable. Distance of focus a little altina Opinion: After using it for a few outings I have to say i am satisfied with this goal. Return very good colors, sharp photos, snappy and precise autofocus. The only flaw is perhaps the focus distance slightly higher than the other objectives in the category. However, given the quality of the photos and the absolutely low weight, I would say it is something bearable. Opening the diaphragm does not notice an extreme worsening of the chromatic aberrations that, however, especially on the edges there are. More than just green rather than magenta. However, with a minimum of Photoshop you can quickly fix it all. Considering the opening to F/1.4, the quality of the photos, the weight, the valid autofocus and everything. I'd say it's a very good 85mm. sent on November 26, 2019 |
