The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Canon 350D Pros: Lightness Cons: It's cancer Opinion: Ok, of course, it's a review written in 2021, so in an era far from the golden age of this device. It is also written by a person accustomed to a Mark II 5D EOS, so it is well understood how switching to this device was a nice leap. After this brief premise, it is very bad from almost every point of view. Objectively it's a little cancretto. But small, very small, almost as much as the price at which it can be found. And when you start to relate to the price... Bought for 50€ on RCE Photos with warranty! Then everything makes sense, and if it joins the fact that the batteries are at derisory cost and its lightness that makes it ideal to be transported anywhere at any time: simply fantastic. If you add a pancake lens such as the ef 40mm or the ef-s 24mm it becomes more contained than a bridge, and the 8 megapixels, made the most of by any modern optics (however cheap) are still too excessive for those who use it only as a basis for social production. Obviously 5 minutes after golden hour or in any closed environment becomes unusable even with an f/2.8 or an f/1.8. At iso 400 you can already see the noise increase, and at iso 800 the photos are simply unwatchable. But as a secondary machine body, or in case you were looking for a reflex to carry with you every day, given the price, it is ideal. The screen is small, but it does its common work; on the other hand, the presence of a textual LCD indicating the active settings allows a quick management of the device (saving a lot of battery) as on the larger machine bodies (the reason why I chose this one instead of a 450d by the way). Despite the smallness and my big hands, it is convenient to hold and the controls are intuitive. A cancretto, but beautiful and fun. sent on January 28, 2021 |
 | Canon EF 80-200mm f/4.5-5.6 Pros: I'm going to read, compact, easy to use Cons: Minimum focus distance, sharpness on sensors high pixel density (8 mpx), very closed diaphragm, lack of stabilization Opinion: What to say, only a fool would buy this lens expecting who knows what results. The pros are now just those to be light and compact, giving the possibility to carry a discreet zoom without burdening the weight and space of your shoulder strap. The sharpness is not the top, but with good light conditions it can still give you really nice shots. Anyway, age is already on my dear old 5d Mark II. I use optics above 80 mm almost only for extraordinary events or cases. The convenience of carrying such a small canvas is undoubted. The results, however, are mainly affected by the closure of the forced diaphragm, especially on the 200mm, at f/5.6 (flying over the fact that to achieve a fairly high sharpness you would have to close at least to f/8.0). As you might expect, the slowness of the goal, coupled with the lack of stabilization that forces the need for fast shots, necessarily leads to work at iso 1600 degrees as soon as the sun begins to set. In 2020 I would therefore suggest it only to those who shoot in analog or for the purposes of small prints (up to the A4)/web format, or to those who want to have an emergency canvas (now) inexpensive to keep in the bag without getting back pain. My experience with this lens goes back to my father, when he bought it in 1992 along with his eos 1000, until today with me and my 5D Mark II. In my opinion, he did well. Undoubtedly comfortable to use, thanks to the wide dial to control zoom and manual focus extremely "fluid". He also faced extreme situations in Indonesia, suffering only one damage: the plastic of the ring has turned white at times; nothing of that, taking into account that the poor fellow is not tropicalized! sent on June 02, 2020 |
 | Canon EF 35-80mm f/4-5.6 Pros: It's at low prices, fun to use, great for fine photos to print up to the A4 Cons: Very low sharpness on modern SLR, noisy sul Opinion: Mounting it on a high-resolution DSLR (8mpx) is like mounting a train of old wheels on a new car. It's definitely noisy. It's really a lot of fun to use anyway, and the 35-80 focal distance is really very comfortable in most situations. It is extremely light, the zoom dial is wide and comfortable, while the manual focus is really very fluid (I find it more comfortable than that of the L-series targets). sent on June 01, 2020 |
 | Canon 5D Mark II Pros: Robustness, ergonomics, battery life, FF sensor, value for money, reliability and resiliency, excellent resolution and file quality, ISO management Cons: Not suitable for sport, not always reliable on moving objects Opinion: It is my first reflex, bought at the end of August 2019. Crazy, just crazy. It allows growth, for a novice photo amateur, to say the least incredible. After months of practice they are far from its limits! The value for money is nothing short of great, digital noise is acceptable even at isos high up to 3200 (I took pictures of stray cats of Yogyakarta, at night, and the results turned out to be impeccable) and to be honest I don't even know what to write, it's just amazing. A professional camera at the cost of an entry level (I dare say). The best way to explain this camera I think is the following: it is old, evidently. In 2020 we now see technologies like eye af tracking. This, on the contrary, of electronics and software has very little. If you use it well, the photo will be beautiful. If you use it badly, the result will be bad, so much so that it is overtaken by a mobile phone. Not surprisingly, when my friends saw my first portraits, they asked me why I had spent so much on nothing. After months of study, the situation has changed a lot. In my opinion it is a great camera for a photo amateur, especially in the case of a rookie like me: the lack of many modern aids will force you to really learn how the world of photography works, without shortcuts, giving you a lot of satisfaction (knowing, by the way, that they are yours). But it can also be an excellent second machine body, reliable and of very fine quality. I consider it my "goto" for all those whose budget is around 600 euros, playing it with the 6D, although the latter did not seem as comfortable for the lack of the joystick (indispensable for the choice of the point of af!). For those worried about weight: I admit that it is certainly not a light device, but it is not even such an unmanageable beast. During a 25-day trip to Indonesia I always carried it with all the kit (4 targets, filters, batteries, flash...) and I never regretted the purchase made. On the contrary: the poor woman did not blink even finding herself working in a plastic bag in the middle of a monsoon! The dimensions are felt only after hours of continuous use (about 4), with the flash mounted, working at parties. sent on May 31, 2020 |
