The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 II Pros: Viltrox AF85 F1.8 with RF mount, used on RP, R6, R8. Rendered on par with the Canon EF135mm f/2.0. Very soft blur, very sharp even at TA. Excellent materials, ridiculously low price. Cons: Against Canon which with the R8 has made it difficult to use. Against DxO because it does not have the optical module. Lens hood difficult to assemble and disassemble. A minimum of distortion that can be easily controlled in PP Opinion: I had the Viltrox AF85 F1.8 with RF mount for two and a half years. Paid new 320 euros. Used on RP and R6 for trouble-free photos and videos. With the R8 it was not possible to use it if you set the Exposure + Depth of Field simulation. The machine is blocked. Sold only because I had the monkey of the 85mm Sigma ART (which cost me more than double). I have opened 3 discussions about this lens (https://www.juzaphoto.com/viewforum.php?sf=201&l=it) to be considered the best of the powerful lenses for Canon RF I own. Little else to say: for the rest just see the images below. A very soft blur, a performance on a par with the EF135mm of which it becomes the worthy companion. sent on December 14, 2024 |
 | Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM Pros: Price, weight, size Cons: The edges of the photos are a bit stretched both for the focal length and for the sw correction Opinion: Or you enter the optics that a 16mm, RF mount, used under 300 euros, 180g, as big as the 50mm must be corrected via sw or better leave it alone. One buys a chihuahua and then demands that it bark like a Great Dane. It's a chihuahua, it fits in the handbag and barks like a chihuahua. We have had n discussions on this perspective. Some have shown that most of the distortion is related to the focal length and not to the sw correction. It is the ideal companion for outings, at home it returns (if left with its distortion) funny photos. Very sharp in the center even at TA. Ideal companion of the 24-105 (poor and not) and the fifty, it worthily completes the kit. For the rest, go here: https://www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=4270580 sent on August 20, 2024 |
 | Canon 50D Pros: It is a tank, particularly high cost-performance ratio, micro-adjustment lenses. Cons: There are few :); weight; few AF points that, at times, force you to recompose. Opinion: 100 euros. One hundred euros! And you have a high-level machine in your hands. From 2008, it has everything needed by those who want not only to learn to photograph, but to go further. For those who can't afford an 80D or a 70D it's a must. Coupled with the Tamron smooth 17-50 F2.8 and the EF70-200mm F4L it provides an extremely high-performance shopping kit. I had it for 3 years from 2011 onwards. It was a bit like the "training ship", before the 6D. It is a pleasure, today, to review the raw of over ten years ago, even at 3200 ISO: fortunately modern denoise give new life to dated shots. 15Mpx is not a limit, you can even crop if the printing needs do not exceed A3. It can be safely mistreated, it has micro-adjustment lenses. The AF points are a bit few, you have to get the hang of it. It shoots at 6.3fps where the 80D shoots at 7fps, minimum time 1/8000s like the great-granddaughter. sent on August 20, 2024 |
 | Canon 6D Pros: Sensor: GD, high ISO sealing, weight, volume, battery, but above all: used price. Cons: AF Module Opinion: Had for 8 years after 400D and 50D before RP, R6, R8. Preferred to the 5DIII for price, size, weight, sensor performance. A great machine. To date, for those who want to start with FF Canon the best buy. 400-450 euros, the money goes on optics ;). Excellent files, soft, manageable, faithful colors. I shot at 12,800ISO, a bit of denoise, perfect A4 prints. Simple to use, intuitive, it also lends itself to excellent customization. Small for a FF SLR. Long battery life. Once I understood how to manage the AF (I used the central and the 4 diagonally) I took home great shots. I mainly used it for indoor and outdoor portraits. Even with puppets in frenetic motion. You have to get the hang of it. No-frills concrete machine. sent on December 07, 2023 |
 | Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: Bokeh, weight, size, manufacture (I used to write "everything" before:) ) Cons: I would have preferred it black, noisy stabilizer when used on RP Opinion: Optics had for 11 years. Sold to finance the purchase of the 3 corresponding fixeds: Viltrox 85mm F1.8 RF, EF135mm F2.0, EF200mm F2.8. I think that after this perspective there are two ways out: either the fixed or the stabilized biancone. I opted for the former. Until the advent of the fixed, the best optics possessed. Used on 50D, 6D, RP. Wonderful blur, with the current sw there is no problem for the sharpness to TA at all focal lengths. For me, it remains the best buy (used) for those who need versatility for focal ones. Returns warm, soft portraits both outdoors and indoors. On the RP I shot at 1/30" at 70mm and at 1/40" without shake. The stabilizer made "cash" on the RP, rather noisy, much more than on the 6D. For comparison: I had the EF F/4.0 L IS triad (16-35mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm) for 4 years; well, the other two optics did not come anywhere close to the performance of 70-200 in terms of IQ. sent on August 12, 2023 |
 | Canon EF 200mm f/2.8 L II USM Pros: Weight, dimensions, appearance, solidity, sharpness, bokeh, colors Cons: Not received. Opinion: Bought a year and a half ago, used (practically new) here on the market, 400 euros. R6, adapter, DxO PL5: it is my combination for portraits for events on stage or in any case for distances greater than 4m. It returns portraits in my opinion extremely pleasant. At TA the bokeh is exceptional. On DxO I have to bring the microcotrasto to -40 to overcome the extreme sharpness and to smooth the imperfections of faces not made up. Distortion and chromatic aberrations are absent after two clicks on DPP4 or DxO. Like most Canon lenses, it returns faithful colors that match my taste. That it is not stabilized is an advantage: it is light. For the portraits I do, they are, at least, at 1/250s. Even with adapter, it does not weigh / clutter more than a tot. Well balanced on both R6 and RP. Together with the EF135mm F2.0L and 'went to replace the excellent EF70-200mm F / 4L IS in my kit. Choice that I have not yet regretted. I felt the need for a zoom on one occasion, during a performance on a huge stage where it would take a 70-300mm to follow everything. But, I know, they haven't done a 70-300 F2.0/2.8 :) yet. I obviated with 3 fixed and crop. Being black, unlike canon zooms (white-white) guarantees a certain discretion. As well as the fact of being 40mm shorter than the white. sent on August 05, 2023 |
 | Canon 550D Pros: Value for money Cons: Nothing if you know what you are buying Opinion: I took it a couple of years ago to introduce my son to photography. For me, the best value for money for used Canon aps-c for those who want to start with less than 200 euros. To have a sensor that is a minimum better you have to spend about twice as much and switch to the 750D. It has everything you need, it is compact and lightweight. Simple to use. To be coupled with the Tamron 17-50mm or EF50mm STM / EF40mm STM / EF-S 24mm STM zoom if you prefer fixed (always with a view to low cost a lot of yield). sent on May 02, 2023 |
 | Canon EOS RP Pros: Best buy Canon FF 2022-3 Cons: See here: https://www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=4457373 Opinion: It's been two years since I bought the Canon RP. Here https://www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=4457373 the last of the 6 discussions about it. You will find everything more. I mention what struck me most: it is a compact, with all the consequent pros and cons. I am enthusiastic, combined with the RF50mm and RF16mm is ready for anything with minimum bulk and weight. The best for those wishing to approach the mirrorless world Canon FF with minimal expense. sent on March 13, 2023 |
 | Canon RF 24-105 mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: Sharpness, aesthetic finish, weight, size, price. Cons: Nothing to be a 24-105mm Opinion: An uncompromising "all-rounder" goal. I didn't get a chance to compare it to EF versions of Canon. There are mesh comparisons showing the lowest weight, the smallest dimensions and the best optical performance. It costs as much as the EF version. Here I posted comparisons with fixed and zoom EF: https://www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=3910502. In almost all cases, the lens performs better than the others. With the active stabilizer it can be triggered at 1/13s below 50mm and at 1/25s above 50mm without micromox. In conclusion, even having only F/4, given the sharpness and stabilizer, it can excellently replace many fixed lenses (even more open) and other zooms in the same focal range in almost all shooting conditions. It's the lens I'd take with me if I had to pick just one. sent on April 16, 2021 |
 | Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM Pros: Like the little brother EF: size, weight, cost. Better than the EF little brother: sharpness at the edges. Cons: Worse than little brother EF: sharpness in the center up to F/4 Opinion: I have the EF version of the lens, to be used with the R system with the adapter. The prospect of having 110g and 2cm less as well as the programmable ring pushed me to invest the exorbitant amount of 200€. When paired with the Canon RP, you get a combination, in my opinion, excellent in terms of weight, handling, clutter, usability: 96x132x87(h)mm / 648g. To be carried in the bag, in the pocket of the jacket. Rf50mm has a slightly greater angle of field than the adapter + EF50mm combination. In the centre, the RF is very, very much less sharp than the EF. At the edges a pleasant surprise: the softness, typical of the fiftieth up to almost F/4.0, disappears at F2.8. sent on April 13, 2021 |
 | Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM Pros: Weight, size, sharpness, price Cons: AF a bit slow Opinion: Weight, size: makes any machine a compact to carry in your pocket. A world opens up to you, my 6D is reborn. Aperture and sharpness: already usable at F/2.8, with sharpness (at that opening) better than the EF50mm F/1.8 STM and comparable to that of the EF35mm F/2.0 IS STM. Perfect for almost any genre: portraits, streets, landscapes. Having a bit slow AF (at least on the Canon EOS RP), maybe it's not perfect for videos. 130 euros used: what more to ask for? sent on March 24, 2021 |
 | Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Pros: Everything, if one knows what he's buying. Cons: Nothing, if anyone knows what they're buying. Opinion: New, at worst, 140€. Used, at best 80€. Perfect lens for beginners who want to try their hand at fixtures. Normal focal point on FF. Portrait on APSC (80mm equivalent). Lightweight and compact, it takes you anywhere, with any machine. My copy, in the middle, is clear already at F/1.8. It improves to F/2 and remains excellently sharp. At the edges, very soft from F/1.8 to F/2.8; soft up to F/3.5, sharp up to F/4.5, very sharp at F5.6. Chromatic aberrations and pp-corrected vignetting. What I like most is that it's "no-brain." For cost, for portability, for ease of use. If you break it down, you buy it back :). If you dig up, zero time, you sell it. I compared it with EF40mm F/2.8 STM and EF35mm F/2 STM: if you leave out the edges up to F/2.8 and the center at F1.8, the optics provide the same image quality. I had the previous version (not STM): another planet for physicality and constancy of MAF. What to say: catch him! sent on March 22, 2021 |
