![]() | Canon RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM Pros: Lightweight, stabilization, fully in line with the new canon cameras to contain noise; Entry level cost, macro (almost) true. Cons: Indoors only long times. Not bright at all. Extreme low-light shots. Ugly with that crow's neck on 105mm. He often struggles to find the fire. Opinion: This zoom is a small masterpiece for the price if we consider it for what it is: an entry level all-rounder that is often sold in kits. It must be said that it fits into a Canon system that, with stabilization and the ability to work at high iso, allows you to take home shots even in low light situations. I photographed in church cursing myself for not bringing a brighter lens. Shots with 105mm at 6400 iso and 7.1 aperture I saw them very badly. On the other hand, with lightroom Photoshop and a coat of topaz de noise, I got very decent results. In short, it is a lens with a very effective stabilizer, it costs little, it is light. On the other hand, the performance is not memorable. If you have to photograph indoors, you have to be careful to be ingenious and expect a lot of noise to be corrected. Outdoors, on the other hand, it's a whole different story, even if photographing details such as a flower swaying in the wind, the autofocus panics and you have to insist several times to catch it. I paid 320 euros for it. It seems to me that for the price it is worth a visit. The added value of this zoom is the minimum focusing distance: very few cm. With a ring flash, you get macro photos that are not possible with the rich twin of the L series. sent on May 13, 2024 |
![]() | 7artisans 50mm f/0.95 Pros: Super blur, sharpness, solid construction, low price. Cons: non-AF, purple aberration at TA Opinion: I ordered the R-mount X Canon version directly on the Chinese website of 7Artisan and it arrived in 7 days with a lot of tracking and quick customs clearance. For those who have never used manual maf it will be a problem, for me who am old it was a return to the past. I won't hide the fact that I was tempted by the screaming aperture: in fact it's amazing, I can say that it has a margin of error similar to the Canon EF 1.2 that I've used a lot in the past. Let's say that the subject has to stand still because patching the focus is a moment, but when you center it there is a remarkable result. Closing a few stops the quality is there, it's a good 50ino, I didn't find any other defects except the purple chromatic aberration TA, which can be solved in the appropriate section of LR. Aberration, by the way, from which even the very expensive Canon luminaries suffer, so... In the hand it is very solid, metal and glass while maintaining its small size. I bought a screw-on 62mm aluminum lens hood on Amazon and the look gained from it. Oh I forgot it's for Aps-c I use it on R10, anyway in a full frame you just select the 1.6 crop format from the menu. Paid $ 199 with PayPal that proceeded to make the change in euri. The nice padded package is full of nice gadgets such as dust blower, electrostatic cloth, toothbrush, light fabric bag and even other incomprehensible contraptions. sent on April 20, 2024 |
![]() | Canon RF 14-35mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: Lightness, tropicalization, sharpness, versatility, stabilizer. Cons: L-series footprint, price, third bezel, vignetting. Opinion: After a long time I finally find that familiar effect of the old L series, I would say that three-dimensionality, (despite f4), that reportage aspect if used in the street with people as a subject. Very good sharpness, only high vignetting. Otherwise it's really good. Bought used very good condition with Amazon second hand, the lens was perfect, no scratches, there was the canon leather bag and the lens hood. I have an eos rp and this lens was not compatible as it required firmware update. It's there because this lens is very recent and my old room from 2020. It had never happened to me before that Canon on Canon did not go without sw updates. Anyway tried and I must say that it is lighter than expected and, even if nice big, it is ergonomically perfect: it grips well because it starts tight and then gradually widens on the zoom ring, making it easier to grip. The stabilizer is stunning; You really can shoot at night despite the relatively low maximum aperture brightness. Took night photos with headlight trails at 1/30th of a second of course without a tripod. It has proven to be a reliable travel companion, also because it is tropicalized and therefore 4 drops of water do not bother him. One thing that doesn't come naturally to me is the third ring common to RF lenses, I never use it as it just creates unnecessary distractions. When using for long exposures at night or with ND filters, you have to remember to take off the stabilizer otherwise they will be moved, as it does not recognize the tripod as some more expensive lenses do. Nice light but stable the lens hood supplied, relatively expensive lens because if in 5 years it is sold I have found that an L series keeps its value high so excellent goods for exchange or renewal of your lens park. sent on November 01, 2023 |
![]() | Canon 90D Pros: Electronic shutter, low weight, silenced shutter, 1/16000 max, battery, joystick. Articulated display, very comfortable and bright. Easy to change points and AF zone. Beautiful to see and to hold, Intuitive keys. Cons: Very high noise, megapixels, Af auxiliary range only with flash raised, pdc button difficult to the touch, aufofocus tracking. Opinion: It is certainly true that it has a versatile and modern fast AF, tracking works perfectly but only with faces, with animals it is often deceived, it has an excellent handle, the exceptional articulated display. The built-in flash agile and fast. The machine is not too heavy, the new joystick compared to the 80D to move the af point and many other beautiful things. But... It is a DISASTER over 1600 iso. If you look at it with the PC at 100x you remain very bad. A grain that you can not correct, with luminance of Lr (or directly in the room), you are forced to smear all the detail. Bad surprise. To overcome this problem the only one is to lower the quality and then setting the MP to 15. Unfortunately only in jpeg. In raw even a photo underexposed outdoors is enough and to pull up the shadows shoots throttle grain. So many megapixels but to do that? Too bad. sent on April 30, 2022 |
![]() | Canon EOS M50 Pros: Exceptional electronic Viewfinder, you can review the picture just taken without removing the eye. Efficient and accurate Electronics. Burst of quick shots, click in mute Mode, no sound, very useful to shoot in museums without getting noticed. Customizable Keys an accurate way. Compatible with all EF lenses thanks to the Canon adapter. AF fast and accurate, with Possibility to move UL Af point with the nose:) On the screen. Snap to touch. Cons: Not lightning-fast shooting from stand-by. Too small for big hands. Little intushable Keys without looking at them. A ring nut Is missing, an interchangeable creates confusion. Well.. Ridiculous Battery, I bought three more for safety Opinion: For a little more di500 euro, this machine is a masterpiece. I bought a kind of handle from Milo, a Polish guy on the internet that prints in 3D since too small if the uses with L series lenses. On A recent trip to Naples I needed 3 batteries to cover 12 hours of shots, however the quality is high boys.. Burst, and you can set up 4 types of autofocus. I customized that sort of joystick to get to the right way. You Have to lose a few days to set it in a practical way, but after it is completely exploitable as you want. Sensor Digic 8, reached high quality levels in raw CR3. Cleaner than 80D. Customizable Screen as information, very snodable, touch-sensitive, bright, rich in data. Flash of modest scope, but able to save you in a backlit portrait. In Short autofocus that pump ugly, excellent files and all lenses Canon... Just? sent on April 22, 2019 |
![]() | Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Pros: Sharpness, price, finish, aesthetics, flare resistance, Cons: Vignetting evident at TA. Opinion: Just received I made a hundred shots: indoor and outdoor. I must premise that I have used the 35mm Canon f 1.4 I (first series) for years. This is certainly better, sharper, even in the edges, excellent resistance to flare because it makes a beautiful star diaphragms closed with minimal artifacts or smudges. Fire always ok, some difficulties in manual with little light, but in autofocus it is not wrong one. So, lens that gives clear images and full of details, perhaps slightly chilly than the Canon. There are chromatic aberrations, but to see them you have to enlarge 200: 1. A strange episode: on the outside, in the middle of branches and trees, there were two small branches cut and paired and ... autofocus could not just bring them into focus. I thought it was around 7 pm, so little light, but it was enough to focus on a tree and everything worked perfectly. Mah .. for the rest I did rehearsals with the graph paper and the fire was very precise. I have a 5D III. The lens is beautiful, all black, longer than wide, heavy bllo,elegant with a wide rubberized focus ring that protects from scratches when you place the machine on a flat surface. Developed raw files with lightroom and I noticed that as exposure and tone I had to postproduce very little. Objective protection bag in the shape of a parallelepiped, a bit bulky and ugly. The two-tone leather bags by Canon are much cooler. For the rest, excellent goal. Very satisfied with the purchase. Oh I forgot: hood included with a precise bayonet joint. sent on March 28, 2018 |

![]() | Canon 80D Pros: light weight, easy to handle, excellent performance at high ISO, the remarkable touch screen capabilities, tracking auto focus on movies, tap-and-shoot fast, intuitive menus, information after shooting finally complete, swivel screen and foldable inside, file with bright colors and clean, bulb timer, time lapse, AWB in white priorities, Cons: flash transmitter seems more optical wireless. too widened autofocus points. User very thin paper instructions. long time to save images on the card. Position pdc button, battery consumption, CR2 files not readable by all software Opinion: After a couple of weeks I got to know the 80D, I have not regretted buying despite overcharge. The important thing is the quality of the high ISO sensor: very good, I would say better than the 5D Mark III that I use regularly. Well tested at events and I must say it's a great evening machine. Clearly there is noise, but the difference is that in PP is much easier to correct the excessive grain mainly by varying clarity and luminance are obtained with a photo reportage that aspect that quite satisfies. The built-in flash is a nice trinket to which I was not used, and when I remember that there is, if you need it, use it in e-ttl, smorzandolo a bit with the car in manual exposure, indoor, returns a sharp picture , balanced on the colors well, especially for close-ups. The same flash should handle external flash, acting as a wireless transmitter .... now if you are accustomed to using a Canon ST-E3-RT or one Yongnuo YN-E3-RT, forget to be able to gestire similar things. First the paper manual supplied with the machine, there is no trace of these functions, I found it in English here: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/0/0300022720/01/EOS_80D_Instruction_Manual_EN.pdf# page227 where there is a nice little sign saying: "the camera's master function can not be used for wireless flash photography with radio transmission" ........ so no flash RT !!!! Our bei RT 600 or other similar cinesate not be, unless they are not set at OPTICAL mode, and infrared. Anyway, you can also manage multiple flash and the transmitter can set the power, clear the built-in flash, but also those outside, if put into manual. Sorry if this is not clear but I have understood and experienced, I await your comments. Moving on to the wireless LAN function works well because it allows you to manage and transfer shots with the phone quickly, easily activated once coupled the connection request. insteadthe DLNA function is really laughable (even this is not explained in the manual) as you can see, for example. on TV, only jpeg images, no raw and no movies. Autofocus: on movies works fine, by touching the screen, quickly focuses and keeps the focus when the subject moves, the pictures, in LV you can activate the function touch-and-shoot, fast and effective, especially when the machine in hand to someone and not have to explain what the squares AF viewfinder, just tell him, in fact, touches and snaps. Always AF known that if I select nine squares in the viewfinder becomes a bit 'pushy, meaning they take up too big, and often activate all nine and framing eg, some first floor, are forced to set a single point, if I want to be sure that area, and only that, was in focus. Choose cmq mode of focus different, up to the automatic one to 45 points. The keys are the usual ones, missing the joystick, and tasto PDC, which I use instead to pass ONE SHOT> AI SERVO, it is very difficult to "feel" as put in an unlucky position, I can not even get us the habit. The 4 buttons on the top right panel, AF DRIVE ISO etc. They are intuitive and NOT a double function as in the 5D which create confusion. I appreciated that among the custom controls of the buttons is possible to set the SET button on the FLASH function, which was not there on the 5d, and is convenient because it allows you to get to the built-in flash settings without going through 3 screens the menu. Finally snapping repeatedly see that the red LED at the sd card, always hard to go out and is often slow in writing to a card, despite the use of an SDHC II 150MB / s. I have not tried to "pull" on the edge of 7fps, but I have my doubts about the performance from this point of vista.rnUna last thing on the touch functions, it is useful to say that they are very comfortable, now the habit is quella, in fact after you makes it hard to go back on a non-touch machine. The ability to zoom in, zoom scroll through the photos, navigate the menus are all touch. I think they work very well. It seems to me a complete and versatile aps-c car, and, I might add, that coming from a FFrame, I enjoyed the new life of my EF, my old 135 becomes a 216, a 50 quite a short telephoto for portraits 80mm and so on. Possible to vary the white balance from automatic to "automatic white priority", which means that also will attempt to maintain a clean white under tungsten light, and ... works. More I can not think for the moment. I hope to be of help for your choice or curiosity. sent on May 08, 2016 |
