Cons: Uncertain AF in low light; not stabilized; character, if you don't like it. Opinion: I got this lens, with Sony E mount, to have a compact and brighter alternative to the 16-50 kit that I sometimes like to use. Compactness and lightness are fine; my Sony a6000 with this lens remains pocket-sized. The construction seems to me well done; the aperture ring is a bit awkward but OK; the cork is badly made and always comes off; the back cap has a USB connection with which you can update the firmware (very simple operation). That said, let's see how it performs in practice. First: at the price of 130 Euros (new on Ebay), I think there is little to complain about. The autofocus is quiet, and when there is light, it works well; with little light it often struggles and, sometimes, it goes crazy and you have to do a "reboot", that is, detach the lens and reassemble it (turning the camera off and on again is not enough). In low light, I noticed that setting the focus area to "center" works better. Too bad there is no stabilization; but from 1/30'' upwards you can shoot by hand without problems. This is a lens with such a big character, which you may like or not. Strong vignetting up to f/8 (but from f/4 it corrects well in post); flares that can be either absent or so absurd as to be beautiful; a "swirly bokeh", less accentuated than the Helios 44* and therefore less invasive, which I find very nice. In my profile you can find some photos to get an idea. In my opinion, the best use of this lens is obviously for street photos, for interiors and especially for short-distance photos (objects, still lifes, flowers, animals, etc.), where it has excellent sharpness. You may or may not like his character. sent on March 03, 2025 |
 | Olympus 50mm f/1.8 OM F.Zuiko Pros: Sharpness, easy focusing, robustness Cons: Nothing Opinion: Recovered from my glorious Olympus OM 10 bought exactly 40 years ago. I didn't expect this lens to be so sharp, so easy to focus that it was super easy and enjoyable to use. After 40 years, it looks like new, which speaks in favor of its build quality. I mainly use it to make landscape mosaics; for this use it is the best lens I have (even the Helios 44-* are not bad). At f/11 it is also razor-sharp in the corners on my Sony a6000. For close-up use at large aperture, it makes a beautiful gradient with a hint of swirl. In summary: a wonderful lens that I am very happy about. 30 laude. sent on September 16, 2024 |
