The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II Pros: Lighter than the previous version Cons: AF noise, less sharpness than the previous version, even the least contrasted colors, price. Opinion: Used on the Fuji xt5 and compared to the old version I own. The only positive drawback compared to the old version is the lower weight. For the rest I don't see any reason to switch to this new version, I can tell you that at full aperture at 16mm the old version seems sharper to me and that it gives a better complexion and colors. The construction in the old version seems more solid to me. To sum up, do I recommend the new version switch? For me, no. sent on January 19, 2025 |
 | Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR Pros: Sharpness, solidity, materials used, focal range Cons: None in my opinion Opinion: Spectacular optics that now with the release of the II model can be found at excellent prices on the second-hand market. It covers a range of focal lengths perfect for weddings, reportage and landscapes. Quality of materials used for the construction of high quality, professional optics. As also read in another review here on the forum, to buy an optic with the same characteristics as other brands you spend three times as much, with a yield identical to this one. What can I say optics to have absolutely. sent on January 18, 2025 |
 | Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5 L Pros: Construction, price used, materials used Cons: Nothing Opinion: Historical perspective that is very usable today. Construction and materials used old school, a boulder. To date it can be found at affordable prices 500 / 600 euros. Fantastic for those who want to dabble with architecture and interior photos. Obviously the brother version two is much better in everything, but it costs an arm and a leg 2000 euros. For those who want to have fun and for lovers of architectural photography who want to have a small portable optical bench I recommend it. I sold it years ago and regretted it, as soon as I had the opportunity to find a used example in excellent condition I took it back. For those who say that now with Photoshop you can do without ts-e lenses. I say that perhaps they have never tried them. If you find it, don't miss it. sent on December 14, 2024 |
 | Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Pros: Small size, f/2.8 throughout focal length, price, sharpness, portability Cons: Non-premium materials, lack of aperture selector. Opinion: Bought to complement the Fuji XT5. I was looking for an optic with constant f/2.8, in the end I was undecided between three, Fuji f.2.8, in Tamron and Fuji. In the end my choice fell on him for the sharpness factor, size and cost. The Tamron has a longer focal length but weighs twice as much and also in size it is much longer so I discarded it. The Sigma qualitatively has more valuable materials but it also weighs a lot and costs twice as much as the sigma and then Fufji announced the new II version which apparently decreases in size but should cost around 1600 euros (too expensive). Let's go to the Sigma, I recommend it to those who need a light optic, it is of excellent quality, it has a scary sharpness almost as much as the Fuji at half the weight, size and cost. it is an excellent lens to always carry with you, it fits in a pocket, really small, I still wonder how Sigma managed to make such an optical at constant f2.8 with these dimensions. the only negative drawback, the materials a bit plastic, but guys at this price and with this quality in such a small size you can accept, another factor that is missing is the aperture selector, but I don't see it as a very negative influential factor because you can select them with the wheel in the dedicated camera body, so nothing special. In conclusion, I highly recommend it for those who travel, or do street or reportage and need a constant focal length range from 18 to 50 2.8 with an excellent quality of sharpness rendering in very small dimensions and a ridiculous very light weight. sent on October 16, 2024 |
 | Fujifilm X-PRO3 Pros: Design, size, sensor quality Cons: monitor connector that is damaged with wear, focusing with an inaccurate optical viewfinder, eyepiece rubber that cannot be replaced if worn. Very delicate Opinion: So, I state that I owned both the previous models xpro1 and xpro 2, what can I say, with the Xpro 3 love has not been triggered. Taken because I like to use the hybrid viewfinder and its vintage style design. When I used the IVS viewfinder no problem, but when I used the optical viewfinder I always had problems locking on to the subject. As for the display, if you often use the opening the cable that connects the screen to the machine with use over time is damaged and then to talk it again costs an arm and a leg and the machine must be shipped (I don't know where) with very long times, to a friend of mine they returned it after 4 months, really embarrassing assistance especially because it is a defect known to the parent company, as it is sent for assistance only for this problem. I can tell you that when I was trying to buy it I found many used examples that had this problem, so I think it is a design problem. A piece of advice I can give to those who want to buy it is to check the internal display and the opening, you risk buying a faulty sample. Another defect that affects the xpro3 found in the past also with the xpro 1 is the eyepiece rubber, very delicate that you want or don't want it wears out over time, which cannot be replaced, but we are joking ... In conclusion, beautiful machine but too delicate for intensive use over time. sent on October 04, 2024 |
 | Fujifilm X-T5 Pros: AF Flight, Compactness, Speed, Lightness Cons: You can't put a battery greap to use for vertical photos Opinion: Little jewel taken to replace my Xpro 3 with which the fealing did not start. I can say that I found myself very well, responsive, small size and super fast, excellent viewfinder. The only negative drawback is not that you can put a battery greap to be used for vertical photos with the dedicated keys, it was not designed. sent on October 03, 2024 |
 | Leica Q3 Pros: None in my opinion compared to q2 Cons: tilting screen Opinion: Tested for an hour at the Leica Store. As a Q2 owner I can tell you that I did not find any improvement to justify the switch. Indeed I can tell you that from the point of view of design, the tilting screen is an eyesore I did not like. They added wireless charging, let's say that in my opinion it does not serve much, they put an increased battery, but the battery of the Q2 was already enough. In conclusion, after seeing the files in the evening on the PC, I can say that in my situation it makes no sense to change, I prefer the Q2 in everything, which in my opinion is splendid. sent on May 30, 2023 |
 | Voigtlander VM Nokton 35 mm f/1.4 MC Pros: Compact, brightness 1.4 , construction materials, excellent contrast, price Cons: focusing distance. cost of hood. Opinion: Excellent lens for leica at a low price compared to the Leica lenses of the parent company, I use it on an M8 is from excellent results, it is compact, well solid, with an excellent complexion and excellent contrasts. The only flaw in my opinion, the focusing distance. Recommended for all those looking for a lens at a good price without having to faint excessively. sent on May 26, 2023 |
 | Leica Q2 Pros: Compactness, objective quality, FF, materials used. Cons: Only one SD card, cost (although now prices are falling given the release of Q3). - battery cost. Opinion: Already owner of Leica Q that I sold, I found a Q2 practically new at a price (given the release of the Q3 shortly) that I could not take. I consider it beautiful, superlative image quality. Compared to the Q first series the sensor is much better, the focus is also improved. For those who buy it, I recommend it, since prices are falling due to the imminent release of Q3. Excellent Reportage machine. sent on May 25, 2023 |
 | 7artisans M35mm f/2 Pros: compactness. Cons: optical quality, lack of sharpness, focus calibration problems. Really bad Opinion: Bought used and resold immediately. I had problems calibrating the focus, I would say that to calibrate it is a lot terno, you have to use a screwdriver and do various tests. For me it is a lens not to buy. Let's not talk about the really bad sharpness both in the center and in the broths. The only positive drawback is the compactness, you put it in your pocket so as not to use it :-P . I don't recommend it at all. sent on April 29, 2023 |
 | Leica M8 / M8.2 Pros: Kodak CCD sensor, black and white quality due to the lack of bayer filters, compactness, design. It feels like you have a film machine. price. Cons: ISO tightness, lack of Bayer filter filters (which is also a Pro) that makes the blacks purple. Missing spare parts LCD monitor. Opinion: The secular M8 in my opinion is gorgeous, compact, Kodak CCD sensor that churns out a fantastic black and white, indeed I would say poetic. Obviously for those who want to use it in color, you will have to apply a filter on the lens to prevent blacks from turning purple on some occasions. The ISO seal obviously cannot be compared to today's machines, but those who buy an M8 know what they are buying otherwise they go on something else. For me it is my jewel of the house, like having a Ferrari collector to use on special occasions, I feel like going back in time, I put it in black and white, low iso and you go to photograph. Ormani is also at great prices. I advise you to find it with a few clicks, and be careful that the screen works well, because LCD is no longer repairable. sent on April 29, 2023 |
 | Leica Q (Typ 116) Pros: Lens quality, construction materials, a little gem. Cons: continuous focus that does not go at all, they could even not insert it, problems with dust infiltration, you have to cover the microphones with insulating tape, electronic viewfinder not at the levels of the current on the market. Opinion: You say, but in 2023 it is still valid. NI. It has superlative image quality, color rendering. Materials of the highest quality. In the cons what I put. Continuous focus not good and lack of being able to change lens, but those who buy a leica know what they are buying otherwise it goes on something else, surely if I have to do sports I use my canon r6, this leica q was born for lovers of pure reportage. problems with dust infiltration, microphones must be covered with insulating tape, electronic viewfinder not at the levels of current on the market. Conclusions, to so many defects and so many defects, either you love it or you hate it. sent on March 21, 2023 |
 | Canon RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM Pros: Sharpness, stabilization, focus distance, great for portraiture. Cons: Stm focus not good for macro photography. Opinion: Purchased as a replacement for the ef 85 mm f 1.8. My opinion is as follows. Excellent sharpness already at full aperture f2. higher than my warning to the sharpness of the old EF 85 1.8. The stabilization and focusing distance is another point in its favor, I use it for portraits , although officially it is considered a macro lens. As for the focus, Achilles heel as I had read in many reviews on this lens, I do not find it so dramatic, I consider it at the same level as the predecessor, for portraits I do not find any problem, obviously if I had to use it to make macro photos, after having had EF100 mm f 2.8. , is actually lower. In conclusion, I recommend it for portraiture, who switches to the microless system is has a buget to invest, I recommend selling the old and take this, you gain in sharpness, focusing distance and image stabilization and ergonomics not using the adapter. Instead I do not recommend it for macro because of the stm focus, for macro at the same price you will find used EF 100 macro 2.8 to use with adapter. sent on January 02, 2023 |
 | Fujifilm XF 35mm f/2 R WR Pros: Size, fast focus, very quiet internal focus motor, excellent materials. Cons: If it had been brighter it would have been the top, but you can't have everything in life. Ridiculous hood. Opinion: I was undecided whether to take the 35 F1.4 or the F2 version, tried both, in the end I chose the F1.4 version, for fundamental factors, I use it mainly in the street, and in combination with the T30 it is really good, silent shot of the T30 + silent internal focus of the 35 f2 are a perfect match. Nothing to take away from the 35 1.4 , but it is really too noisy, and the external focus really annoying. The hood supplied with the 35 f2 is really scandalous, at this point do not put it ... Cmq for the rest is an excellent lens also for portraits, very sharp, I also experience at f2, differently from the 35 1.4 that to have a good sharpness had to be brought to an aperture of F2 or greater, further thing that made me choose the F2 version of the 35 mm. sent on February 23, 2022 |
 | Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L USM Pros: brightness, sharpness, sublime blur, color rendering. Cons: none in my opinion Opinion: I have owned it for several years, what to say, excellent lens that still today in 2021 can have its say. It lacks the stabilized, but it is an optics that when you use the Ami, excellent color rendering, excellent sharpness, sublime blur. It is understandable why the canon after so many years still keeps it in production. I highly recommend it. Excellent lens to have in your photographic kit and jealously guard. sent on October 15, 2021 |
 | Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: All-round, stabilized, great for traveling, cost, color rendering, solidity Cons: acceptable sharpness, barrel does not freeze. Opinion: Taken used at a good price 300 euros. All-round lens with a great focal length range, stabilized excellent construction. . Great for traveling. in the cons I put the lack of the block of the barrel that tends when put to collapse to stretch to the maximum focal .. Excellent color rendering and good sharpness. I recommend it if you find it used at a good price, 300 euros max, as an all-rounder, to take with you on trips. sent on October 15, 2021 |
 | Fujifilm X-T30 Pros: Price, size, burst, silent shooting with electronic shutter, autofocus Cons: touch screen can be improved, viewfinder can be improved, screen not fully articulated, battery life Opinion: Taken recently at a very low price (certainly because now the T30 II version is coming out that from the features I have read does not change almost anything compared to the old model). Combined with an 18 mm F 2 of fuji it becomes a super compact to always carry with you (about 500 grams including lens). What can I say. Super compact size, I take it to flank it with other camera bodies that I have of Canon. If you need it to do street and always carry it with you is great, for more professional jobs I do not recommend it of course, because being very small you have difficulties in management. The features that make it perfect for street photography in my opinion are the following: Compact, lightweight, excellent autofocus even with facial and eye recognition, possibility to select the electronic shutter that is practically noise-free, so it is not heard when shooting on the street if you do not want to be noticed. The cons has my opinion is the touch of the screen, accustomed for example to that of the Canon RP which is really exceptional, this of the t30 is inferior in responsiveness. What can I say, right now it is at a great price, if you are looking for a light street SLR to always carry with you I recommend it. sent on October 15, 2021 |
 | Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Pros: Compact, stabilized, excellent macro. Cons: Somewhat slow focus, external lens excursion Opinion: Taken for L my Canon rp. What can I say. A good lens to use for the street, even for video, given the stabilized. I find it great, I also have a sigma art 35 1.4 a poem, but at the same time it is heavy, and when I go out I prefer to bring rf since there is no need for the adapter and it is more compact. What can I say, a great all-rounder. As for the focus, criticized by all. Actually it is a bit annoying, to me sincerely annoying this external advancement of the optics. I would have preferred an internal movement without lens excursions and also a compactness similar to the rf 50 mm 1.8 or the new rf 16 mm that is about to come out. But the stabilization I know that forced canon designers to increase the size. In summary . Yes I recommend it sent on October 07, 2021 |
 | Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM Pros: Cost, lightweight, compact, programmable bezel. Cons: None in my opinion Opinion: Bought to match my Canon eos rp, which with this lens becomes a compact. Very light lens, excellent blurred at 1.8. Very sharp. At this price, how not to buy it. I highly recommend it to everyone. Excellent optics to always carry with you and also always keep attached to the REFLEX in street exits or for room portraits. Great great sent on October 07, 2021 |
 | Canon EOS R6 Pros: Size, autofocus, dual slot sd Cons: Price, lack of top display, battery grip at an unmissable price Opinion: Tried for two weeks. Compared to a 6D Mark II canon that I currently have. From a photographic point of view I denote an improvement only from the point of view of the car focus hooks the eyes or face and no longer gives up the subject in liveview mode and the presence of the double slot sd. From the point of view of file quality, high iso seal and shadow recovery, I don't see any improvement over the 6D Mark II files I have, which I consider identical. From a video point of view I can not give any judgment as I use the REFLEX only in the photographic field. In conclusion I decided at the time not to take it and keep the 6D Mark II. As the r6 costs twice as much as the Canon 6D Mark II and for my current use (photo only) I do not justify its expense, especially because, take me crazy but at times the old viewfinder of the 6D Mark II has a higher responsiveness than the electronic viewfinder... I would also add that the battery grip of the r6 costs 500 euros... Madness.... it is identical to that of the 6D mark II which costs 140.... I think the correct price of the r6 should be around 1800 to justify its spending... I will probably evaluate its passage when it comes down sharply in price. sent on December 27, 2020 |
 | Canon 6D Mark II Pros: Autofocus, speed, ergonomics, price, image quality, burst. Cons: Lack of double slots sd. Opinion: One of the best SLRs you've ever had. Great price, deadly autofocus, top 6 frame burst. Only flaw. Lack of second slot sd. With the double slot it would have been perfect. The board in 2020. Certainly. The sensor pays off with fantastic colors. I also had 6D. But 6D Mark II made an abysmal leap. Two SLRs that can't even be compared. Especially autofocus. sent on November 30, 2020 |
 | Canon EOS RP Pros: small and light, great autofocus, full frame Cons: unbalanced with heavy optics. Opinion: socket to flank a 6d mark ii as the second machine body. I can say that I was very satisfied. I recommend it for those who want to travel light. it is responsive and has a great autofocus. The quality of the viewfinder is also very good. With heavy and large optics you notice a lot of imbalance towards the goal. I didn't have any problems with the adapter. Great screen with which you can move your finger the focus while looking in the crosshairs (one thing I love). Would I ever sell the 6d mark ii to keep only the Rp.? I'd say No,,. The 6d mark ii cannot be replaced. Looking at the light with the optical sight is something I could never give up... then I feel it much more solid. more work reflex, much more balanced. To put it mild. I have to photograph a baptism, I have to take sports photos, I carry the 6d mark ii. I have to go out and street, or a week out of town, I bring the RP. What would I ask canon to improve it? nothing, or maybe yes, of the light and small optics to match... sent on January 30, 2020 |
 | Canon 6D Pros: Great files, Wife and lightness, shadow recovery, great quality at high iso. Great price Cons: Not suitable for sports or fauna Opinion: Reflex in my opinion wonderful. Grip To mount the 5D Mark II. But in the end I kept the 6D and sold the 5D Mark II. For me it is a perfect reflex to travel and to do reportage. Lightweight and full frame. For those who complain about the meter, I advise you to take a basic photo course and then buy a fullframe reflex. It is a very reactive reflection, for the price it is now, the new 1050 euros worth every penny spent. There are few focus points, okay, but you're willing to spend $ 1000 more to fill this gap and buy a 6D Mark II or a 5d Mark III ..... I highly recommend it except for those who photograph wildlife and sports. As for the comparison with the 5d Mark II, the passage is noticeable. The 6D is more responsive, better holds the iso and retrieves the shadows better. Focusing is also better. What can I say, I recommend the passage. sent on October 26, 2017 |
 | Fujifilm X10 Pros: no, just disappointing Cons: battery life, viewfinder unusable, poor quality file. Opinion: For me it is a disappointment, really bad quality files, Raw unusable battery nonexistent. Bad in everything. The only positive point, which is pretty retro appearance. For everything else, there are compact lower prices with higher quality. This sensor Fuji is to throw. DISAPPOINTMENT sent on March 23, 2014 |
 | Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Pros: Price, sharpness wide open, quality of construction, Broken in my opinion better than the Canon 35 L 1.4. Cons: None Opinion: Great lens, I compared it with the canon 35 f2 where I come from, and with the Canon 35 f2 and 35 1 .4. I can tell you that tears cleanly objectives listed above. From F1.4 up to 2.8 f has no rival. In street photography might give you some trouble, as it weighs a bit '. But it is a matter of habit. Excellent optical reportage. Combined with a FF I think it's the best optics for street and reportage.rnLa highly recommend it. Optics professional at a great cost. Sigma is making forward passes, even leaps forward with its new series of lenses. Complimenti.rn sent on March 23, 2014 |
 | Canon 5D Mark II Pros: Image quality at high ISO, three-dimensional pictures, files lavorabilissimi with fantastic detail! Cons: Raffia slow, lack of double slot 2 Cf Opinion: What can I say. Machine to buy is never sell, for those who make low-light portraits, reportage is a fantastic machine. Light and robust at the same time. The files that have that effect produces three-dimensional and the smoothness that only a FF sensor can give. The yield at high iso is excellent, I use it to take pictures indoors in low light and I have to tell you that I have given to the journal in which public photos up to ISO 3500 with no noise and above all without any complaints from the graph of the magazine. The only flaw burst and the lack of dual CF slot. Conclusions. For those who do not have the money to buy a 5d mark III and requires a FF sensor with characteristics that an APSC will never give, the 5D is a great fulfill purchase. The time now is new in 1600 for a paltry price EUO acting like that. Consigliatissima sent on May 12, 2012 |
 | Canon 40D Pros: Price, construction, focus good, indestructible Cons: above 800 iso almost unusable. Opinion: Great body, to never sell, up to 800 ISO pictures in my opinion produces identical to the canon 7d. Now I use it as a second camera body is always great satisfaction to me. For me it is one of the best canon successful in recent years obviously talking about semi pro. Produces the best raw up to 800 ISO, above files are almost unusable, but what can you expect more. Excellent burst 6.5 fps. What can I say I do not sell. sent on September 27, 2011 |

Opinion: I used this lens, but I was very disappointed, of course with a price so low you can not expect anything. The sold as soon as I could. The construction material is very poor, focus ridiculous, sharpness non-existent in large openings. Optics to avoid, I suggest you save a little and buy the 50 mm 1.4.
