![]() | Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS USM Pros: Construction, sharpness in TA, autofocus another level compared to the previous version. Presence of the stabilizer. Cons: Cost. Presence of a TA in Coma night photos. No lens hood and soft custudia. Opinion: After you have learned to appreciate the 35 mm with the old version I decided to try this new model. rnPer regarding the construction we're on another level, by the impression of extreme solidity and sturdiness. E 'already very sharp wide open and use is able to return a fuzzy soft and pleasant which greatly enhances the detachment of the plans. Great for portraits ambientati.rnAmavo the colors of the old version, saturated and warm. This new version seems more neutra.rnLa presence of the stabilizer allows you to take home shots in other situations are difficult to obtain. The motor autofocus and fast and responsive, a completely different planet than the old version. All of these improvements, however, come at a price, dimensions are doubles as well as the weight, however, nothing dramatic especially when compared to the latest releases lenses on the market (and 35ART 50ART, Zeiss) .rnPurtroppo I have found a considerable amount of coma in TA in tests of night photos, which is reduced by stopping down but at this point I would not recommend it to chi was intending to use it primarily in these ambiti.rnL'assenza in kit lens hood and soft pouch is anachronistic, especially considering that at the time of launch it was a lens 800 euro, a price much out of business. Now it was around 500euro with a slight trend in the final ribasso.rnIn excellent lens for those who love the classic focal length and do not want to use in astrophotography. the presence of the stabilizer, and other improvements makes it an excellent upgrade from the old version but at a price even a hair high. If you find it used around 400 euro is a good buy. sent on October 12, 2014 |
![]() | Canon EF 35mm f/2.0 Pros: Small, light, cheap, bright and 35mm Cons: Af unresponsive, bokeh a little too "polygonal". Opinion: After using the 24-105 long, I realized that the focal length of 35mm was often on in my shots. So I decided to take a 35mm focal classic to start experimenting with a fixed light. The choice could not not fall on the 35 f2 canon.rnLente a bit dated but able to return very beautiful pictures. Objective of limited size and low weight in combination with an SLR allows you to go around in a lightweight and inconspicuous. Being one of the first lens of the Eos system is not equipped with a usm af which makes focusing a bit slow and noisy, especially if compared with that of the lenses more moderne.rnL 'goal is always able to give a reasonable detachment of plans between the subject and the rest of the scene. The bokeh, because the diaphragm to five blades, it is not the softest in the world but when you consider what you are spending you can not ask for much more. A little sticker on TA, PP nothing that can not be easily corrected by software. The color rendering is faiththe and I have used especially for portraits settled, in which the use of 35mm esaltano.rnIn is ultimately a small and lightweight lens that allows you to familizzare with large openings at a decent price and that can be found on the used market around 200 Euros. If you do not ask too AF could be a very attractive lens for budget-conscious. sent on July 22, 2014 |
![]() | Canon 6D Pros: Camera Compact and lightweight, it combines compact dimensions the quality of sensorre FF. Good management of noise up to ISO 6400, can also be used on higher values. Excellent image quality and a central point of focus sensitive and accurate. Battery life. Wifi and GPS connectivity and geolocation. Costs. Cons: Maximum value shatter 1/4000. Wind gusts improved. Improved autofocus system. One slot for sd cards. No tropicalization more "push". HDR only in JPG format. Opinion: I went from 60D to 6D in March this year and several months of the jump can be said to be satisfied. The 6d is not the true replacement for the 5D mark II but an SLR is designed for all those who want to approach the FF without spending too significant digits. RNLA machine looks in size and contained weight and with an approach more similar to the 60D that their elder sisters. If this setting has been, by some, criticized, I never having used machines with the joystick confess I do not miss them. Good quality display, even if sometimes I regret that swivel of her younger sister. The resolution of the sensor is high and returns excellent images and allows you to appreciate the transition from APSC to FF. The colors are saturated but I have noticed a tendency to underexpose the machine. The autofocus system is the least thrust of the machine, perhaps to emphasize the difference with the 5dIII. The central point is very Sensile and accurate, others a bit less. The points are 11, maybe a few considering competingon the market, but it still works in an optimal manner. The burst is not the strong point of the machine, even though good, does not make it an SLR for sports photography. It lacks the flash pop up on the machine but it is a trend that follows Canon in all its machines evenings Pro and semipro. The lack of flash is, however, is balanced by the possibility to set the sensitivity to high ISO settings enabling shooting in low light situalizione. The sensor is able to optimally manage the noise until volori high, at 6400 ISO photos are perfectly usable, while going beyond this limit you start noticing the noise but the photos are still quite usable. I would have preferred the maximum shutter speed with a value of 1/8000s 1/4000s is because in some cases a threshold value especially if you use bright lenses. The gadget's availability by 6D are significant, GPS pemette geolocation of photos, as well as the function of the altimeter while :) WiFi allows for the connectactivities with computers and portable devices such as tablets and smartphones, giving the possibility of remote control truly remarkable. But attention to the use of these features are considerably cut down because the battery life, which otherwise has a remarkable ability and allows you to take almost seven hundred photos, but being thrifty you might be able to go even further. I would not have disdained the dual slot sd IMMULITE the possibility of HDR in RAW, but these are features that the parent company has implemented more expensive models. The absence of sealing could be heard, although I have made so far using me it gave the impression to resist well to splashes of rain and dust (no exaggeration). After a few months of use I can claim to be absolutely satisfied with the transition, the machine has always returned good files with high yield and high lights to significant improvements in the treatment of shadows (though improved). I recommend it to anyone who wants to make the leap to the FF and want to keep aeye to costs (batteries 60D, 5DIII, 7D and sd cards cheaper) and the weights. Great for landscapes and portraits, would not recommend it for sports and all those kinds that require more thrust and a flurry autofocus system more efficient. E 'and remains a good buy that I would recommend it fully. sent on October 20, 2013 |
![]() | Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX DG HSM Pros: Angle extreme. Low weight and dimensions compared to the technical specifications. Very controlled distortion even at 12mm. Excellent sharpness in the middle of the frame. Cons: Few in relation to what he does. Pronounced vignetting at full aperture. Sharpness decreases significantly towards the edge of the frame. Very pronounced front lens, you have to be careful when using it. You can not mount front filters, but only in the inner jelly. Opinion: After purchasing the Canon 6D, I started to feel much the lack of a wide angle lens that could sotituire pushed my old and glorious sigma 10-20. Initially I was directed to take the new version then on the forum I found this sigma 12-24. Mechanically very good so far, has never been any sign of malfunction AF. The weight and dimensions are appropriate to a lens that offers such a wide angle of view even if the front lens is really pronounced and must therefore be treated with care when weather conditions are not optimal (always carry rice paper and pump). Unfortunately, the transition from 10-20 to 12-24 this was not simple and easy as I had thought. Those 4 mm in less effective are felt all need a lot of care nell'ultilizzo, it is not uncommon to photograph particular unwanted or their feet. We must learn to become familiar with the management of light sources as you can be with flare and brightness dips side. Visible vignetting wide open, but I think ita secondary issue, given the level of correction that reached all the photo editing software. And 'possible to install gelatin filters back into the slot, while there are screw-on filters. I must say that after a few months of purchase I'm starting to get the feeling with this beautiful lens. Ultimately I think it is a good buy and a lens that pushes to enhance the extreme perspectives and creativity. It is not without flaws but the advantages outweigh them. I recommend it to lovers of wide angle. sent on July 21, 2013 |
![]() | Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM Pros: Price (I found it at 820 euro), the presence of stabilization, brightness, tripod mount ring Cons: Weight, lack of weather sealing, the focus ring is too small and with the hood "rest position" difficult to use. Opinion: Sigma 70-200 OS HSM is an excellent goal, perhaps not at the level of the Canon and Nikon, but definitely good. The images that returns are excellent although perhaps at full aperture the file is slightly soft, but you have to be fussy to feel it a real defect. It must be said that it is not a featherweight and mounted on the machine soon began to feel its weight, especially if you are not accustomed to using lenses so "full-bodied". The stabilization is good although a hair under 4 Stop declared by the manufacturer. Too bad for the lack of weather sealing, it would be served, but would have been a gem since its price, that we do not forget, is equal to half of the competitors "branded". I note that the ring of focus is unusable when the lens hood is mounted backwards and used in MF; another location would be better. I never had the chance to try it with multipliers and considered that it could turn into a 400 5.6 IS, not bad. The engine ofthe focus is fast although the lack of selection device of the distance makes it less quick canon. To signal the presence of the ring series for the tripod, saving not just, and the presence of the new sigma finish, more practical and robust, which is more resistant to signs of use. Used in the theater I was always returned good shots. Really recommended if you need 2.8 aperture especially considering the price competitive. Recommended for theater, concerts and indoor sports. If you need that extra edge sharpness and tropicalization take into consideration the Canon f4IS, for the rest of this sigma is a great obiettivo.rnAGGIORNAMENTO: After switching to 6D I can say that this lens has benefited, gaining clarity and yield the focus. I repeat a good buy and a good alternative to the most renowned lenses. sent on May 25, 2013 |
![]() | Tamron SP 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD Pros: Constant aperture over the entire focal length. Very clear and objective way, falls slightly to TA, you can cover focal lengths from wide angle to medium telephoto, lightweight and compact. The lens hood is included and 67 mm filters are cheaper to buy. Price on the new content that is on second. Cons: The autofocus motor is noisy and "slow" when compared to the various USM and HSM. Building a little plasticky materials. Hood often difficult to remove. Do not weather sealed and a few grains of dust, in certain circumstances, is able to penetrate inside when the zoom is extended. Opinion: Bought to be used as the lens handyman on my 60D, has always lived up to its name. Always clear, fails to return very sharp images and well balanced from the point of view of color. The autofocus is of an old design, so there is no need to ask the speed performance exaggerated. It's very good at his job but do not overdo it. The construction is a bit too plasticky, might return an impression of excessive strength, although I must say that in the end has always behaved very well. The positive side of the plastic used is in weight, really content combined with my 60D it was a pairing ideal for hiking backpacking. The lens hood often tends to get stuck and you have to do a lot of force to remove it. But apart from some peccadillo is a lens that I would strongly recommend to anyone who wanted to find an inexpensive alternative to the various objectives in the kit. Do not forget the price really tempting that makes a lens, good quality & aserious ;/ price. Recommended. sent on May 14, 2013 |
![]() | Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM Pros: Price, robustness and HSM. Distortions subsidiaries and color rendition. Ability to mount filters. Cons: No pull not to purchase due to the characteristics of the lens, you will notice a drop in sharpness at the edges, but given the wide field of view captured can be there. Painting and finishing sigma a little delicate. Opinion: This lens I was immediately won over because of its wide field of vision. Compared to competitors in the market is the cheapest (excluding the tamron) and I have always carried with me during all my travels. Robust and compact, I took in the mountains and in the desert without ever buckled under adverse weather conditions. It has excellent color rendering with saturated colors and faithful, also controls discreetly distortions. Of course it is not free from defects, in fact I have always noticed a drop in sharpness at the edges, but I think it's also a fair compromise seen the extreme focal manages to reach. It is not the brightest lens in the world but it is fully usable unless they are indispensable Aperture 3.5 or 2.8. I sold it after years of loyal service, with the understanding that it is a great goal, to go to the sigma 12-24, hoping to get the same results. Ideal introduction to the use of wide-angle recommend it as a travel companion, is able to give great satisfaction. sent on May 11, 2013 |
![]() | Canon 60D Pros: Good ergonomics, reduced weight and size compared to competitors. Movable monitor robust and practical. Excellent battery. The machine returns excellent files. Efficiency of the system and the competitive price now. A great all round machine. Excellent for macro and hikers. Cons: knowing what you are buying there are not many. Insufficient tropicalization and microtaratura autofocus. The autofocus system is a little dated, even if the point center cross is fast and responsive but you could do more. Use a DIGIC4 and you notice in the rendering at high iso. Opinion: I went to the 60D when I heard the need to try something more robust than a series XXXD. The jump was remarkable and I can say that he had been satisfied. The machine is well studied and the arrangement of the keys is functional. Despite the much-mentioned absence of the joystick, the wheel performs its function well. The monitor is articulated an excellent addition, and despite some initial concerns proved to be robust and practical. Useful in some situations, it gives the best of itself in macro photography and in some special situations. Although the machine is not tropical conditions, I was able to test it in enough situations to the limits, such as desert and high mountain, and employing the proper attention, the machine has never given me problems. Lighter ee slightly smaller than the 7D is a great traveling companion, great, but never cumbersome. The sensor is able to churn out high-quality images, is basically the same as the 7D. Up to 800 ISO is pienamente usable, ISO 1600 the noise is quite known, while in 3200 is evident. ISO 6400 is the usage limit, beyond which we must not go unless absolutely necessary. The form of focus is perhaps his Achilles heel, it is highly evolved and only 9 points of focus suffers when compared with those of the competition. This limit does not make the machine best suited to those dedicated to sports photography or photographic hunting, nevertheless the focus has always been responsive and accurate even in unfavorable lighting conditions. Not to be underestimated is the fact that the machine uses SD cards that if, for some it is a limit, it is from a economic point of view, a point in its favor, since they are cheaper and perhaps those coming from small canon has already provided some. Dignified the burst, especially when shooting in JPEG and having cards faster. Excellent battery life, which can be up to 1000 shots. Furthermore, the battery is the medesima of the 7D, 5DII and 6D; small details to take into consideration, especially in times of crisis. Interesting and useful also the ability to control an external flash via the flash popo-up of the machine, a gem that saves considerable and can bring the world of Remote control lighting flash. The video industry is very comprehensive and produces excellent video file, even if the system of focus is hard and not really responsive to follow the subject. Ultimately a machine more than satisfactory, too often criticized, which also has the advantage of not being overly expensive and readily available on the used market at reasonable prices, which is no small feat.
