![]() | Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Pros: "Plastic is always better than metal, less weight and lasts longer, autofocus, made in japan. Cons: fixed focal Opinion: in the average stat virtus recites a Latin proverb, it is the case of 50mm f 1.4, not a ciofeca like the 50mm f1.8 smooth or stm, not even exaggerated just as a price compared to the 50mm f 1.2 or f1, for just over 200 euros in the used market you bring home a dreaming lens. In the catalogue now since 93 has been the starting point for all the other 50mm canons placed on the market in the years to come. Shooting at full opening is the lens that makes wow exclaim!!! becomes etherea, at f1,4, but you just have to close to f2 to see images without loss of illuminatzine or sharpness, at f 2.8 are almost ok,the best of itself anyway this lens returns it between f4 and f6.3, I fixed it at f 5,6,a f5,6 and f6.3 the images are super sharp. It is a lens that does not need to close the diaphragm already to f8 becomes very soft, besides it is not necessary to go. The optics have conventional type diaphragm blades such as the 50mm f 1 which means a better yield in the backlight or fill in, the 50mm f1.2 has coiled slats. Compared to an f2.8 allows a shooting time 4 times faster and 4 times less iso sensitivity,always said that it is better to invest in a lens than to machine body, compared to a f 4.5 the shooting time is about 10 times higher as well as the iso sensitivity needed is 10 times less. The maximum qs lens for me from the portrait or on the American plane, the portrait is always soft, which always pleases women unless you give it in with the sharp correction in the car, on the American plane or whole subject manages to hide even the small defects and does not distort as certain zooms, the proportions of the subjects filmed are perfect and truthful, the naturalness of the subject taken is always top, as well as the three-dimensionality. Be careful, however, not to be misled, given the opening/brightness you do not have to give confidence is a moment to find images completely burned and devoid of detail as well as dark without contrast. Autofocus is really fast. One thing I like about this lens anyway is the three-dimensionality of the subjects filmed and that bokeh that is never annoying and intrusive as in so many other lenses, does not have a bokeh pushed like certain lenses that I hate that do not make you understand if a subject taken in the street was taken in new york, tokyo, or London because they blur in a brutal way flattening and making lose every detail in the background. Here is the 50 mm f 1.4 is propio this in the middle stat virtus, the virtue lies in the middle and, without bleeding the buyer's heswer. sent on July 19, 2020 |
![]() | Canon RF 85mm f/1.2 L USM DS Pros: the state-of-the-art optical engineering, for the best lens on the market at the moment, along with 85 rf 1.2 and 28/70 f2 rf Cons: price,weight over 1kg,no image stabilizer Opinion: February 2018-middlesex united kingdom,canon unveils to pro photographers the EOS R system, present all the Japanese management of the parent company of tokyo. I have the invitation, but I do not want to pay for the flight and a week of stay in the United Kingdom out of my own pocket, by pure chance I have to take a job in that of London, I like two pigeons with one bee, flight and stay paid by the customer. I also meet two, three English colleagues I haven't seen in years. We are shown the whole roadmap of the EOS R system, from the beginning until the end of the project, when he will be retired for the new system that will replace it, but I do not take notes because I do not care, and because I have little memory. A naivety with no more than 40 years, global product manager canon takes the floor. It begins to explain how the lenses are built, with the Rf attack a new element has been introduced between the lenses called BR (blue spectrum refractive) or something like that, practically the rgb waves (red, yellow, blue) have different wavelengths,sometimes causing unpleasant chromatic aberrations,especially lateral, canon technicians have patented this invention that cancels all aberrations by placing all colors on the same wavelength making the optics much sharper than its nominal opening. In fact if combined with my 85 ef 1.2 I have to say that the rf is much sharper. The optics give f2 images that anyone sees says WOW, although already at f1.2 it is sharp all over the frame. To the lovers of the bokeh I immediately say that this optics does not blur like a "normal" bokeh but offers a Guassian blur, for now the only one on the market, the bokeh produces details out of focus, the Guassian blur does not. One thing I noticed about this lens is the blurring,without texture or other unpleasant aliases,it looks like plastic that melts,as well without distorsione.la thing that can bother you is the noise of the motor of the autofocus,there is a lot and heavy to move,scor You have to have an STM in your hands, it's still the price to pay for having a lens in your hand that is state of the art, none like her, along with the 28/70 f2 rf, and I also have 10,000-dollar lenses. At the end of the explanation vine given on trial to all photographers present for three months an eos r with related lenses, the 85 1.2 normal and ds,28-70 f2.50 f 1,2,100-500 f 4,5-7,1,800 f 11 is stm rf. One of the canon managers tells me that in the end he can no longer do without this system,I wonder why?he answers me if he finds a better lens than the 85mm rf 1.2 ds and the 28/70 f 2 l rf usm canon gives him two more equals. I must say that that manager was right,not only for me but also for the other pros present.there is nothing to do again canon surprised me,which the other brands I have to support are not able to do.obviously the photographic product, it is not for niche brands or born yesterday, the photographic product requires considerable investments and a long research that those who are small or do not have market share can not afford, because they do not have resources to invest. sent on July 07, 2020 |
![]() | Canon 6D Mark II Pros: Aluminium alloy body,cheap,full frame,extraordinary technical quality of images, battery life over 1500 iimage,itutte batteries lp e6 are compatible,held high iso,noise never intrusive,45 autofocus points all cross not even the 5D mark IV gets to so much having 41,tropicalized body, minimum sensitivity 50 iso,made in japan not off shore as nikon or sony. Cons: Touch and orientable screen,no built-in flash,no second slot for boards,lcd top not readable. Opinion: Slightly heavier than the top-of-the-range mirrorless this camera returns images of an extraordinary quality and detail that usually in the canon house are seen over 26mpx,see 5ds/r, on the other hand it is much faster than a 5ds/r but at a price from new in liquidation. The autofocus is really worthy of that name,it does not miss a beat, but it lacks facial recognition or fire on the eyes, which you can do safely without. With the 50mm 1.4f 5.6 in indoors in normal light condition no noise is noticed up to 12,800 iso. The 6d has always been the top in its category, and with this new 6d markI,which in common with the old keeps only the number, must not make you think of an update or an add on, it is propial a whole new camera,that with the old 6d nothing to do, except that it is always the best economic full frame reflex on the market,finally with autofocus worthy of that name,added the flickr function, not present on the old 6.45 af points versus 11, the continuous click and autofocus are not as brutal and grumpy as the 7D mark II for which the handle is needed, camera that I continue to recommend for those who do sports, birdlife, but 6 frames per second can sun sun , the problem is the buffer. I do not know why but although possessing other top-of-the-range bodies the markII has become my first body,perhaps because of the lightness weighs little more than a mirrorless,try afre 10 hours with a 1d then nor repair,in short this is really the best body around in the house canon as long as you accept some compromise, certainly not for the quality of the images. I use it in coupled with these three,50mm f1.4,24-70 f2.8 L usm,28-135 is. sent on July 02, 2020 |
![]() | Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM Pros: zoom fluidity, optics and superb mechanics, is the only 24-70 canon that I have never brought in assistance,made in japan, always synonymous with quality for me, subject three-dimensionality, chromatic fidelity, an optics with caxxi in short. Cons: low-than-six pounds. Opinion: practically the quintessential canon optics, one of the best ever of the tokyo house, also compared to the latest versions in my possession, the only one that has never gone into assistance in 18 years,when the 24-70 f2.8 II sometimes there has been, every pro always has a 24-70 f 2.8 on the stock exchange, a reason there will be. The autofocus is fast, silent, instant even for moving subjects,compared to an f4 is or stm there is no history, even for subjects not well "illuminated", also because the stabilizer is only for the vibrations not of the subject taken if moving or dark,obviously the salty price compared to an f4 is everything. Never brought home photos out of focus even at full opening. What to say about the bokeh, this is an optics that has a blurry all its own even compared to the 85 1.2, the backgrounds seem to merge almost become plastic and blend with each other also compared to the leica 24-90 2.8 that I have in the other kit. The best of the blurry returns it at 70 mm with subject close. However, being a zoom the distortion at 24mm,28 and 70mm it shows, if you want to find the hair in the egg, but just make us a little eye and almost absent at 35mm and at 50mm, I have to say that it is never too annoying. An interesting thing compared to when I had it on film is that you just set in the peripheral lighting camera and you will not have dark corners, but you just have to close to f 5.6 or 6.3 and already becomes very sharp. I have never noticed images with spherocromatism and the chromatic fidelity is really such. But the best part where you see the quality of the optics is the backlight, always well balanced. The minimum focus distance is 0.38 m. A good used one can be found from 350/400 euros,think about it before you take home a f4 stm or L new,I would go on the 2.8 used,as I said there is no history, it's like comparing a supercar to a top-of-the-range sedan. sent on June 30, 2020 |
![]() | Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Pros: cost, weight, af, stabilizer + 4 stops Cons: some plastic too, but this figure hard to do better. Opinion: as all ultra-wide requires experience, just be very precise in the frame and vignettare / distorecere is a joke, as we must be able to compensate if the lights are not uniform + that's very own x via the wide angle field of view, but d ' On the other hand what other ultra wide nor not you? Bought by accident in December 2014 xchè hatred wide angles, even after trying the tokina 11-16 2.8, it is superb stabilizatore + 4 stop real, even in low light (night night) to 1/10 second hand shake-nothing, 10 mm + distorts but even that much, optical quality notevole.penso sell it soon or remain in the empyrean of my kit, the wide angle is a focal propio I can not stand. Mounted on aps-c is equivalent to a 16-29, photographing for example palaces, imposing architecture, cityscapes, skyscrapers meneghini, I have never been too long or too corto.Insomma if you want a wide-angle lens that will take many soddisfazioni this is your lens. sent on August 23, 2015 |
![]() | Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II USM Pros: all Cons: price, weight Opinion: I expected a lot of satisfaction from this lente.Puntualmente expectations were all soddisfatte.Da Canon always expected the best, since mid 90s reached a technological leadership that still holds, unattainable x all other manufacturers. This lens is a 'further conferma.A my opinion best class zoom lens so far possessed compared to Nikon and Sony, best lens entire range canon.Meccanicamente perfect, always returns incredibly excellent images in any situation. sent on June 28, 2015 |
![]() | Canon 7D Mark II Pros: fixed screen, af the best ever mounted on an SLR canon as lab tests, not surprisingly directly derived from military technology, lightning (sorry but I feel in mind other adjective) grumpy, bad and accurately without hesitation, perhaps as early responsive too, to be used with firmness and decision knowing what you have in your hands, go and put the whip, it seems with telepathy, in fact focheggia always where the brain and the mind of the photographer thought to aim the sensor signal noise af.Miglior Home canon, in fact in my opinion we will see soon also sulla'ammiraglia home, (perhaps with the EOS 1DX mark II), robust machine body, 12 frames per second, the filter flicker truly effective, dual sensor, which is always better than one, full hd video quality, so much so that I neither do the 4K if then I did not see the video x, possibility shooting multiple exposures in the guest rooms, function very creative without exaggeration as well as HDR, am rather do it in post production from a photo normale.Propio as I expected an EOS 1 DX, anzi in some ways even more and better data from independent laboratory, for 2000 euro, in fact even the 5D MK III all at once seemed obsolete, indeed it is good to see, what you want to + from vita.Otturatore guaranteed x 200 thousand shots, x always stay indoors only 1DX from 6000 euro is capable of doing meglio.Possibilità to work in full automatic ISO up to 6400 noise absent, like being at ISO 100 on any other reflex.mirino clear and bright with 100 % coverage, ie what you see inside, you see it even in foto.Gamma dynamic foto.Foto night which are then my passion as I expected them, with accurate colors and natural, well-defined and full of details even the small + even the areas of conflict are always well used, here I was able to fully appreciate the flicker function, the camera is only 12 frames per second, very recommended for photos statiche.In this month I photographed a bit of everything, from the faces relatives (Ecche can you do have time to waste), airliners taking off, birds, cats in the race, rally, paeessays, architecture, never once the machine failed to focuse on the first try and accurately, covering shots to pc and stampati.Non listen to anyone who speaks ill of this camera, or tells you and it does not have this, no the other, Understand this, does not even deserve a response, or is not able or is he really insane (in the medical sense of the term), now when I look at some reviews on the internet I veins to laugh, or think qualquno been paid by nikon , sony, leica proposito.Possibilità for mounting optics and EF EF-S, APS-C.Quello that made me make a decisive choice was rehearsals where equated markII 7D, 5D MarkIII, 1DX, try autofocus, noise, quality of files, sensor, gust, the 7D mark 2 has been able to win 5 of 8 trials. Cons: many hours reading the manual for those who do not come from a professional body, well over 500 pages, only the section autofocus are more than 50.macchinosa settings without some pratica.Pretende accuracy by the operator, do not think xchè you have 12 ftgs to succeed the first time to exploit it fully, you have to give us a little eye, as well as the AF, battery autonomy, advice default buy 2.Pesantezza body macchina.Solo 20 million pixels, but all well we know that the final resolution does not affect the quality of the photo, as well as iso on paper there are cameras capable of over 100000iso, but in fact inutilizzabili.Solo 12 frames per second, usually speech by bars, comparing to 15 with the EOS 1 DX friend, does not change nulla.Come have 12 cars or 15, you change your life? GPS x mè a function useless. Opinion: The'm using for about a month, do not tell you the first time I pulled it out of the box, I said, "that's it? I made one of my usual crap" .The first releases, what a disappointment, not force x I even read a page of the instruction manual, also x lack of time then, I read three or four times the area autofocus, and I try riprovo.bhè today if I were to offer in exchange aggrratttisssss any other camera body in exchange for the 7D markII answer without doubt dry and strong with a nice NO, without even thanks, in this case the deal would make the offerente.Con the old 7D of the friend that I used with great satisfaction some time in game drive in the continuous shooting function, has not nothing in common except the name 7D. sent on February 08, 2015 |
