The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Sigma 65mm f/2 DG DN C Pros: EVERYTHING about optical quality, a little gem Cons: It's not F1.4, it scratches easily Opinion: Sharpness and blur are nice and consistent across all distances. It is a flawless, small lens that offers great satisfaction. It may be a cinema lens intended for expensive productions, but it is sold as a photographic lens at an affordable price. Now I would have to write more to get to 350 characters otherwise juza doesn't approve of my comment. sent on January 07, 2024 |
 | Viltrox AF 85mm f/1.8 II Pros: Incredible q/p ratio, overall quality, blurred color at all distances, neutral colors tending to warm, sharpness, AF always accurate, comfortable and balanced, possibility to update the firmware without accessories and with extreme ease. Cons: for some strange reason closing the diapheramma after f2.8, the autofocus becomes less reliable (I almost always use it at TA), maybe a bit the size Opinion: A little considered lens, certainly better than the sony that I found it too contrasty on the shadows, it filters little or no UV and with a very bad bokeh at certain distances. I use it a lot with satisfaction. Great for events and portraits. Even in the evening the shots are all perfect on my a7 III, where it is always hooked. The blur is very nice, it creates a subject-to-background detachment from expensive lens. Unlike the sony, the overall color rendering is warmer and very natural. Really recommended. Sometimes it is found at affordable prices. Brava viltrox now update the 50mm 1.8 because it didn't turn out as well for you. sent on January 07, 2024 |
 | Samyang AF 18mm f/2.8 FE Pros: Distortion, lightness, q.i. in the center. High-performance continuous autofocus, great for video Cons: Expensive for what it offers, good edge performance but without excelling, excessive flare in some conditions Opinion: I took it because I needed a light wide angle, and that's fine, it's a feather. Overall it's a good lens, but if I think I paid it three hundred euros it doesn't seem like a fair price. The surprising thing is that it does not distort, and even if the subjects are close, the elongation factor at the edges is really minimal, this quality in moving videos is really a huge advantage. sent on August 24, 2021 |
 | Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Pros: Lightness Cons: Compared to the equivalent canon stm costs too much. Accurate but slow for quick subjects. Audable in videos in quiet environments. Plastic that doesn't give a feeling of excessive durability Opinion: By chance I had tried a couple of different, one at f 1.8 was not very sharp, the other was good. Alongside my sigma art 50mm that weighs a ton, especially when they are not jobs where the lens makes the difference, I took one used cheaply that at f1.8 is super sharp, otherwise I would not have taken it. Obviously at the edges you don't have to expect the same quality, but it is comparable to all 50mm 1.8 of the latest generation (except the Z that is on a world apart) The bokeh is bubble, nothing creamy anyway pleasant, in line with the price range. On my a7III is fine and they are all precisely in focus. The af engine is stable and precise, the only flaw if you have to make a near-distant fire change and vice versa, it takes a while compared to a more expensive goal. At the end of the story, all right? Yes, but only if you catch a sharp specimen. Great if you want to go light. If you have money to spend there is also the 45mm samyang that has a decidedly nice bokeh, but those 5mm make the difference, in the end they do not overlap. sent on September 29, 2020 |
 | Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Pros: Sharpness always and anyway, romantic flare, contrast, precision of fire, almost non-existent chromatic aberrations, excellent MF ring for the search for fire in the video. Cons: Great for gym Opinion: I have a canon that I use with mc11 on an a7II. Shoot at 1.4 making the skin crawl. He never misses one. Too bad for the weight, my lady, not so much in use because it is balanced, but in the bag makes a difference. Bokeh great only if the subject is quite detached from the background otherwise nothing special. Recommended if you need absolute precision and take shots of events where you do not have the opportunity to repeat. Typical colors sigma, like, do not like, "do vobis", I do not mind. sent on September 08, 2020 |
 | Sony FE 24-105mm f/4 G OSS Pros: He excels in everything but has two flaws Cons: About two specimens I tried ... Read below Opinion: On two specimens that I tried the stabilizer corrects well but always remains an annoying residual move visible in the videos, in other words "takes away the bulk" of the movements by hand, but something micro remains. Another problem, but you can not get around, even if there are internal and LR profiles that correct the distortion, iIN GRANDANGOLO and at medium and short distances this is not enough. The result is too elongated subjects at the edges. Beautiful colors (typical sony but this one has a beautiful complexion and is above the average of G), nice bokeh when used in canvases. Absolutely versatile. Impeccable construction, suitable for intensive and professional use. Is it worth 1000 euros and passes what it costs? If you have to take advantage of it, you probably will. sent on April 26, 2020 |
 | Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III RXD Pros: Colors, bokeh on some focal points, light, pleasantly smooth zoom ring and controllable even for micro adjustments. Cons: Soft at the edges at 28mm. A little overpri't. Manual fire in un progressive videos Opinion: Interesting optics if you don't want to weigh down the bag. It produces always pleasant images, with beautiful colors even in difficult situations, very three-dimensional even if you shoot at high f-stops. An optics that if put on a test bench with technical tests shows limits, but that in real life reviewing the photos leaves me amazed by the brilliance of the colors. The complexion is correct and pleasant without manly passages on the shadows. I confirm that it is a good view, costing a thread less would be more consistent. Automatic fire in videos always without problems, when passing in manual make adjustments without making mistakes becomes difficult, the servo is not studied at its best. Better work in AF all the time. Not bad. I will say no more because everything has been said on the internet and the opposite of everything, between youtubbber and last hour reviewers. sent on April 26, 2020 |
 | Samyang AF 24mm f/2.8 FE Pros: Colors, sharpness, cost, AF-C, AF video inaudible. Cons: Ta vignette, AF-S Opinion: Cute optics, tiny, beautiful colors, good ability to close up, bokeh limited by the nature of the focal but very pleasant. Nitdissima at 2.8 with a if: If I use the AF-S tends to stop the fire slightly forward, instead it splits the pixel if it is in continuous AF. I don't know why, I have an a7-3 and no other lens makes me this trick. The problem is imperceptible but there is. I took it for video, to use on the gimbal. That's what I wanted! Pictured I use it in AF C and I feel great anyway. sent on April 26, 2020 |

 | Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 Pros: Light, balanced, no optical defects, sharp enough at 1.8, af precise, few or no chromatic aberrations. Feeling safe during the shoot Cons: Color rendering a bit flat, sharpness at 1.8 not excellent but still good, expensive for what it offers. Kind of like Sony optics are painted aluminum, so in a few years I'm imagining it scratched. Scratch-sensitive lampshade because it is not painted Opinion: A good lens that does what you'd expect from an 85mm. I use it for wedding photo reportage and some close up portraits and I have no valid reason to keep looking around. Af video great. The hairs in the egg that I can find: Bokeh good but nothing special, af photo precise but out of 10 photos a couple can get it wrong (and there it is), cold colors and complexions tending to brown, but you know that sony glasses are so for the most part... (I like the warm colors of canons and samyangs so they're biased) I didn't find any problems with flares. It would cost 400 euros (street price) would be better. The equivalent ef canon after 20 years still has much to say if compared to this one. sent on April 26, 2020 |
 | Samyang AF 45mm f/1.8 FE Pros: Speed and precision AF, light and practical, beautiful pleasant warm rendering, precise and constant MF dial, soft bokeh, almost absolute silence. Cons: Bokeh a little strange only in some fire distances, nothing serious. Paralight with a block click not quite strong. Light focus breathing for the video. Minimum distance of fire not exceptional. Opinion: Before writing the review, I brought with me the lens in question for 3 weddings, 1 video and 2 photos, I realized that samyang is serious. Exceptional lens with his own character. Done well, fast and precise, it always works constantly making you forget that it is not a sony lens. Mf dile on the really remarkable video. Warm colors, sharp already at f1.8, always focuses even in the dark in both AF-S and AF-C. I'd definitely buy it back. And then it's so light that in the bag you can't hear it, on the car from a sense of carefreeness given the weight. The 45mm focal is really interesting. The other side of the "normal" focal (if you are used to the fifty) Recommended especially for events and portraits. sent on October 03, 2019 |
 | Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 Pros: Absolute sharpness, top-of-class fire speed, parasitic light control, distortion, weight, neutral color rendering, MF control in videos and no focus breathing Cons: Obviously it's not a monster bokeh, I'm detached from the subject that's there but it's not overbearing. More suited to the street than to portraits... so to speak. Opinion: (Follows first opinion 28 Sep 2019) If I think that with 500 euros more I would have taken the 35mm 1.4 zeiss FE a little bit comes to think, but the lightness, the sharpness, the feeling of comfort that transmits is very high. For a mirrorless sony is proportionate, the sibling as bright as size I find it exaggerated. Excellent automatic fire, without flaws, pecks 10 out of 10, both in Af-c and af-s (Sony A7III) A lens that you never put in crisis already from f 1.8 and for no light condition. Made first in the class, a little poor in character for its excessive precision, but of course it pays off with images without flaws. If you need something more "romantic" and portrait, then I recommend the 1.4 competition between sigma or samyang (or the sony itself)... If you are a wedding photographer with real spontaneous reportage, with this do not go wrong. I saw a review that said that the sigma was sharper than this at the edges, I deny saying that probably its sony specimen was not perfect because on mine I did not notice any of this. (we update on November 10, 2019) I can confirm the absolute precision of this lens in every way, from photos to video. I use it for events is a reference when I need to go on the safe side. Only micro regret about the fact that it is not a "monster bokeh" but what is there is correct and homogeneous even in the corners. sent on September 28, 2019 |
 | Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM Pros: All Cons: Slight distortion but absolutely correctable in post Opinion: Excellent lens in every respect. A bit of distortion at 16mm, but with the correction in post or in the room, eliminates the only flaw, making it perfect. Speed, sharpness even up to the edges, colors, high contrast, tightness of flare, quality of the blurred, ergonomics, stabilizer. Great lens. Works fine with MC11 and Sony A7 III sent on February 22, 2019 |
 | Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM Pros: All Cons: Unique in the are the vignetting, correctable in post with automatic profiles, and the beige painting too light. Opinion: I should sell it to switch to Sony FF, and among all the lenses is the one that I regret most to sell. Do not miss a photo, whatever the genre you want to photograph. Light, sharp, balanced, chromatically excellent, gives perfect images, even too much, sometimes seem fake so they are perfectly in focus. Over time it has ruined the surface paint, not for scratches, the white color is actually a thin layer on the bottom of black paint. Too bad, because I used it with regard. sent on November 28, 2018 |
 | Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS Pros: Lightweight, compact, phenomenal stabilizer, F4 brightness on all focal, electronic zoom but very fast, practical, nice from 50mm onwards, good contrast. Cons: At the short focals has a slightly blurred astigmatic, minimum distance of variable focus according to focal, graying problem for flare only at long focal lengths, resolves by moving little. Opinion: Used especially for videos with a A6500, what to add... that the minimum distance of fire improves to about 70mm, strange but true. It's not constant. Overall it is a good all-rounder lens, mandatory to correct distortion and vignetting in the room or post, done this is a great zoom lens, with obvious limits of its category... This "trick" that Sony uses heavily (the correction in And it works, it allows you to keep your lenses compact. Coloru The stabilizer is great, especially for videos. Resolution from 18 to 35mm good but nothing exciting. For the videos enough and advances. Looking for something like that? Absolutely recommended. sent on November 03, 2018 |
 | Canon EF 100mm f/2.0 USM Pros: Light, compact, chromatic rendering, balanced contrast even in critical situations, resistance to backlighting and parasitic lights, precise and lightning-fast fire. Cons: Lens hood not included, lack is but they were other times. Opinion: A good reason to keep it close is its surrender, it is too contrasting and not even vintage. It's already sharp at f 2.0! At 5.6 It makes all the pixels of the machine sweat... and I'm 30mp. A bit soft on the sides if used to f 2.0, but no astigmatism or artifacts, so no problem for the final images... but I talk about the unnecessary magnification to monitor. It's perfect, I love it. If used well, no one goes indifferent to his images. I had the 85mm 1.8 brother of this, and it has no real points in favor, the 100mm is along that little bit more than for the portraiture establishes the correct distances. Plus it has a bokeh with personality, it tends slightly to create concentric but soft games, without astigmatism, and to me this thing drives me crazy. It's him, I could recognize him among others. I also use it on the Sony a6500 for videos, with MC11, the focus ring is not among the most fluid but it works well, the manual focus is immediately at first shot without games. Compact, no mistake a fire. sent on October 31, 2018 |
 | Canon EF 24-105mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Pros: Weight, cost, optical quality, colors, stabilizer, vividness, contrast resistance in critical situations, precision af, parasitic control. Cons: In tele is f5.6, exceptional optical performance except at 105mm, however very good, hood not supplied as standard. Opinion: I realized I was wrong to sell it used. I bought it back. Very good to zoom in to my fixed lenses, and not disfigure. rnIt is never wrong the fireworks.rnSolo that does not seem to be a mistreated, the plastics are precise and accurate, but an optics L or art is visibly more reinforced, to the detriment of weight. But if used with care, it should not have signs of failure, at least I do not think so. Without speaking about technical specifications, the returned photos are of excellent quality and transmit clarity. sent on January 29, 2018 |
