canon_40Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM

Pros: Dimensions and weight first. Extreme sharpness. Minimum focus distance reduced. Color consistency.

Cons: Due to the size, inconvenient for manual focus. Vignette evident.

Opinion: Ultimately I think the slow walking final. Allows to grasp details also of reduced size and photograph without problems thanks to the distance of focus reduced. It's great for landscapes and thanks to its light weight allows you to use exposure times normally probitivi lenses with the same focal range but much more cumbersome. But I do not understand why they are around a lot of pictures of pictures taken with this lens, it seems to me very far from the ideal lens in that field.

fujifilm_x20Fujifilm Finepix X20

Pros: Control (almost) total that makes you (almost) forget to have in hand a compact. Construction of first-rate quality of the lens doubt. Excellent file quality.

Cons: Insufficient battery. Manual focus but this impractical. Really hard to read the data overlay in the viewer, every time it is a business. Finally, decidedly uncomfortable and impractical to switch on the lens, which prevents to keep the lens cap on when the camera is turned on. For some, it could be a compact little practice, not small and not very light.

Opinion: It is a compact certainly not without flaws, but you learn to live with it thanks to the great deal of control on the shoot and the final quality of the file that you do not regret leaving the camera at home. Ultimately, the budget is absolutely more than positivo.rnrnSommando pros and cons I would say that it is a subject unsuited to the traditional user of compact cameras, definitely not as willing to make compromises with the practicality, as ideal for the amateur photographer (and not) tastes already a bit 'more refined, so to speak, and from the claims of control and final quality of the highest level.

canon_200_f2-8Canon EF 200mm f/2.8 L II USM

Pros: Image quality of the highest level, portability interesting when compared with others in the same focal length set of Canon lenses and more. Typical construction quality L-series

Cons: It is dated perspective, thus lack stabilizer and polarization. A fixed 200 certainly does not shine for its versatility.

Opinion: Ultimately, this view is wonderful but you have to know exactly what you are bringing home. A camera with excellent management of the ISO would be recommended, because at 2.8 with exposure to 1/200 or 1/250 to be safe due to the lack of IS, it could happen to needing the occasional ISO 800-1000. However, nothing that any FF and also the best APS-C can not reggere.rnrnQuindi if the lack of versatility and does not disturb the reasoned approach is not a problem, this lens is a gem from the extraordinary optical quality and make happy any photographer. Guaranteed.

canon_6dCanon 6D

Pros: ISO management, weight and size, WIFI, FF.

Cons: With the weight and size limited, of course you have to give up some useful button. AF points are limited in number and too much power, and the station is only really reliable.

Opinion: Ultimately, the 6D is a FF in a body like the 60D, but more solid and without the swiveling display (which would make it too inviting for its price range). RnrnNon hate to see one day a 6D Mark II with display Adjustable AF point and maybe some more (even without going to millemila the 5D mark III), however, is absolutely waiting for a recommended purchase for those who want to get closer to FF.

sigma_12-24_v2Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 II DG HSM

Pros: The distortion is also contenutissima to 12mm. Good image quality in general. Construction of the pro level.

Cons: Difficult management of flare, you have to really be there constantly to the eye. Dim. Lack of sharpness in the corners at room temperature (improves closing of 2-3 stops, but not Excel).

Opinion: I fell in love quest'obbiettivo at the very moment in which I placed the eye on the viewfinder. After 5 minutes of shots convinced me to buy. After half a day of use I realized that I never take it off from the bag. The distortion contenutissima to 12mm, with this wide angle of view, which can not do with it innamorare.rnrnIn general small defects are manageable in part and in part negligible, and does not make this perspective less worthy of purchase. Perfect for landscapes and interesting for portraits constructed in a somewhat 'particular, in situations of good lighting.

canon_efs_18-135Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS

Pros: I can not see many pros. Let's say between 20-30mm and 80-90mm, allows you to take home photos acceptable to work in post.

Cons: Plasticone, from the feeling of being rather fragile. Rather cumbersome. Unclear, bad contrasts. AF so slow as to be frustrating.

Opinion: If Canon had been limited to make something like a 30-80mm f / 3.5-4.5, at 2/3 the weight, footprint and price ... certainly would not have been a spectacular lens but would serve better as a kit lens, helping especially the amateurs to beginners. The feeling is that Canon has made this lens design and assemble in the marketing department ...

canon_60dCanon 60D

Pros: Lightweight, adjustable display, including the APS-C has the best picture quality (like the 7D).

Cons: Lack of particular strengths, not really excel in anything if inserted into the broader context of Canon DSRL. The ISO makes "only" up to 1600, then begins to suffer dramatically. However, we can coexist peacefully.

Opinion: For the most part the 60D seems a bit 'cut off, whereas we tend to believe the FF immensely outweigh the 7D and the APS-C have, especially for sports and wildlife photos. Yet it has two big advantages that I think people tend to underestimate and (I do not understand how) sometimes even to demonize: lightweight and adjustable display are in all respects the true strength of 60D. Make it ideal in certain contexts, as in Street photography in which a machine's smallest and lightest definitely helps, and adjustable display can help disguise so as not to agitate the subject. The swiveling display is definitely very, very, very comfortable even in some aspects of nature photography (including macro), especially when you have time to prepare for a shot but it is better not to move too much, or just want to be comfortable. And it is also practical in the photography of every day, to a family party and so on. Ultimately, if you do not need the speed of the 7D, and want to save agood 50% on the price of the cheapest FF, the 60D is absolutely advisable.

canon_50_f1-4Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Pros: Small, lightweight, bright, beautiful colors, bokeh appreciable, autofocus pretty quickly (though not lightning) and accurate even in low light and in the absence of strong contrasts. I took it down the street a couple of nights and I was amazed to accuracy and reliability. Very good quality / price ratio.

Cons: Occasional problem of color fringing, lack of a decent lens hood (for now and I've tried quite a few "dancers"), low sharpness at full aperture. The AF has a hard time with the side steps (on 6D).

Opinion: It is in my view to have in your arsenal, both for FF APS-C. Although 85 to FF 1.8 is much more strongly. Optics really nice for portraits, especially on APS-C. Thanks to the low weight, it is phenomenal for a walk in the city and capture special moments. Especially at night, when the 1 .4 can help a lot to keep the ISO low and difficult situations still managed to make it to the fullest. In short, to have.

sigma_35_f1-4Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art

Pros: Excellent image quality. Solid and beautiful to look at (at least it looks a bit 'different from the usual targets). Bright colors and amazing sharpness even at full aperture. Bokeh enviable creamy.

Cons: The AF, albeit rarely, I have created problems in non-optimal lighting situations, handing photos without a sharp point. I happened to notice a slight color fringing in extreme situations, however, you have to just go and look. In high-contrast lighting situations (especially in backlighting) tend to digest very bad dense textures (such as branches and leaves of the trees) and create bad artifacts.

Opinion: I made the bet trying this new Sigma instead of throwing myself on the Series L and are partially satisfied. The AF fickle and artifacts that I spoke of earlier on occasion made me lose my temper, it is still difficult to think of to get rid of this lens because of the beautiful images that under control is able to return.
