Pros: Nitidezza su tutta l' escursione focale, colori e bokeh

Cons: messa a fuoco a 1,9m e un pò lenta per gli standard attuali

Opinion: Comperato ad un prezzo da affare, lo possiedo ormai da 5 anni convivendo col terrore che si rompa e non possa più aggiustarlo. Ottica che se non altro per la sua distanza di messa a fuoco lunga e per il limite di f 2,8 che in alcuni ritratti è troppo chiuso, sostituirebbe tutta la linea medio-tele del mio corredo. Autofocus, leggermente lento ed un pò più rumoroso degli USM , non sbaglia un colpo.La resa dell' incarnato dei soggetti è uguale a quella delle migliori lenti per ritratto di casa Canon. Sono tentato di comperane un altro per eventualmente ovviare per i pezzi di ricambio.

Pros: Superb lens, in film even better, with digital less because of scarce machines certainly not for the lens. Professional optics.

Cons: The way no one was conceived. In my view, this is not the way to go. Not tropicalized, but then maybe it wasn't used..

Opinion: I have been using it for years and I always find it satisfying. Engine not ultrasonic, but fast and precise. Metal and glass. Price on the market for a 2.8 is worth them all. Heavy but unfortunately this is the pledge for a focal with this opening. Beautiful colors, neutral. A little noisy, at least mine, but it's always been like this from the beginning. At the current price it must be taken. Super sharpness at every focal and opening.

Pros: The result of the photo is beautiful. Sharpness and overall quality are really good. It's a great product.

Cons: A little weighted if you carry it around for a few hours, on the other hand it gives beautiful results.

Opinion: I have been keeping this view for about twenty years, a great companion of travel. I bought it in lire, used it. He took excellent photos, always. I pray that it does not break. The equipment of the fastening ring on an easel is appreciable. This lens has always had positive comments from numerous photographers from all over the world ... they're not wrong.

Pros: sharpness to 2.8 superbi.Costruzione tonal passages from "real" red line, all metal pieno.Non is white!

Cons: weight but it is the construction guarantee top

Opinion: wonderful goal, crisp already 2.8.Nero and with red line! all metal, but it is beautiful as it weighs performante.Ideale for portraits where he does not regret a fixed focal hand, amop. A fortune today find a copy in good condition, if the opportunity arose not lasciatevela sfuggire.Io I was very lucky, finding it in sublime condition, with its original box, hood and short .... "shopping", even if these conditions are paid ...

Pros: Beautiful colors, the blur is excellent, very sturdy (no plastic).

Cons: the weight falls within its category, given the robustness. If I wanted to get more used to buy a 70-200 2.8 is 2.

Opinion: I bought some a week ago, obviously used and until now I have not had any negative note. Given the cost paid € .450,00 I think I did a good spesa.rnSe had available more money I would buy a different type one mentioned in the cons. rna part of the economic discourse (quality / price), is a lens that is giving me a lot of satisfaction. I hope as soon as possible to post some pictures.

Pros: great clarity even at room temperature, excellent color and contrast, good control of chromatic aberrations, nuanced very soft, solid structure

Cons: considerable weight, not sealed, with no stabilizer, lack of spare parts in case of repairs

Opinion: I find this lens a great companion of fun! RnLe its qualities are valuable for both portrait where she gives wonderful colors, contrast and nuanced both in sport.rnDa note that I did not want to list in the "against" the lack of ring-type USM autofocus mechanism. This is because I do not miss or the ability to focus manually while it is active AF (which I do not, however, NEVER on other USM lenses where it would be possible), nor can I say that I miss the speed of response in the sports arena as part of this tele (I could compare, for example with the 17-40L I use more often, and that is a flash). rnInsomma, the care taken in the construction of this lens can be seen in its solidity as well as in its operating speed ... despite his age. rnSe you find a good specimen to 500-600 Euro fatevelo not escape!
