Pros:Exceptional in the blurry at least my that's a 44-2
Cons:None, also because I love consistent lenses as weight.
Opinion:Optics supplied to my old Zenit and that I still have, my first reflex... Tried it on Canon 100d and it is OK. Wonderful even if you have to be very patient. One question to you. On the 5d-2 if I focus endlessly, the photo does it, but it seems to touch the mirror. Stay as stuck... If I put the focus back to the minimum it unlocks, and everything works. Does it happen to you too? No problems with all CANON A-PSC. I also have a revueflax 55 mm lens. 1.4 F very nice that weighs more than the Canon 17-40 but exceptional as well as you, and a Pentacon 135. My amazement at these lenses is that after years and years still, as soon as I shoot them, they flow perfectly so well as the diaphragms.
Cons:Weight (but seeing the materials there can also stand), unsharp, little sliding ring
Opinion:A good lens, excellent bokeh in any condition, very robust materials used (but that go to affect the weight of course). I bought this lens on subito.it at 15 euros, I am immediately in love, it is not the maximum but can be considered a valid alternative to 50 mm 1.8. It is now possible to find it really in any virtual used market and not at very low prices. At F2 the little sharpness is felt very much, especially when used in sunny days, without a nd filter or a lens hood, we can overcome this problem by slightly closing the diaphragm. The lens does not "give" photos, have to be sweaty, many photos will be shelled once exported, slightly moves (I notice only when I enlarge the image) or even you have very exposed areas. The focus ring is very hard, in fact I had to disassemble the lens and oil the internal mechanism. The first few moments is not a huge problem but after 3-4 hours of shooting the wrist starts to hurt (in addition to the neck). The weight is really excessive, not so much for the lens itself, but for the adapter (which must be purchased apart). A good metal adaptor gets to weigh about 150 grams, adding the 270 of the lens and the 700 grams (minimum) of the camera body becomes a bit of a hassle bringing this lens all day. Is it worth buying? Absolutely! Leaving its flaws, or you love or hate, is a lens to have in your photo kit for those days when you want to experiment a bit, also is a great "gym" for your own photographic technique, maybe for those who are in the beginning and do not want to spender and 130/150 euros in the Canon 50 mm can perfectly take this (and not the 50 mm yongnuo).
Pros:The beautiful lenses of once. Built like a brick, all heavy metal, MAF ring of the right hardness and beautiful hike, sharpness at closed diaphragms as well as modern lenses, peculiar and interesting bokeh
Cons:A bit ' soft at all open (but very useable), the characteristic bokeh can entice you to make photos hackneyed and ritrite
Opinion:That nice lens of a time. At the time the manual MAF was not a habit but the daily reality, and the lenses were made accordingly. The MAF ring is a pleasure to use. The rotation is of the right hardness and the excursion is wide (almost 3/4 turn), which guarantees maximum precision. The yield is a bit soft at all open, which is not necessarily bad, and by closing the diaphragm a bit the sharpness is like the modern lenses. The bokeh is perhaps the most characteristic of this lens, but it is also a potential enemy, because you are likely to end up doing the usual macro of flowers of which the web and Mankind Implor "enough". A nice brick made of iron, solid and relatively heavy. A pleasure even to hold in your hand. The use on Sony NEX-C3, the focus peaking with these lenses is almost a necessity.
Pros:Swirly bokeh feature, value for money, solid construction, TA clarity, MAF ring with a lot of travel that helps a lot to be precise
Cons:Maybe only the weight, but given the constructive quality ...
Opinion:Optics I use on Fuji with turbo lens adapter, fun to use especially at f2 because it makes a very special blur, besides it remains sharp. Thanks to the long stroke of the MAF ring, it can be really precise, mainly for busty portraits, so that you can take advantage of the beautiful circular bokeh that it creates. It is very advisable to see the price at which it is located.
Pros:Cost ... sharpness at max openings ... bokeh ... metal body (no plastic) durable and pleasant to the touch
Cons:Nobody saw the price .... maybe the ring a bit 'duretta (but for me it is good)
Opinion:Truly a beautiful lens .... makes excellent blurry and captures well both the nuances that bright colors with a soft bokeh. I think for the price I paid there is no better in the landscape for portraits and even for close-ups. Also good for landscapes. Used with the maximum aperture is fabulous! The council.
Opinion:I was surprised by this lens that I almost accidentally discovered in a drawer ... I used it mainly for Macro (having the iris ring) combining it ring inverter and economic extension tubes ... It is also excellent for portrait having an excellent and creamy bokeh. I read on the net that the optical design is a Russian copy of a Zeiss.
Pros:metal body, multicoating, bokeh, cost, sharpness at maximum aperture
Cons:backlit little resistance, need hood.
Opinion:great lens for portraits and street generally has all the flavor of the vintage despite being not so antica.rnil best compromise remains the Helios 44-3, features both multicoating (which are as specified, not sharply reduces flare ) that eight blades for the diaphragm ensures a breathtaking blur even at maggiorirnVoto openings 10 due to the value for exaggerated price. rnRisolvente also on modern digital sensors.
