Pros: great lens macro.ottimo value for price, very crisp Nothing to envy more expensive lenses.

Cons: Some diaphragm more.

Opinion: Bought on ebay auction as used without doubt is the middle ground between my Nikon 35mm 1.8 G and my Samyang 85mm 1.4 .The find it very versatile and coupled with a 2X kenko no doubt you can do a little more. £ 86 well spent! if there was even the diaphragm as 2 or 1.8 would eccezzionale.in Anyway my vote is 9.I a Nikon D5300 and d3100 and in both cases are satisfied.

Pros: Lightweight, comfortable, crisp

Cons: uncomfortable lens cap to be inserted with a lens inserted.

Opinion: I recently purchased this lens, suggested by a person of the Forum. Amazing! I'm very happy for two reasons: it is a convenient 50cc to keep in your bag and you may need to take good macro. Certainly it will not be the top macro but his work does it well! Difficult to find in used. I was lucky enough to find one in good condition, like new. I recommend it to all who are looking for a 50cc valid, robust and macro. In my gallery there are three examples of macro snapped in flowers after the rain. If you want, let us jump. Hello to all.

Pros: lightweight construction, sharpness, "only 50mm."

Cons: shorter focal length macro for "Serious", autofocus slow.

Opinion: It 's an optical suited to those who often makes macro freehand, because of the extreme lightness and short throw. Enables faster shutter speeds longer 'lens of a 100 and a' good portability 'and lightness. E 'shown in the output in which a macro is not' the need 'absolute and you can' use as canvases for portrait and landscape views (on APSC). But if 'the macro and' understood as activities 'primary tripod and very small insects, then it's not' recommended, a better 90-100.

Pros: Excellent definition and sharpness. Affordable price (it is used very easily affordable).

Cons: Autofocus very slow and not too bright for a 50mm.

Opinion: I 've bought to venture, initially, in both macro and portraits. For the first use is very short in focal and does not allow to get too close to subjects such as insects, in that its barrel extends. The short throw is also be very present in the macro background than subjects. The clarity and definition are at the top and, personally, I 've found very good for portraits with APSC. Perhaps the 'unique advantage over his brother 1:4 is the reduced distance of focus that would allow creative solutions different from' using a standard 50. I consider it an excellent lens only that the slowness of 'autofocus and its brightness is not too much I do not make it a must-have item in the camera kit.
