Pros: Size of 18-55!!! , price, focal excursion, sharpness for a whole do, up to about 115mm is f/5.6 , for example the ef-m 18-150 to 60mm is already f/6.3.
Cons: Faulty examples? The first 24 to 45mm was outrageous ... then replaced by amazon and this is top !
Opinion: I have a canon eos m50 and I needed a handyman for when we go to the zoo with the baby, holidays etc... and here I am, I use it with the canon adapter and it goes that's a wonder. Well meanwhile it's small to be a 18-200, quite silent even in the videos, I do not know how canon face to make them completely silent (e.g. 18-135 nano usm), I replaced just the usm to have more mm. Well the sharpness is good for an all do and I am satisfied for the outputs I have written before and it is very constant. The stabilizer is very effective, at 200mm I snapped at 1/25 freehand , however compared to the 18-135 usm as times we are there, but the canon had in the crosshairs just the still preview motionless... sigma no, but I don't care. I went to the zoo and overseas just with that. It's as big as an 18-55, it comes up to 200mm, paraluce included in the 330 degrees, well good sigma. at 18mm: definitely that good, identical to sigma 17-50 both to f/5.6 up to 24mm: ditto as at 18mm from 28 to 50mm : less good than at 18-24mm as sharpness but still ok "50 to 80mm" : good "80 to 135mm" : It's back to being definitely more than good at 200mm: and here the wonder... even sharper than at 135mm!!! Its center and edges consistency is really good, just close the diaphragm and the edges improve in an instant, for example I sold after 1 hour the 17-70 sigma C f/2.8-4 , at the edges not even at f/11 improved (then in the tests watched they said expressly that strangely the edges did not improve by closing the diaphragm to all the focal points, but if I saw them first with cabbage that I took it, but x luck I made the Amazonian return ). Overall it is promoted with flying colors, too bad the first specimen arrived me with problems especially at 35mm where the image was almost blurry, made rider and they replaced me the lens before I sent back the old x compare them at my request , top! Obviously an all-rounder should not be compared with the fixed, in fact I have 3 but I do not even compare them... but I had the 18-150 ef-m (native then x m50) and I didn't like it at all, vs the 18-200 that I now lose 3-0 as image quality. Instead the 18-135 is usm canon I exchanged it with this only x have extra mm, as IQ I think are on par and the canon is super mega hyper silent in the autofocus, the sigma ne noisy and silent, stands in the middle :) but it has a whopping 65mm and at the zoo and overseas they made me very comfortable! Ducis in fundo... before taking this 18-200 I had also rated the 18-300 always sigma C , but seeing the tests was definitely inferior to this so have mm but x be less than mediocre even no, I realized that they can not be perfect the handyman, so the 18-300 and 18-400 I would let them go (definitely better a smaller sensor and excellent optics example rx10 m3-4 or fz1000 II) , but the 18-135 and 18-200 are a godsend in those exits where you want to bring a lens only, in the outside is their world... x the interior and evening x luck invented the fixed lights :) |
