Pros: Almost ridiculous cost in the second-hand market, optical quality, great focal range on FF, light, solid, AF

Cons: Too soft at TA, barrel a bit dancing (but you get used to it)

Opinion: Bought used for less than 40 euros turned out to be an amazing target. Not very usable at TA due to its excessive softness, as soon as it is closed by 1 or better still 2 stops it becomes a high-end lens. Excellent sharpness and excellent colour rendering. As other users have pointed out, it gets a little too soft after 75mm, but in the 28-80 focal range on FF it's perfect. It weighs the right amount (not too much, not too little) indicating a remarkable build quality for the price range at which it was proposed. The barrel dances a little, but you get used to it. Quiet and accurate AF motor even when using third-party adapter on the EOS RP. Same optical scheme as the USM II version, if you find the one with the wording "MACRO" instead of the flower symbol you are dealing with a more "valuable" version because, as for the USM II version, it has the diaphragm upgraded to 7 blades instead of 5 and, in contrast to the USM II version (produced almost exclusively in Taiwan) still produced in Japan (better quality control). Magnificent all-rounder and definitely a steal at the price you can find in the second-hand market. On APS-C I wouldn't recommend it for the angles of view returned due to the crop factor and perhaps for reduced resolving power when paired with a high-density MP-dense small format sensor.

Pros: Lightness, extreme compactness, good construction, exceptional focal coverage, excellent optical performance in relation to the price (of the used, of course).

Cons: Yield at the corners quite poor even at the most closed diaphragm.

Opinion: Purchased used for a soothing, and combined with the 20-35 f3.5/4.5 to be used on FF, it has replaced the 24-105 L IS worthily, if only for the weight and footprint irrelevant to the latter, thus extending to 20 mm the availability of focal points with an exceptional portability compared to the various 17-40, 16-35, 24-70 L series, as well as a cost that does not make you feel breathless in case of shocks or falls. With this combination I found the taste of always prune with me photographic equipment, a habit that I had now abandoned due to weights and dimensions. From the point of view of the showdown, after comparisons made against the 24-105 STM, I have noticed that it gives way compared to the latter on the short focal points, I would say up to 35, while otre definitely goes to balance the books, up to 105 mm where understanding who has the best is really very hard. The yield in the colors is decidedly different, very hot in the old man while, in comparison, the yield of the STM is "glacial", which I personally prefer. If I had to make the assessment in a number I would say 8.5.

Pros: Extreme lightness, sharpness on FF, important opening

Cons: lack of stabilization (I think not to overlap with 28-135)

Opinion: Small, light, bright, inexpensive in used, tourist all-rounder to pair with the wonderful sensor of the 6D mk1. The first lens I bought, designed for the film, before I even got the 30D, and then we talk about pretty much three lustres ago. Knowing the purpose, certainly not pro, never disappointed me. Suitable for outdoor photos to monuments, architectures (to be straightened obviously with Cameraraw, but at the cost of a loss of sharpness) and walks maybe in the woods, as per gallery (Campaign, in my profile), looking for details that need good behavior at high iso rather than many megapixels. Less recommended on APS-C, where it becomes a strange telezoom from an almost normal minimum to a maximum just over 160mm. Paired with macro rings, such as Kenko, it has an honest AF for the years it boasts. A fairly common goal, it costs less to buy it back than to look for any third-party assistance to regenerate it. Does he number in a lens collection? No, because sooner or later everyone who owns it wants to go out and use it. The Nikon 28-85 is more voluminous and short, with the same min max opening, but it is also a good alternative. Will it be the concept?

Pros: Construction, maf, colors and not least the weight.

Cons: For years he has none.

Opinion: Objective bought to use it with the canon 5D old, I use it every now and then, when I want to review the colors of the film, from a lot of satisfaction, warm colors and a fantastic definition to all the focal points, at least my specimen. You can compare it almost to an L series, the opening f3.5-4.5 becomes very useful in places not bright enough and even at the opening the shot is sharp enough, if found at a decent price I recommend even just to try a vintage lens. I'm certainly not going to sell it, i'm holding it tight. The only new lack of stabilizer, vote 10

Pros: Good construction, excellent sharpness up to short focal 70 / 80mm, used price.

Cons: slight loss of sharpness at focal lengths exceeding 80mm

Opinion: Good construction, excellent sharpness up to focal 80 then becomes a bit soft, I used it in the 5d Mk1 and gave me a lot of satisfaction excellent color quality no distortion and vignetting even at full aperture, a lens that in relation to the price of ' Today's used is definitely worth buying for both ff and aps, rating 9.3 in my opinion!
