Pros:Brightness, good bokeh, price, minimum footprint.
Cons:plastic body
Opinion:Lens purchased together with my first SLR now quite a few years ago, it managed to give me a lot of satisfaction in spite of the kit lens. It manages in its small way to shoot something interesting, cute its bokeh and good its brightness, it is easily found at a low price recommended to those who have few pretensions.
Opinion: good lens from the point of view of yield, at f1.8 it is not very sharp but already at f2.2 it improves significantly Constructively it is really poor, plastic bayonet ring focus almost unusable AF to "frullino" but efficient. Overall a lens to have very versatile at a good price.
Pros:Cheap and quality. 50th used, money really well spent.
Cons:I'm too satisfied to find any. I have seen, however, that for the same shooting parameters the 50mm f1.4 is "much brighter".
Opinion:Bright and cheap optics, it is a must for those who want to make portraits. Compared to the yongnuo, the image is more detailed, from what I have seen from online photos, which means for example that in a portrait you can also catch imperfections of the skin that the yongnuo would not take, so I do not know if it is good or bad. For those who have canon could as in my case could evaluate the yongnuo, in my case I paid the used canon as the yongnuo, I considered it more commercial even to resell and so I took that. For those who may be a fan of the new gear, the yongnuo for Canon costs less than half a new one and is definitely an attractive alternative.
Opinion:For years it was glued to my 450d, until she was sold and he didn't, despite having even his heir STM... The AF engine is a rusty tractor forgotten in the countryside under the weather, built with the same plastic as disposable glasses, if the shake reminds me of the soggy from when I was small, the manual focus is ergonomically embarrassing, after f 2.2 the five-sided blur is lurking, but it also has flaws! In my opinion, its performance is even better than that of the STM grandson, as far as detailing from f2 up and making color. I'm never going to sell it. Also because it's worthless!
Opinion:It 'probably one of those lenses that anyone approaches photography sooner or later must necessarily buy, but it will become interesting and useful even when you are more experienced (at least for me) .rnThe construction is certainly not the best but remember that the price is around 100 € or little more.rnSurely not my favorite lens is not by chance the use infrequently, but for some sporadic portrait I would say that it is more than enough because the sharpness from 2.8 up is really good and the bokeh ... very pleasant ... rnNon very precise maf, sometimes a little slow and cumbersome, however, the quality-price ratio justifies the success of this lens over the years.rnNon I got to try the new STM version but I suppose it is better especially as regards the maf.
