Pros:lightweight, sharpness of blurred plane detachment and speed
Cons:to be picky the length
Opinion:hello guys I tell you something of the 600 is3 ,, a wonderful lens very sharp but above all destroys the backgrounds in a superlative way, its blurred is really super at full aperture remains very sharp and helps you blur the worst backgrounds .. I come from the 600 fl of nikon with d850 and I went to canon to be able to use the mirrorless with the adapted lenses and with this lens I did bingo the operating speed of the coupled with the r5 is stunning hooks and follows anything, the use with the tc is monstrous with the 2x is very fast obviously loses a thread of sharpness but goes very strong in speed and hooking. It gives me beautiful files rich in real detail and not artificial, think that I have never even tried it with canon SLRs the is3 series for me is a step ahead of all, on a practical level I do not think that the rf is so superior .. Another fantastic aspect is its weight, very light I take it where I want even in the mountains, the only negative aspect is a little bulky, perhaps the hood I would have liked a hair shorter.
Opinion:The following is merely a first contact, being centered on a single session of five hundred and thirty-six shots. The lens is relatively light, considering focal, diaphragm and optical scheme. It is possible to use freehand, although - compared for example to a prolonged wielding with a 300 2.8 - I felt the need to alternate the shooting position with that of pure comfort. As far as the stabilizer is concerned, the longest time in the absence of motion notoriously depends on individual abilities. Personally, and I think many will do better, I have fallen to 80th of a second, but with alternating results. The sharpness is excellent from the very first opening. The tonal contrast, on the other hand, is not at the same high level. It should be considered, however, that the environmental priority assessment was set on camera, which gave rise to a slight over-exposure trend, which certainly did not help to determine black funds. The bokeh is soft enough, but in some situations there remain signs of unwanted nervousness. As for the responsiveness of the autofocus engine I suspend the judgment: being the lens combined with a 5D Mark IV, it was certainly not in the condition of a close dialogue with the autofocus module: for that it would be needed to try a match with a 1D series.
Pros:Quality construction, lightness, excellent sharpness already starting from F/4, advanced stabilizer up to 5 stops!
Cons:The cost, but here we are on ultra professional levels.
Opinion:I was able to try it during one of the many days organized by Canon Italy around Italy, mounted on my Canon Eos 1D Mark IV without using any support such as tripod and monopod, but freehand activating the stabilizer. We were inside a room arranged for the occurrence and there was available a photo model to be photographed by the people present. Frankly I had not put into account to try this "monster" as they are not the conditions to prove it, we know very well what is his ideal "terrain", but the present Canon clerk gave me the imput to make some shots of the model (there was no other Choice) I I mounted on my 1d Mark IV and supporting it I leaned on my hand from the bracket, I activated the stabilizer, thinking that I could not do any sharp photos using it in those conditions, instead to my surprise the best portrait That I did in that context between the various optics that I tried I did with this new 600, I was four meters away from the model only regained the face but the sharpness, color, contrast and speed of AF I was really impressed. What about, a tele to be scary for its cost, but the professional who works with the photos I think it pays back to 100% of everything.
