Cons:should be used with the stand and a macro rail sled
Opinion:I took it years ago and I never regretted it, freehand up to 2x with twin flash I had few management problems, beyond the easel and above all a good micrometric sled (I use the Castell of Novoflex) you get very valid results.the only flaw that at 5x is practically 5 mm from the subject, m the twin mt24 manages to illuminate the subject adequately. Now I use it, with adapter rings, even on MQT and the results are impressive. For me it is worth 10 with praise.
Pros:A specialized lens of considerable value. It is the non plus ultra for a magnifying macrophotography photographer: for those who want to go beyond the 1:1 ratio. A product designed for those who are intrigued by micro-way and want to give this visibility and knowledge.
Cons:I don't find any flaws. The only limit is to be aware of the potential and to be so passionate that we want to measure and try to go beyond the first timid approach.
Opinion:I am an amateur macro photographer and I came to buy the same after a few various, and intermediate means to have the perfection I wanted. Trying to improve myself, I could only put no intention, and buy this goal. This solution opened me up to a new mindset of approach, due to quality and magnification ratio. I will no longer be able to get rid of this objective, and I thank Canon for bringing all her technological knowledge to the conception of the same. I am told that unlike other photographic disciplines where a lot is invested in the performance of the product to be offered to the photographer (more versatile fields) thanks to this goal, the manufacturer has spent his time getting a respectable lens into the hands of the macro photographer, given the niche and the field of use really for a few.
Opinion:Hello everyone, I'll write, as I'm considering buying the Canon MP-E 65mm target. I'm currently working with a 90mm Tamron macro and the tubesI'm reading a little bit of everything and I find people who highly recommend it and who instead say it's a beautiful lens but very very difficult to use and in the end you motivate yourself and stop using it. I don't want to take staking photos as I should over-equip myself. I have a low-quality micrometric sled and an ring fingerAccording to your opinion, with a little patience Can I take home some nice shots? I had also thought of a macro lens 180mmsarewould you be so kind to give me your precious opinion? Thank you
Cons:In my opinion, no one, if you use a lens like this you must be aware of the limits of the scope
Opinion:I use this lens for a long time and, unlike those who preceded me in the comments, I use it only freehand and on subjects in full activity, such as dragonflies and various insects, so the combination with the ring flash is mandatory, in my opinion.rnNon I have any problem of exposure using the Canon ring flash, while I confirm the limits due to diffraction to the more closed diaphragms.rnE 'a goal for true fans of macro photography, for many but not for all, however, can give enormous satisfaction. rnrnHere you can find some single shots - I do not use the technique of focus-stacking - made strictly by hand: rnrnhttps: //www.flickr.com/photos/henry62/albums/72157687903886030rnrn
Pros:Exceptional image quality and solid construction.
Cons:It should be used with knowledge of the cause for photos thought, since it is not easy, at least at the beginning, to be managed.
Opinion:I have this lens for some years and I find it superlative for enlargements over the 1: 1 ratio. Certainly it takes a solid tripod and a suitable light source, like an annular flash. Useful and sometimes essential the micrometric slide. Personally I photograph only inanimate subjects and therefore I do not have big difficulty focusing even if it takes a lot of attention and patience with every shot. I'm not good with the focus stacking but I do not think that for the photos I do is essential. I am content to say, given that with this lens at every shot I open fantastic and often unexpected scenarios. Who loves the macro push, of any kind and decides to allow himself time to capture the desired image, can not not own this masterpiece.
