Pros: Weight, draft
Cons: Cost, draft
Opinion: I had the opportunity to test this specialized lens during a Canon event on the island of Cona. What can I say, certainly a fine lens, certainly interesting and certainly of quality. One of the things that surprised me the most was the weight. When the Canon representative took it from the table to give it to me, he did the "scene" simulating a huge weight; Once received, it was immediately evident that he carries a featherweight considering the optics in question. Speaking of autofocus and stabilizer, nothing to report, it is perfectly in line with expectations (mounted on R3). I have put the draft both as "for" and as "against" because in fact it represents its main peculiarity but, at the same time, in my humble opinion, its most enormous limit. Finding such an object in your hand, you would expect to shoot distant, very distant animals. In fact it is so, but we must never forget that the more distant the subject, the greater the layer of air to be filtered. So, if used in the brightest and "hottest" hours of the day, you will collide with the thermal ascent which necessarily creates turbulence, making the photos unappreciable. If used instead during the hours of light change, therefore sunrises and sunsets, you will collide with the F8 which, again in my humble opinion, generates too dirty shots with any modern equipment. If we shoot at 25-50 thousand ISO and then pulp the photos with Denoise, then maybe something is wrong. I'm honest, in my little experience I wouldn't know where to relegate (very ugly term) this lens. perhaps in Serie A stadiums, with strong lighting and distant shooting points where you may want to generate a half-bust and a close-up, or at the racetrack. This does not detract from the fact that, as a lover of canvases, I would not mind having it at home anyway. PS: I would really like to know if the people who have expressed a vote have done it exclusively on the skin or with a real experience of use, Mah! |
