Pros: Center sharpness, bokeh, colors, weight, price

Cons: Corner sharpness, CA

Opinion: Like an old school lens. It can be creatively used, little distortions, good mood in the pictures. Rather good for standing composition, autofocus is sometimes slow. Easy to use. Although not small, but light, good balance on the camera. The focus ring is pleasant, a little too light. Creamy bokeh, good 3d effect. Not perfect at all, but nice to my job for this price.

Pros: Light, sharp, unexpected overall performance

Cons: It could manifest "difficulties" in dialogue with the camera body

Opinion: I took it to replace the small zoom supplied in kit with the A7C, too dark for my needs to shoot mainly indoors. I had already owned several Samyangs in my previous Canon kit and I certainly regretted the extraordinary sharpness but certainly not the inconvenience of manual focusing, so in the search for an alternative to the small 28-60 I initially absentmindedly discarded this lens. Then driven by curiosity I went to read the features and when I found out it was an AF ... A whole new world opened up to me! Also enticed by the absolutely competitive price, I bought it in the blink of an eye. Mounted on the A7C, I started to put it to the whip in a variety of situations and was a bit perplexed when I started to see strange flashes of the AF indicators on the display. As is customary in these cases, turn off and on again... Quite disconsolate, I think I'll return it and mentally prepare myself to shell out about four times as much to "play it safe" by staying at Sony. But... After downloading the files to my PC, my jaw lowered and I couldn't close it anymore... A quality that is nothing short of crazy, a sharpness that yes I expected but not at these levels, an incredible color rendering! Other than giving it back, I'm holding it dear and tight! Let's add that it's nice and bulky but at the same time light, in short, I don't think I will take it off the car so easily!

Pros: Lightweight, good construction, great blur quality

Cons: Not much sharpness at the edges

Opinion: Well built lens even if a bit plastic. The dimensions are not very small but it is light. Very sharp in the center, less at the edges. At the wider apertures he suffers a bit of spherochromatism. The blur is very nice and the out-of-focus light points have almost no "onion" effect, as on much more expensive lenses. I really liked the idea of the ring that can also be used to adjust the diaphragm. I tested it by comparing it to the Sony 50mm f/2.5 "G" and the Sony 55mm f/1.8 "Zeiss" and, although in the end it is not what I preferred, it seemed to me a great lens (if anyone wants to see the images I used for the test, they can go to my site www.marcograssi.it).
