Pros: Incredible sharpness, character, bokeh, feeling, made light points very very beautiful. For portraits it is exceptional

Cons: Limited brightness precisely for the apodized element. Optically it is a 2.8 (depth of field, ect..) but the light on the sensor reaches 5.6 so inside I recommend a flash

Opinion: I have waited several months of use to talk about it in a complete way. The first thing that pops up outside the box is the construction/feeling. I had not yet had a Gmaster, but I can now confirm what is good about their construction: solid, light (to be a medium canvas with a lot of glass), it balances very well with the machine, programmable keys, declick function for diaphragms, diaphragms on the ect. lens. In a top word for construction. But what do you buy for, what is its added value? The bokeh. Bokeh is just the characteristic element, it remains legible, it is very creamy but not distracting, difficult to define in words, which I would recommend to give us a try. Thanks to the bokeh I connect to the rendering of the light points (ball even in the corners), it is not obvious to be able to find the light points of the right size to create that particular effect, but when you understand the situation to create them, it is really fun. The downside, in my opinion the only one, is the limited brightness! If you take photos indoors the flash in my opinion becomes almost mandatory, outside towards late afternoon just raise the ISOs slightly or if you want to photograph static subjects (e.g. evening cityscape) then the stabilizer comes to your aid. For what I use it: landscape (excellent sharpness), portrait (yield and character), food (I didn't need a real macro, he manages to get to a good magnification ratio 1:4). I only advise against it if you are allergic to flash inside :) in that case it is better to point to very bright targets

Pros: Scary sharpness, excellent construction, complete in every feature, autofocus

Cons: Unfortunately, we start at T5.6

Opinion: This lens represents an amazing experience, it has incredible sharpness, an exceptional bokeh, it focuses very closely, with an achromatic doublet can make excellent macros. Amazing in portraits and superlative for flowers. Excellent mechanics, it also has the declick on diaphragms that can also be piloted manually. Distance limiter for autofocus, in short there is just everything, even the felpede lampshade! The only downside is the maximum opening which, for the type of elements used, is quite limiting especially when there is little light. For the rest, super in every way!

Pros: Stratospheric resolution, always, everywhere. Blurred inimitable, colors and contrasts very natural. Possibility of light macro

Cons: As a result of the apodized element, although an 2.8 is optically, it appears to have a maximum T of 5.6 limiting on many occasions

Opinion: I bought this lens almost for Sfizio, having already a 85 1.8 and a 135 1.8. I was curious to try the smooth trans focus effect. I was absolutely amaliato from this lens, built impeccably, with Shag Hood, declickable aperture ring and fire ring perfect for feeling. The 100 STF in reality is a totally different optics from large luminous fixed. Its design allows you to always read the background. and "Pialla" the light points, which often in portraits annoy distracting the spectator from the subject. The sharpness is extraordinary on A7RIII, and even the tones of the incarnate have something more than any other fixed I've ever tried. Zeiss included. Unlike many other STF solutions This is autofocus, and it also works pretty well allowing you to pick up kids in running or biking. A third ring allows to set the focus distance between neighboring or relatively distant subjects up to infinity. I mean. It allows a bit of macro that marries perfectly in Flora's photography. Where the silky and uniform background, without dazzling light points or "balloons" from a very soft aura to the images. I guess I'm never going to sell this lens. Only real limit, as mentioned above, is that at the brightness level is a 5.6. So it needs light to be able to use it at non-stellar ISO. To have a moment idea what is capable this lens I invite you to watch this shot at full resolution: https://danieledimiccoli.prodibi.com/a/d8yzj72750v9y6/i/olg20d0qdk46kv
