ownership: | I have experience with this lens |
compared to: | 18-70mm DT kit lens. 50mm f1.7 |
price paid: | missing |
positive: | Good balance on 5D. Very sharp even wide open. New focus ring very usable. |
negative: | Hard to find. Is it too good for 6mp? |
comment: | This lens is always on my 5D. My kit lens stays in the bag most of the time since I bought this. Interior shots can be taken in almost all situations with the fast f2 and AS. The big rubber grip makes this easier to manual focus than my old 50mm. Can't wait to try this on a full frame sensor as the 1.5x crop factor is only minor niggle. Highly recommended if you can find one. |
