 Written on July 2, 2008 Summary: Great Lens This lens is amazing! I purchased this lens to use for my daughter's vollyball pictures and I couldn't be happier... Written on June 21, 2008 Summary: Worth it! This is a light weight, fast focusing lens with excellent image quality. Open the aperture wide and get beautifully blurred backgrounds. Definately worth the price. Written on June 17, 2008 Summary: Best Buy! Yes, you want this lens, (or the "L"-glass version, if your wallet can afford the $1700 plus cost-this "non-L" version is around $350) even if you have something that covers this range. This is some finely crafted glass, and a best buy in terms of cost-to-benefit ratio. You get speed, DOF control, beautiful bokeh, and it's darn cheap to get into the whole world of protraiture, if you think about it. You want this for portraits. Everybody and everything from your dog to the Queen of E looks silkier, more soulful and more loveable with this lens. It's perfect on a Canon 5D. People say that it's not the equipment-it's the photographer. But, in this case, it really is the equipment. You can do natural-light photography under difficult and trying conditions, and you've got plenty of room to spare in the ISO, aperture and shutter speeds, because this lens is so fast and responsive. The lens is light and portable so you can take it everywhere. Once you "get" the feel of the fixed focal distance you just intuitively snap pics of the sweetest sweetness. Seriously, my friends think I'm a good photographer. Between you and I it's just that this lens rocks! Written on June 7, 2008 Summary: Incredible quality at this price point I recently got to shoot an evening with the Canon 85mm F1.2L and was simply blown away by the quality of the pictures. After seriously considering the $1300 premium for the Canon 85mm F1.2L, I decided to get the 85mm F1.8. I was pleasantly surprised. The sharpness and color is just stunning. The lens focuses very quickly. The bokeh on portraits is more than acceptable. The build quality appears to be sturdy. I didn't see any serious chromatic aberration or vignetting in my images. I shot some comparable portraits with the Tamron 17-50 and the Canon 70-200 F.4L (non-IS) and I felt that the 85mm F1.8 gave me the best pictures, though I love the versatility and the quality of those two lenses. This one is certainly a keeper. Even after I save up enough to get the F1.2L, this lens will continue to be in my bag and probably be actively used in many indoor events. Written on May 24, 2008 Summary: Great value, highly recommended This is an excellent lens for shooting portraits. Very sharp even in the corners. Reasonably fast focus. I think f1.8 provides all the versatility most photographers would need. If anything, I find the depth of field at f1.8 so shallow that it is useful only rarely. I don't see the point of f1.2. Usually I need more depth of field to get someone's head in focus unless I am some distance away. For just 20% of the cost of the f1.2 L series 85mm, this lens is a great value. |
