Meike 85mm f1.8 Large Aperture Full Frame Auto Focus Telephoto Lens for Canon EOS EF Mount Digital SLR Camera Compatible with APS C Bodies Such as 1D 5D3 5D4 6D 7D 70D 550D 80D

Este lente lo compré por accidente y a las carreras! Buscaba un gran angular y terminé con lo contrario! En realidad no me funcionó para lo que yo lo necesitaba, pero es un buen lente, luminoso, pero solo tienes que saber que no es para espacios reducidos. Es para planear bien, y usarlo si realmente lo necesitas. El producto es bueno, y cumple con lo que ofrece.

Very good optics and colour rendering makes for exceptional value at an affordable price

Captures so much light. Been using it for indoor sports photography and have been loving it

Good quality considering the price gets the job done but auto focusing could be slightly better to get precise focus

I bought this lens for my crop sensor Canon DSLR. Since it's a crop sensor camera, this 85mm lens equates to about a 135mm lens. I have a 50mm f1.8 lens which equates to about an 80mm lens, so I bought this one for something a bit longer. I didn't want to spend a lot on it since I won't use it that much, but it would be nice to have in the kit with such a low f-stop when needed. For the money, literally hundreds less than name brand 85mm lenses, this lens is a keeper. I have a couple minor complaints, but then again, I wasn't expecting it to be perfect for the price, and it worked out better that I ever expected. All the attached photos were taken the day I got the lens. They were all shot between about 11pm and 11:30pm, at ISO 400 or 1600, f1.8, handheld, between 1/25 and 1/125 of a second. First off, this lens does not have image stabilization. So, since it acts like a mid-range telephoto lens, shooting skill or use of a mono or tripod may be needed at slower shutter speeds to minimize blur. Second, the autofocus is loud. Not real loud, but definitely more noisy than any Canon or Sigma lens I own. Noticeably louder. If using this lens shooting a wedding, it would be heard, unlike my Canon or Sigma lenses. Third, at f1.8, with high contract objects, like light bulbs against a night sky, or tree leaves against a bright sky, there is noticeable purple fringing. At f2.0, it's barely perceptible, and at f2.8 and above, it's gone. This purple fringing is not uncommon for many lenses when they are used wide open. It is also very fixable in photo editing programs. Most have a "de-fringe" kind of setting that when checked, removed it. All the light bulbs in the attached photos had some purple fringing, but my software removed it with just the click of a checkbox in the program. The images are a bit soft wide open at f1.8 (not a bad thing actually), noticeably improved at f2.0, and at f2.8, I'd rate it excellent for sharpness. At f4.0 to f11, the photos are stunning. A bit of chromatic aberration starts to be noticeable if you look for it, but it won't jump out at you. At f16 and f22, it is more notable, but again, it's not that uncommon for many lenses at those really small apertures. I didn't include any daytime shots, because if you like the night shots I uploaded at f1.8, you're going to love your photos in daylight. The lens seems solidly built. It is a plastic lens rather than metal, so it's not one you would want to treat poorly, but the mount is a metal ring and connects solidly. I don't know what the longevity will be. At this price, some corners obviously need to be cut. Time will tell, and I'll update if there is something new to report. I have no idea how photos from this lens would look on a full frame sensor camera, but on my crop sensor, they're better and more than I was expecting for the price. For me, it's a worthwhile addition to my kit at this price, for the occasional times I need this focal length.
