it's better to spend a little bit more and get what you want and feeling good with yourself - than be a ultra-cheap bastard don't you think? depends on what you need & want.. :D
@Pomykalsdj20 sorry, this was actuallythe virst video from digitalrevcom that I've ever watched. And this was just my initial reaction. Since watching this video 4 days ago, I saw that a few others had the same thought. Sorry for sounding like a broken record.
@TheDJVAQ Ha, yeah I decided to buy an X100, which took any available lens buying cash for the time being... For the EOS I mostly just use the cheap, but very good EF50 f1.8. Cheap, junkie feeling build quality, but excellent results. Quite sharp, with nice bokeh wide open, and no CA.
@intelixcn He's got a "Hong Kong" accent if I'm not mistaken, which is a mix of British English and Cantonese. Typically that sort of mouth movement you see comes from a person that speaks multiple languages speaking in their "weaker" language.
before trying this lens .. I must say that I liked the specs.. but as soon as I tried it .. I saw it was too soft... :( shame .. really loved all the specs bout this lens .. the 28mm .. the USM .. the 1.8 aperture .. almost perfect ..
if any people thinks they can use this lens for "crop sensor 50mm 1.8" think twice. cause the price diffrence you pay instead of 50mm 1.8 and little more could upgrade your camera to full frame camera. and this lens is quite soft wide open. it won't create better image than plasticky 50mm 1.8 on full frame.
@joeyisfunny the 50 has more glass and you lose a little bit of light every time it pass through glass. In example, highend filmmakers measure lenses in T-stops because it is more accurate to the amount of light than f-stops and it's important to keep the same brightness from scene to scene.
Good! Thanks for reviewing this lens, I'm thinking in getting the 28 and 85 1.8 and 50 1.4 to have a "yellow ring" (USM) lineup, and being an enthusiast I really don't need the 1.4 / 1.2 L lineup...
It's a pity it has no Image stabilizer for filming... I'd like to see a lens with image stabilization with a big aperture for low light to use in my EOS 550D because my sigma F1.4..
BTW latest (or maybe next build) Magic Lantern firmware for EOS now allows to select 1/25 exposure in movie mode that gives a bit better low light performance ;)
Not the best video, but I can attest that the 28 1.8 is a great lens. Pretty soft wide open, but usable at f2 and sharpens nicely once stopped down. Great value for the price.
I feel like putting models in videos is detracting almost everyone's focus on photography or the purpose of the video itself. More tutorials and in-depth reviews NOT showing women in skirts and destroying camera gear.
