We decided to drop this lens on a concrete floor to see how bad it would break. We knew it would break, but we never thought we would get a cool soft focus lens with in camera iris control to boot.

  • Just don't drop your lens

  • love the end

  • First I thought it was only 2 dumb asses, then the other 2 reveled themselves.

  • Yeah... Any lens dropped from just 5 feet will break. It may not be in two pieces but either the elements will misallign or auto focus will miss. Duh.

  • loser style.

    

  • My friend got this one because it was cheap, and after just a few days got it broken. It didn't really fell that bad and it broke as well. And guess what? He ordered another one!

  • @dudekaus I think a f1.2 will be better

  • I broke mine the same way, it pops back together with a bit of patience, works fine. the image quality is what you are paying for, not the build, it's sharper and brighter than lenses 18 times the price. check my Flickr, I shoot with it the most. flickr. com / photos /israel 09/ (close the gaps)

  • So, you can accidentally drop the cheapo, but not the expenso, ah? why don't you give the cheapo the same care as the expenso, shithead-oes!...what's the point of this video anyway....that plastic breaks?...duh..

  • So a lens is based solely on its ability to survive a drop? Wow I've been judging them IQ, how wrong :p
