Is it balanced well on the rebel? Is it a good lens to use with the focal length?

[Frace91]

@Smalskin It feels very balanced in my opinionand makes a great long standard/portrait lens

on my 50mm 1.4 there is a chalk sounding noise as i manual focus. is this normal? is yours silent when manual focusing? thanks

[Frace91]

@blueeyevisualize mine doesn't sound like what i would call chalky

it's relatively silent

Hey buddy.. I got this lens after ur review but I found that the auto-focus in video mode is very bad to an extent that it does not auto focus at all... can u help me out?

[Frace91]

@Alstarmania Hello,

unfortunately i don't have a dslr with video function so i don't know anything about af in movies, the last thing i knew, is that you have to manually focus but that was at the release of the 5d mark 2, i haven't done much photography since then

autofocus is a thing of light reaching the af sensor

if it's a dark andvironment and/or the lens is stopped down it can happen that the light reaching the sensor is insufficient so the aperture set too small would be my guess

I don't know about calling him a newbie...he seems to know quite a lot about a bunch of lenses! : )

I do think he needs more computer monitors though. ; P

[acmoc]

the af is noisy for a usm isnt it

[dothisdothat321]

Good explanations... Thanks. I just did a series on 5D Filmmaking and the last clip was on the 50mm f1.4. Cheers.

Bull shit video

[elave16]

some cameras do not autofocus good in f1.4 or lower, try the autofocus in at least f2.8 an bigger

@Frace91 What does yours sound like? Mine is kinda like two smooth surfaces rubbing together as they move.
