Samyang AF 50mm f/1.4 FE II Lens Review | ePHOTOzine (3 + 1 pages)
Points forts :
- excellent piqué
- faibles aberrations chromatiques
- faible vignetage
- grande ouverture maximale
- protection contre les intempéries
- faible distorsion
- autofocus rapide et pratiquement silencieux
- prix raisonnable
- bokeh onctueux
- possibilité de bague de diaphragme silencieuse.
Point faible :
- "closure focusing would be useful."
(incompréhensible ; ce n'est pas une typo pour "closer" puisque le texte salue le fait que la distance minimale de mise au point est de 40 cm quand les autres 50 mm sont plutôt à 45 cm)Highly Recommended – An impressive performance from this fine, fast standard lens.
Samyang makes some great lenses, and the new 50mm f/1.4 FE II is an excellent example of that. It performs to an excellent high standard, it works smoothly, is weather-resistant and is reasonably priced. A 50mm lens is such a straightforward proposition and many photographers will always carry one, even those who are dedicated zoom users. In low light, it's a winner, and for a general view of the world as we see it unsurpassed. It is also good to see videography being catered for, with the option of a silent aperture control.
It is a lovely lens to use and is 'Highly Recommended'.
