  • The perfect astrophotography lens
Style: Canon
For anyone interested in astrophotography or milky way night photography, you dont need to go any further if you already have a DSLR!!! This lens, with its 135mm zoom will yield sharp results and with its f/2.0 will collect so much light that will aluminate many of night sky targets. I liked everything about this lens, it is on the heavy side though, just in case you prefer light gear when you are in the field. I should also mention that focus is manual, which is really no issue whatsoever. All in all, fantastic lens!!! ... show more

  • happy lens! happy lens!
Style: Canon
A solid lens that can help create *beautiful* photos. It takes some concentration and effort to manually focus at f2, but I think it's worth it. I can't overstate how impressed I am with the level of detail that is captured within the focused area. The blurred part of the image is exquisitely smooth.This lens takes a tiny bit more work (it's kinda heavy, focusing requires effort, it's large) but it's a nice investment IMHO. edit: I spent many hours trying to find a suitable traveling case for this lens. I took a gamble on the Ruggard 6 x 3.5" case Ruggard Lens Case 6.0 x 3.5" (Black) and it fits! (including the lens hood) I have Canon mount, some of the other brands of mounts a cm or two longer on this lens, so the case may or may not fit non-Canon mount lenses. ... show more

highly recommended by several people for astrophotography and I add myself to that list. Sharp, fast, and suitable for use as a telescope with online adapters.

  • my go-to lens EVERY time for flowers; fantastic lens *IF* you're comfortable with *Manual Mode* my go-to lens EVERY time for flowers; fantastic lens *IF* you're comfortable with *Manual Mode*
Style: Canon
There is no auto-anything with this lens. But if you're comfortable with manual settings, then absolutely buy this lens. I'm not a professional photographer by any means, but I did take an online course to learn about the manual settings. You *must* use this lens on the M setting of a Canon camera. This is my only lens that is not loyal to the Canon brand, but since the Canon option is $2,000, I decided to try this one for $450 back in April 2021. It's absolutely the best camera decision that I've made! It's now April 2024 and the lens is up to $550, but still a great value considering the alternatives. I use it almost exclusively for flower photography, and it's absolutely my favorite lens. Hands down, it's my go-to EVERY time for flowers. For a full three years now. So, when I upgraded last week from a Canon Rebel T6 DSLR to a Canon R50 (mirror-less), my biggest concern was whether this lens would still work. I bought the "Canon Mount Adapter EF - EOS R, Compatible with EOS RP, EOS R, EOS R6, EOS R5" (the nicer one with the control ring) and Canon assured me that my other Canon lenses would still work fine, without any issues. And the adapter DID work immediately with my other lenses. But not with this one, my favorite. Everything worked except the shutter button would not release to actually capture the photo. I was heart-broken. It took some research, but thankfully someone answered my Amazon Q&A and explained that you must change the camera setting to turn on “release shutter w/o lens”. (FYI, This setting is only available in manual mode.) That fixed it immediately! Other than manual mode only, the other drawback is that it's a heavy lens. I think that's to be expected though. On my Canon Rebel T6 DSLR, it wasn't as big of a deal. On my new Canon R50 mirrorless, it's really lens heavy since the camera body is smaller and lighter. But it still does a fantastic job. All of these photos are un-edited, original files straight from my camera. The two daffodil photos, the lilac buds, the three crocus photos, and the last two orchid photos are with my new R50 mirrorless camera. The others are with my T6 DSLR camera. ... show more

  • Excellent optics. Perfect for wide field astrophotography Excellent optics. Perfect for wide field astrophotography
Style: Canon
I use this for DSO astrophotography and it does not disappoint. It is basically a very wide field APO telescope with flattener once you get the right adapters and mount. Wide open at f2 there is some distortion, but one only needs to stop it down one click to f2.4 to eliminate it. Spacing is very important on this lens and even .1mm change can cause distortion on stars. It took me some time to get it right, and the photos I show as example are prior to perfecting the spacing so you can see some distortion in stars. It is also a somewhat heavy lens, and can show some tilt from the bayonet on the camera not being perfectly secured. Because of this I recommend a special adapter from First Light Optics that allows you to replace the mating hardware with a t2 mount. I don't recommend an EF to t2 adapter as the bayonets on these are not perfect and can introduce tilt. ... show more

For astrophotography, coma isn’t the greatest for smaller stars around the edges however, when using software to eliminate this, everything turns out nice. Great for wider FoV for the price.

  • Super Sharp Stars for Astrophotography
Style: Canon
I bought this for wide-field astrophotography after seeing nice astro images taken by a couple of others using this lens. I was hopeful that mine would show sharp stars on the edges even wide open at f/2. So I spent a night shooting stars with it and have to say I'm impressed. Even at f/2 there is virtually no evidence of coma even in the corners. I did notice pronounced vignetting at f/2, which is common at fast f-stops. But when I stopped down to f/2.8 the vignetting was much improved. I'm really happy about the coma-free performance of this lens. Not sure if all units are equally good or if there is some unit-to-unit variation, but my copy is outstanding. ... show more
