These 3rd party lenses are making it harder and harder to stay with Canon.

Thank you for your review! I know you wouldn't dissapoint as a real user review. None of the other reviewers compared it to the Viltrox 75 1.2 on APS C, which is what I'm trying to look for. This lens is indeed a perfect lens even for APS C at that price and size!

[FriscaDyahPitaloka]

hey Arthur, big fan of your contents.

But I have request: can you please test every lens with your sony apsc camera too? like, even if it's full frame lens, at least let us know how would they perform in apsc camera. As you know, you started as apsc user and most of your viewers must be apsc user too (like me). Much appreciated.

That's exactly what just did. Bought the a7 ii as my first FF and this lens. Love the bokeh

[MarkGibbons]

Just picked one up using your affilliate link. I'm blown away by the images from a lens thats just slightly over $200AUD. Crazy!

Would you recommend or prefer this over a Meike AF 85mm F1.8?

[karlisgertmanis]

compact cheap very good value. you can figure out if you like this focal length and buy more expensive if you so desire. or go up to 85mm. anyway - cheapest thing you can get to try something like this out see how you like it.

This lens looks like a very good option for under $200. Of course it's not perfect but it's good that it's auto focus and doesn't seem to suffer from any serious optical issues (other than the flaring which you mentioned can be a problem, but for a $200 lens that's not bad). I had their 7.5mm APSC Fisheye lens which I wasn't entirely thrilled about but I could see trying out this one (although I already own an 85 1.8 lens for my camera so I probably wouldn't be in a rush to buy this one).

I wonder how the photo looks like on crop sensor.

[michaelreis]

Dang got mine from amazon. Shipping was slow too.

all primes should be cheap lol much less glass and of limited use

5:09 And that’s why, kids, apsc is never a better option 😂
