Brief evaluation and introduction of the full range of Canon lenses-detailed introduction to the Canon lens book (III)

1. Try a wide aperture
EF 50mm f/1.8 II

Market reference price: ￥700
A: Some imaging performance is remarkable.
S: normal workmanship

C: Many people are very disdainat EF 50mm f/1.8 II, but many people who use 50/1. 8II are very satisfied with its performance and price. Do not look like a mirror, or compete for a face with it. Instead, use the film it shot to speak.

2. header Backbone

EF 50mm f/1.4 USM


Market reference price: ￥2560

A: Good Imaging

S: It takes some effort to make good use of it.

C: If the header of a database does not work well, it is time to die. Compared with EF 50mm f/1.8 II, EF 50mm f/1.4 USM has good focus, good color balance, and good focal outside imaging. It is ideal for portraits on APS-C frames.

3. Good price and good reputation

EF 85mm f/1.8 USM



Market reference price: ￥2760

A: excellent imaging

S: slightly longer focal length

C: EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is a very good non-L lens, the price is also EF 85mm f/1.2L ii usm 1/5, think carefully is definitely a very good choice. In the APS-C is more suitable for shooting close-up and chest portrait, the use of a little narrow, of course, acting as a small focal or suitable.

4. Macro and portrait

EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM



Market reference price: ￥3120

A: Macro and portrait

S: Working Distance

C: "EF-S version of hundreds of Micro", the magnification of, imaging and mechanical performance are good, shooting portraits are also OK. However, the F/2.8 aperture is not very large, and the focus is not fast. At a rate of 1x, the front-end of the lens is only about 9cm away from the object (working distance). It is difficult to photograph insects and may block the light. APS-C painting especially want to micro portrait both can be on this, or it is recommended to hundreds of micro.

(3) standard change + Ultra Wide Angle

After playing for a while, there may be photographers who are very interested in the ultra-wide angle. APS has only one choice to match the ultra-wide angle:

EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM



Market reference price: ￥5040

A: APS has the widest picture angle.

S: There are too many deputy factories competing

C: has already said, the only choice of the main factory, and all aspects are very good so a shot, 10mm is really enough in the APS-C width a broad. However, there are four or five similar products in the secondary factory, which are cheaper and the performance is really good. The consistent advice for hitting a needle is to see which one is pleasing to the eye.

3. 3

It is easier to write this topic here. First, you can pick and piece out a three-shot combination of "Change-set-change" from the ones mentioned above, and the hit needle will no longer be noble. Second, after talking about the dual-lens combination, in principle, we can not limit the number. Although here we are talking about the three-camera combination, the photographer who bought the three lenses will certainly not mind buying the fourth one. Finally, cheap footage is about to be said, so you can enjoy anti-virus!


(1) F/4 aperture level

1. Small Sanyuan/petty asset sentiment

EF 17-40mm f/4l USM

EF 24-105mm f/4l is USM

EF 70-200mm f/4l is USM

Market reference price: ￥5120 + 6280 + 8580

A: This combination can be said to have both sides and faces. It is really the first choice for Chinese capital (it has nothing to do with foreign capital, here it refers to middle-class and petty capital ).

S: EF 17-40mm f/4L USM and EF 24-105mm f/4L is usm are always uncomfortable

C: They are all red and small generate of f/4. performance is not worth mentioning. Most Suitable for full frame body, of course, medium and high grade APS-C body are applicable. This set of "Small three yuan" Performance balance, practical and convenient, kind heart, and wherever you go, you can say, "brother, I can't afford to play more, it's just that the f/2.8 brothers are too tired to live ~! @ # $ % ^ &*".


Zoom "Small three yuan" is one of the masterpiece of Canon three lens combination, on this basis can be adjusted as appropriate, for example:


2. Little Sanyuan

EF 17-40mm f/4L USM

EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

EF 70-200mm f/4L USM

Market reference price: ￥5120 + 6280 + 5020

C: EF 70-200mm f/4L USM replace EF 70-200mm f/4L is usm is indeed economical, of course there IS no IS not only anti-shake, there is also a gap in imaging and workmanship, and it is suitable for comrades who are not particularly caught in the long Jiao.


3. Well-off

EF 17-40mm f/4L USM

EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM

Market reference price: ￥5120 + 2560 + 8580

C: As mentioned above, the overlap of focal segments of EF 17-40mm f/4L USM and EF 24-105mm f/4L is usm is always uncomfortable, in fact, the gap between EF 17-40mm f/4L USM and EF 70-200mm f/4L is usm is 30mm blank blocks, which have no significant impact on blank blocks, the addition of an EF 50mm f/1.4 USM immediately increased the aperture. This saves a lot of votes, and the basic quality is not too low. EF 24-105mm f/4L is usm has a strong versatility in the full range, and has a smaller role in the non-full range, EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is a standard portrait lens in an incomplete image. Therefore, it is very important to replace petty capital with well-off style in APS.

(2) f/2.8 aperture level

1. Fire of big Sanyuan/burning

EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM


EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM


EF 70-200mm f/2.8L II IS USM




Market reference price: ￥10680 + 9860 + 16600

A: f/2.8 × 3, "L" × 3. Congratulations!

C: expensive.

Carrying these three lenses, even if they hold a mid-range body, others will also drop their mouths onto their feet. I just don't need to show this with the comrades of XX Society and the cross-cutting newspaper. They all use it. The so-called big money cannot beat public funds.

EF 16-35mm f/2.8L ii usm and EF 70-200mm f/2.8L ii is usm are both Stage II products with excellent performance. EF 70-200mm f/2.8L ii is usm's nickname has been upgraded from the first generation of "Love dead white" to "love dead white rabbit. However, EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM has not been upgraded, and many people are hesitant to upgrade it. No way. Please cherish your eyes.

Another question is whether to love the white rabbit or the White Rabbit, because saving is not just a star or a half. Performance imaging must be a mess of the dead rabbit, but after all, it is very bad. In fact, this choice is not difficult, as long as you look at the pockets have many drums to decide.


If you are not so fascinated by f/2.8, this top-level configuration can be changed in three ways: 1. Replace EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 do is usm with EF 70-200mm f/2.8L ii is usm; the second is to discard the expensive EF 16-35/2 .8L USM and choose EF 17-40/4 l usm, Which is cheap and cost-effective; third, replace the heavy EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM with the portable EF 24-105mm f/4L is usm.

2. Red with green

EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM

EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM

EF 70-300/4. 5-5.6 DO IS USM



Market reference price: ￥10680 + 9860 + 9840

A: lightweight, 300mm focal length

S: aperture and imaging are common

C: EF 70-300/4. 5-5.6 do is usm do is an eye-catching thing. The three-layer diffraction optical element indeed shortens the lens size, and nothing else will be done. Originally, do is the star of tomorrow's optics, but now it seems that this lens IS somewhat experimental, imaging and performance IS not much better than EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 is usm, still not as good as the Red Circle lens, but selling the Red Circle lens price. If you like it, you can try it. Other photographers can try it.

3. High quality and low price

EF 17-40/4 L USM

EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM

EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM


Market reference price: ￥5120 + 9860 + 9080

A: The price advantage is too obvious.

S: normal full-width corner

C: EF 17-40/4 l usm is only half the price of EF 16-35mm f/2.8L ii usm! Small first-level aperture is not a serious problem for wide-angle lenses. However, EF 17-40/4 l usm does not have good imaging of the most marginal part of the entire body, and has lost two other f/2.8 bosses in APS-C. You may consider using the EOS 7D body.

(3) Remote firepower

EF 17-40mm f/4L USM

EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM

EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM



Market reference price: ￥5120 + 6280 + 11800

A: It reaches the superfocal length.

S: The Performance of the old IS lens IS slightly poor.

This configuration allows you to take a photo of a hippo near the distance, and play a Yunque in the distance. "Big white" EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L is usm's 400mm focal length IS already the most Canon zoom, but this header IS 1998 out, IS performance IS not good, the pull and zoom operations are also somewhat different today, with average mechanical performance. If you only need an occasional 400mm focal length, you can also find a 2x contrast mirror for the White Rabbit.


Canon's current online zoom lens is almost the same, some people may think of EF 24-85mm f/3.5-5.6 USM, EF 28-90mm f/4-5.6 USM, Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II. USM, EF 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6 USM, Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 iii usm, Canon EF 90-300mm f/4.5-5.6, etc. model. Please, how many years have Chen zhima had fallen behind. If you select these images, it is better to select the non-full lens of the secondary factory. They are all designed for the digital body.

4. Random focus

As mentioned above, the Focus segment is neat. Although fixed focus is also involved, it is still dominated by zoom. Next, we start to play the fixed focal point one by one. Each fixed focal point can be the only option. if the subject is clear, there is little replacement between focal points. Therefore, we mainly choose the camera through the subject matter here.


There is another question about the Canon fixed focus lens: Each focal segment has two high and low lenses, or even three lenses for choice. The problem is not big. Let's stay at the end.
