I’ve only had this lens for 3 days, so I’ve not really had a chance to test it in the type of shoots I bought it for ( weddings and models ). However, I did go away to a football tournament this weekend with my son and tried to use it a few times ( mostly I was using the 50-140 but that is another story ). It’s certainly sharp, way sharper than the 24mm 1.4 Sigma art I tested a few weeks ago. A lot more accurate too. I’ve had a few misses at mid range, I suspect that’s because I’m not used to the focal length. I had this with the Sigma too, but alot more. Anyhow, here are a few shots, so far I love the lens and this focal length and I know its a lens I will keep and use a lot. It’s surprising to me how useful this focal length is. I also squeezed in a shot of Ellie as when I got home it turned out she’d had some awesome face paint done!
I’ve had a play with some close up shots, the minimum focus distance of this lens is crazy and lets you be quite creative with DOF. The bokeh is really nice on this lens in my opinion.
I’ll post more as and when I get time to take some shots. I think this lens will be attached fairly permanently to the camera for the next few weeks, its very versatile.
