(This review has been prepared with Focus Numérique, a French photo news website) Owning a 50mm lens is probably a must for any photographer. These primes are ideal for many good reasons. Mounted on a full-frame body, they provide a neutral field of view. Not a wide-angle, and not yet a telephoto lens, it is said to be close to human vision. On wide sensors, a 50mm lens can be the perfect companion for many different activities, including reportage, portraits, or even landscapes. Mounted on an APS-C sensor, they become a short 75mm telephoto that is highly suitable for portraits. |
