Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM Lens Review

The Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is relatively inexpensive, but delivers very good image quality.

The Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is pretty sharp wide open, but in reality seems to f/2.8.

Wide open, vignetting, also visible on a 1.6 FOVCF body. Full frame body users will see some residual vignetting at f/2.

Open the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM Lens Aperture wide and see the background to blur away. The bokeh (background blur quality) – by an 8-sheet helped aperture – is very beautiful. Of course, with a relatively narrow portrait photo at f/1.8 makes keeping both eyes in focus difficult.

Contrast and saturation are very good.

Use of ring-type USM (ultrasonic motor) focuses the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM quickly and quietly.

Build quality of the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is quite good with a metal mount. The size is small, the weight is light. The Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is a lens you can use to get great pictures and a few glances.

The Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is often associated with the Canon EF 100mm f/2.0 USM These two lenses are almost identical compared with each other in most aspects. I propose, with the focal length as a distinguishing feature between them.

A program in the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM Lens excels is in the interior and shooting in low light. The 85mm focal length and wide aperture make the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM for a large church or phase lens. With its wide aperture and fast focusing is working the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM also for indoor sports.

This focal length is very good for portraits, and the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is a good portrait lens – excellence in the head and the head shoulders portrait if based on a 1.3 x or 1.6 FOVCF body mounts. The wide f/1.8 aperture is a dreamy OOF (Out of Focus) to create background blur.

I found myself with the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM very receipt of the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM. Although stopping 1 1 3 slower, I found the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM is much more versatile.

The end result is that the Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM is simply a very nice lens at a reasonable price.
