EF/EF-S 420-800mm F8.3 Telephoto Zoom Lens(MF) + T-Mount for Canon EOS Rebel T8i/T7i/T7/T6i/T5/T3i/T2i/XSi/SL3/SL2/T100/90D/80D/70D/50D/5D Mark IV/6D II/7D II/1D X III II - Manual DSLR Cameras Lenses

As a grad student, I am on a very tight budget, but I still really enjoy bird watching and wildlife photography. The solution? This lens! No, you aren't going to take any award-winning shots with it and yes it *is* much more difficult to master as it's totally Manual, but it still takes some good pictures! Everyone says you can't take pictures of wildlife with a manual lens, but I've been doing it for over a year and you can, yes, even action shots if you've got the patience to put in the practice. I got this as an 'upgrade' to my 500mm manual lens and I love it. While I do wish you could focus and *not* have to lock the zoom into the place for speeds-sake, it's hardly less than I could ask for for the price. These pics were all taken with this lens. The gator and the whistling ducks were about 30 yards away, the Harris's Hawk and thrasher about 15 yards, and the Little Blue Heron 50 yards.

Surprisingly good. Albeit, you will have to allow time to adjust settings (ISO & shutter) for your scenario. A tripod is necessary. Be ready to spend some time in a photo editor. Once the adapter ring is attached to the lens the provided rear lens cap no longer fits. Be sure to have an extra rear lens cap handy if you don’t want to detach the adapter ring every time you change lens’s. If you use a quick disconnect plate on your camera, get an extra one that can stay attached to this lens I was amazed how smooth the focus ring moved. It allows for precise movements to focus your scene. An external HD monitor >7” attached to the camera was a game changer assisting with focus. The motion of zooming in and out allows for dust and debris to collect within the lens. But it’s fairly easy to take apart and clean out. Overall, for a lens of that magnification under $50 is decent for me because I have the time to clean up the images in Lightroom.

This lens was better than I expected and much better than a couple of lenses I sent back. I got pretty good pictures even at full zoom. You have to tweak the settings on the camera for best results. My camera has a zoom feature that lets you focus on an expanded part of the picture for great focus results. I shot with a Cannon T6i using a tripod and external shutter release. I played around with the manual settings on the camera to get the best results. Picture 1 was a bird about 80 feet away at 420mm. Picture 2 was a flower about 25 feet away at 420mm. Picture 3 is some trees on a mountain 2.2 miles away at 800mm. Picture 4 is a sign abut 400 feet away at 800mm. It actually zooms a little farther than a 42x cannon that I own. I am very happy with the lens and results.

This lens is HARD to use. The manual focus has a very small range of actually being “in focus” no wiggle room at all. The picture quality is alright, i’ve noticed the lighting gets worse the farther you zoom in. For the price though, and what it gives me, I love it. 90% cheaper than any other lens and gives you a couple good photos if you have a subject that stays relatively still, and you are within a decent distance.

Not impressed, the zoom is fine but the angle is so narrow it’s hard to find what you’re trying to shoot and it leaves a round shadow around all of the pictures. We took this on our trip to Alaska, once in a lifetime opportunities missed.

One the package seemed like it was open before. Two it wasnt delivered the day it was supposed, it wasn't even shipped by the delivery date Three when you put on the lens it's fine, fit good and shows the live image good, but after clicking to take the picture, there's black shade that's add out of nowhere. The last image shows the black shade. The image before that is the live view. Not sure what can cause that. I'm guessing, whoever sent out the product just picked out a returned item, not checking to see if it was faulty. I was definitely excited to use the lens, and I'll keep the lens because it still good for the price. Just wish the company was not sending out returned or damaged item just because they didn't have good ones in stock

I purchased this for my canon Eos 2000d. Fits great. Excellent build quality. Image quality is also excellent. It’s heavy which is literally the only downside BUT I am still able to hold it free hand for photos and also works well on a tripod!! Purchased to take pics of the moon originally but it has worked well for other photos like for birds. Thanks!!

For the price this seems to be an ok lens. The zoom is really great and if you were using this lens for any photography that doesn't require shooting a moving target (like birds) it is probably a good pick for you. This manual focus is not optimal for birding... the focus ring on the lens is a tight turn so you cannot focus quickly enough to get a snap before the bird is gone. I think this is a good, inexpensive lens for someone just testing the waters at photographing still life things.

Für den Preis überzeugend

This is a good lens for the price. Good fun to play with, but probably not for serious photography. Before buying, be aware that it must be used with the camera in manual mode, as there is no electronic contact between the lens and camera. The build quality is surprisingly good for the price, and it comes with a soft case. However, once the adapter is fitted for your camera mount you will need a rear lens cap (not provided). The image quality is fair for the price, but dramatically improved in daylight with the use of a cpl filter. As is expected, the lens is basically impossible to keep still handheld, particularly at 800mm. However, used with a sturdy tripod reasonably sharp images can be obtained. I also attempted to shoot video, and although using a sturdy tripod on a basically windless day, the video was jumping around due to movement of the lens. I would only use this lens for video at 800mm if shooting from indoors (through a window). Overall I would say that this lens is good value for anyone wanting to try some ultra long lens photography without paying thousands of dollars for a brand lens. Good fun, but I wouldn't be expecting win any wildlife photography competitions with it.

Satisfaite

Inizialmente volevo mettere meno stelle per la consegna perché, nonostante avessi inserito l’indirizzo corretto, per tre giorni il pacco è stato portato a circa 8 km da casa mia e il servizio clienti Amazon non riusciva a risolvere il problema. La situazione si è sbloccata solo quando ho detto che non avrei più rinnovato l’abbonamento. Alla fine però ho deciso comunque di lasciare cinque stelle, perché il venditore non ha alcuna responsabilità e l’articolo merita. Fatta questa premessa, il prodotto è di buona fattura: è bello pesante, completamente in metallo, e dà una buona sensazione di solidità. È praticamente obbligatorio usarlo con un treppiede, ma per essere un obiettivo low cost vale davvero la pena. Volevo avvicinarmi alla fotografia naturalistica e astronomica senza spendere un capitale, quindi ho scelto questo obiettivo. All’inizio ero molto scettico, poi ho fatto una prova dalla finestra di casa puntando un’auto sul monte di fronte, utilizzando le focali da 420 mm e 800 mm. Visto il risultato ottenuto in modalità automatica, la sera stessa ho deciso di provare a fotografare la luna piena in modalità manuale… e il risultato mi ha davvero sorpreso. Stra consigliato.

いまいちです。 F値が固定になってしまい、変更できず、ISOを上げましたが、画像がいまいち。
