Lightdow 85mm F1.8 Medium Telephoto Manual Focus Full Frame Portrait Lens Review

As a professional photographer, I have always been on a lookout for a versatile portrait lens that can capture stunning images. After browsing through several options, I decided to try the Lightdow 85mm F1.8 Medium Telephoto Manual Focus Full Frame Portrait Lens for my Canon EOS Rebel T8i, and I must say I was impressed with the results.

Lens Design:

The Lightdow 85mm F1.8 Medium Telephoto Manual Focus Lens is designed with 8 pieces of circular aperture, large focus rings, internal focusing (IF), hybrid aspherical lenses (H-ASP), and ultra-multi coating (UMC). This design makes it easy to achieve a smooth bokeh effect with great contrast for any portrait photographs.

Manual Focus Operation:

It is important to note that this lens requires complete manual focus operation on DSLR camera to align with lens body. It is not suitable for SLR beginners; it is recommended for photographers with excellent experience in equipment. The full manual focus operation allows for more precise focus on the subject, which is perfect for portrait photography.

Compatibility:

One of the best things about this lens is that it is compatible with a wide range of Canon EOS cameras such as Rebel T8i, T7i, T7, T6, T3i, T2i, 4000D, 2000D, 1300D, 850D, 800D, 600D, 550D, 90D, 80D, 77D, 70D, 50D, 6D, 5D, and more.

Warm Tips:

It is essential to know that this is a manual focus lens, and there are no electronic contacts. Your camera will not detect the lens when mounted, that's why it shows "NO LENS ATTACHED." Please switch to MF MODE in order to use this lens correctly.

Tips to use our Manual Lens:

1. Set the mode dial to Manual (M).

2. Set the Release w/o Lens option in the camera menu to Enable.

3. Set the Shutter lock option in the camera menu to Off: no lens.

Performance:

I was impressed with the performance of this lens. It has a large aperture with a pleasing bokeh quality to further enhance shallow depth of field images. The images captured with this lens are sharp and vibrant, and the color reproduction is excellent. The lens also does well in low light conditions, producing images with minimal noise.

Overall, the Lightdow 85mm F1.8 Medium Telephoto Manual Focus Full Frame Portrait Lens has received a 4.1 out of 5-star rating from 1129 customer reviews. The majority of customers have praised the lens for its sharpness, clarity, and ease of use. However, some customers have faced compatibility issues with their cameras.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the Lightdow 85mm F1.8 Medium Telephoto Manual Focus Full Frame Portrait Lens is an excellent lens for portrait photography. Its large aperture and manual focus operation provide more precise focus on the subject, allowing for stunning results. However, it is essential to make sure that your camera is compatible with the lens before purchasing.
