The 20/2.8, 28/1.8 and 100/2 will also be reviewed soon. two EOS tests coming next week ... - Rover - 01-30-2012 [quote name='Klaus' timestamp='1327937052' post='15314'] Yes, the 70-200/4L (on FF) is a deep dark gap for instance.

And of course the superteles <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> two EOS tests coming next week ... - Rover - 02-02-2012 I guess there's little point in testing big superteles, we all know they're going to be fantastic - well, for the price that's not unexpected, innit? Though I can likely predict the results of 20, 28 and 100: the 100 "solid", the 20 and 28 "iffy" to "disastrous". Of course there are the old cheap 24/2.8 and 28/2.8 - and Markus tested the equivalents on his side of the fence - but they're too old and not likely to be used on FF anyways. Ditto 135 SF. Not sure about the CM. Oh, and one more overlooked lens is the 28-135 IS. It's still in production so does it have a chance? two EOS tests coming next week ... - Guest - 02-02-2012 [quote name='Rover' timestamp='1328175279' post='15398'] Of course there are the old cheap 24/2.8 and 28/2.8 - and Markus tested the equivalents on his side of the fence - but they're too old and not likely to be used on FF anyways.

They are still being sold and potentially quite good value for money compared with the alternatives - if the tests confirm it, of course. One of the benefits of full frame IMHO is having access to these wide angle primes that just don't exist in APS-C land. |
