Even if its optical performance isn't great, at $300 it's bound to sell like hot cakes...but might as well review it anyway, haha 🙂  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Martin Vronsky Posted November 8, 2021 Author Members Share Posted November 8, 2021 Quote In-depth review of the new Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM ultra wide prime lens for Canon EOS R series cameras. I talk about use cases, image quality, distortions, aberrations, autofocus speed and noise (or rather complete lack thereof!). I compare the corner quality of stars for astrophotography at different apertures and you can also inspect the images that I took for yourself by downloading RAWs and/or JPEGs that I took (see below) CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro and disclaimers 00:50 Build quality and features 01:45 Compatibility with clip-in filters 02:14 Image quality and distortions 06:14 Sharpness at different apertures 07:32 Close focusing and closeup sharpness 08:14 Astrophotography: speed and focus 09:41 Astrophotography: vignetting 10:28 Astrophotography: corner star quality 12:20 Astrophotography: recommendations 13:32 Vlogging and videography 15:10 Autofocus speed and noise (or lack thereof!) 16:30 Conclusion  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Martin Vronsky Posted March 2, 2023 Author Members Share Posted March 2, 2023 Quote When it was first announced, we were surprised by how small and affordable the Canon RF 16mm F2.8 STM was. Ever since, we've wanted to try one out and we finally had a chance! Canon's RF mount may boast plenty of fancy, expensive optics, but this might be one of the most exciting lenses in the system. 0:00 - Intro 0:34 - Sample images 1:06 - Design and functions 1:49 - Close-up performance 2:12 - Flare and sunstars 2:47 - Autofocus 3:14 - Breathing 3:46 - Bokeh 4:53 - LoCA 5:18 - Sharpness 5:45 - Should you buy one?  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
