Equipment Type: Lens
Equipment Brand: Nikon
Equipment Model: 135mm f2.8 with buid-in hood
Price (S$): 250
Description:
The lens delivers equally wow images at wide open. The built in hood is very useful as some stray light may get into glass of lens even when not shooting directly at the sun. Despite being a telephoto lens, its only about the length of the 18-70 with a 52mm diameter. Can be easily kept in your pocket. On a cropped digital body, it gives a 216mm F2.8, definitely value for money as both a sports tele lens, and a portrait lens.
Performance
It's a great lens.
It's sharp at all apertures in all points of the image.
Its light falloff goes away by f/5.6.
Recommendations
The 135mm f/2.8 is a great lens.
Since most people prefer the convenience of a big, heavy, expensive zoom these lenses are plentiful used today.
Personally I prefer the field of view of an 85mm when it comes to fixed lenses thus I don't own one of these, but let's face it: it's the cheapest way to get f/2.8 in a fixed lens this side of the 180mm or an 80-200 zoom.
This is a great lens and therefore has no flaws to write about. If you want one, buy one. They are all over the place second hand or brand new.
I find that they are more suited to fixed use in a studio. An 80-200 f/2.8 zoom is my preference for use out in the field.
