How to choose Canon 50f 1.2 and 85f 1.2?

These two shots are good shots of portraits, both are fixed focus, both are large apertures of 1.2, one is shark's fin and the other is bear's paw. It's really hard to say who is superior and who is inferior.

Needless to say, the imaging quality, red circle is fixed, there is nothing to say; Like the aperture, there is a lot of choice; If there is any difference, the focal length of 85 is longer, and it is slightly better than 50 in background blur. No wonder some people call the 85 fixed-focus lens the king of portraits.

What is the difficulty of choosing?

It depends on the occasion you use and the space left for you. If there is enough space, choose 85 fixed focus, if the shooting space and distance are limited, choose 50 fixed focus.

In terms of price, it is also evenly matched. At present, the price of 50f 1.2 is a little over 7000, and the price of 85f 1.2 is around 7500. Go back and measure the size of the website, and you can make a decision.

If you think it makes sense, please pay attention to Shooting Zhang Guanglin.

20 19 Canon 50mmF 1.2 has a micro-single version. At present, the best combination is Canon EOS R with Canon micro-single 50mmF 1.2, which is used to shoot sugar water tablets or static portraits.

Canon 50mmF 1.2 is the first choice for professional children's photography. Of course, if the family is shooting their own children, Canon 50mmF 1.8STM is the first choice, because it is light.

Of course, you may be asking about the lens of Canon SLR. So for Canon SLR, which of the two F 1.2, 50 and 85 is better?

Let me analyze it in detail:

First, 85mmF 1.2 is not as practical as 85mmF 1.4.

Both Canon's 85mmF 1.4 and Sigma's 85mmF 1.4 should be more popular than Canon's 85mmF 1.2 now.

For Canon 85mmF 1.2, the background blur is not as big as F 1.4. But it increases the difficulty of autofocus, hmm.

The capture ability of 85mmF 1.2 is not so good. Basically, you can only pose.

Second, if you want a stronger blur effect, you can buy a Sigma 105mmF 1.4 or Canon 135mmF2.0 or even 200mmF2.0. Even, in fact, the focal length ratio of 70-200mmF2.8 135mm is good.

Maybe 135mmF2.0 will be more to your taste if it is only for stronger blurring effect.

Of course, Sigma recently launched 105mmF 1.4, which is also a good new choice.

Third, if you are a beautiful woman shooting sugar water tablets, in fact, the focal length of 50mm is not enough.

50mmF 1.2 to be exact, this lens is suitable for taking busts of beautiful women.

50mmF 1.2, the most advantageous is actually children's photography. Many professional or professional children use 50mmF 1.2 for photography.

If it is professional syrup photography, contract photography and beauty photography, it is obvious that 85mm is more commonly used and practical than 50 mm

To sum up, if you major in portrait photography, I recommend you to buy 50mmF 1.2. If you focus on beauty photography, I recommend you to buy 85mmF 1.4.

Of course, if you are going to buy the second or third portrait lens, you can also consider Sigma 105mmF 1.4 or Canon135mm F2.0.

These two shots are actually not difficult to choose. Although both 50/ 1.2 and 85/ 1.2 are red circles, there may be problems in the design of 85/ 1.2. The focus is slow and the sharpness is not as good as 85/ 1.4, which is unbearable. More than 10 thousand lenses were lost to three times cheaper than him. Therefore, the comparison between 50/ 1.2 and 85/ 1.4 is the most reasonable. Outdoor portrait, 85/ 1.4 is the best, indoor portrait, 50/ 1.2 or 35/ 1.4 is the most cost-effective choice.

Select 85mm/f 1.4, and the aperture 1.2 is slow to focus.

More than 50 shots in the shed and more than 85 shots outdoors.

I don't know why I entered 85 1.2 without hesitation. It's really heavy. The only thing I'm not satisfied with is the slow autofocus. However, relying entirely on autofocus is not necessarily a good thing. Generally speaking, this kind of lens has high requirements for users and is difficult to control.

In addition, I personally disagree with my friends who are opposed to using the maximum aperture. Since it exists, it makes sense, doesn't it?

The photo was taken with it, please refer to it!

In fact, there is no need to entangle!

I recommend you to buy 50 1.8stm and 85 1.8. If you take more photos in private houses, you can buy 40 more 2.8stm.

It adds up to about 3500 yuan!

They are all too expensive. 50 1.8 and 135 2 will save you half the money. You are welcome to take them.

50 1.0, of course. What's the difference between the same aperture with different focal lengths and the old 50 1.0?

These two shots don't conflict, and they can both be included.
