I will review the Sony 85mm F1.8, and do a comparison between the two to explain why. However, I would not recommend buying this unless you really need a macro lens. The 90mm Macro having autofocus makes it a more versatile lens for day to day shooting as well.

There are other macro options on the market, but they are all manual focus lens. One thing to watch out for is the focus motor makes loud whiny noise when in AF-C. However, macro often requires stepping down the lens to get enough depth of field anyway, so this is not an issue.The focus speed is acceptable, and using the focal limiter helps on it as well.

While the Sony 90mm macro lens is an FE lens for FF cameras it also works on APS-C A6000 cameras but with an AOV of 18 degrees not the 27 degrees of the lens on full frame.

I am a bit surprised at the soft corner at f/2.8, as this is often mentioned as one of the sharpest lens on Sony E mount. Again in regard to VOL's full frame camera the CMC-1 & 2 are great C/U lenses for sub-FF cameras like the Sony A6000 line but not for full frame cameras. It offers great image quality, and is really sharp in the center. The push/pull focusing ring is an interesting design that is practical as well.

The build quality is great, and the size/weight is reasonable to bring around. In fact, it is what I use to shoot most of the product shots on the website. Its focal length provides a good working distance for shooting macro and products. The 90mm macro is an excellent lens, and should be considered if you are interested to shoot macro photography. At f/5.6 is very good, but f/8 has more textures on the building walls. If you ruin your camera and/or lens trying it, remember I told you multiple times not to do it so don’t come crying to me.The corner is a soft at f/2.8, and improves as the aperture is stepped down.

So I’d do that.Īnyway, that’s my terrible idea on how to (not) fix this error when the lens internals have been knocked off-kilter. I suppose there’s *just* a chance that it will work good as new, and only have taken you 15 minutes from beginning to end, but it’s much easier to pay someone more than the cost of the lens itself to do it for you. Obviously, this is way in void of any warranty you ever had, but of course you won’t have done this, so it’s all quite moot.Ĥ) If you were to screw everything back together and put it back onto the camera, you will no doubt discover it’s still totally broken, and will probably catch fire or something. The internals of the lens can be moved, and the central assembly can be gently unseated and guided back into place all the way around so it’s nice and level. You see the little ribbon cable attaching the silver ring to the circuit board? If that comes out it’s goodbye lens, so really oughtn’t you leave this to the professionals?ģ) Once the black screws are out, you’re really hosed. It exposes the lens’s “guts”, plus 4 black screws.

Do not remove them, making sure to put them in a bowl or other container so you can keep track of them.Ģ) Removing the silver ring held on by those 4 screws is also a bad idea. You see those four silver screws? Leave them alone. Do NOT do the following:ġ) Take the lens off. In this case, you have to take it to a certified repairman to fix it for you, or buy a new one. If I looked carefully, I noticed that the inner mechanism (the bit that comes out when you power up the camera) was uneven, sticking out a tiny bit on one side. OK, I had this problem after dropping my 16/50 kit lens as well.
