p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · New guy with camera


New guy here. I have a Canon T5i and for my first prime lens had a nifty 50. Since its now gone (stolen) how would the 40mm pancake lens stack up against it? I do mostly wide field astrophotography with this camera and just general family/hobby type images.

Thanks

Here's a quick comparison of the two. The nifty fifty looks sharper at 2.8 in the center but gets worse towards the edges. 40mm is wider of course which may counter the center sharpness.

40mm vs. 50mm

Thanks. Just the sort of thing I was looking for.
