Re: The 58mm F/1.4G Thread
Hi all,
I recently got the 58mm 1.4G and simply just love it! It\'s the perfect sibling in character of my 35mm 1.4G. And they both have a unique look.
My line-up now is 35/58/85 all 1.4Gs. However, I\'m considering to sell off the 85, and just roll with 35/58.
The 85 is a great lens, but I find it a bit more \"clinical\"/\"too perfect\" in rendering compared to the 35 and 58. Plus 58 and 85 are quite close in field of view, with the 58 being a bit more \"fleksible\" focal length.
I mainly shoot people (avid amateur, no paid work): My life, family, events, travel and some street. My main concern with selling the 85 is close-up portraits, where the 58 might introduce perspective distortion (\"big nose\"). On the other hand, I love the idea of a minimal two lens kit, where both lenses I truly love in character and focal length.
I would love to hear your thoughts/advice?
And an image to the thread from my 58. 😊
