Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8 S DA DSM WL lens review

[@boredcat7]

Love the frequent uploads 🙏

[@muradx7]

The lens got a firmware update recently. It might be interesting to check, if there is any difference in quality

[@EricLouisYoung]

Firmware does not update glass.

[@opalyankaBG]

Thanks for the review. Looks like I'll keep using my Samyang 12mm f/2 that I bought 8 years ago.

[@EXkurogane]

Very strong purple and green color fringing at the corners. I noticed it almost immediately even on KZbin resolution and not watching it in full screen. This lens was on my radar since a nikon Z variant is coming, but now I'm not so sure. It'll work fine as a video lens though.

[@kw8936]

appreciate your time and effort, Thank you for doing what ya do.

[@explodingheavens]

fullframe coverage is insane, but so is distortion. If they would update their firmware to straighten corners and darkness for fullframe, it would be great fullframe lens.

[@stkuj]

Chris.. have you reviewed the Yongnuo 85 1.8 (upgraded version)? I think this might be a sleeper of a street lens...

[@jpblahblah]

They should really change Yongnuo's logo. It looks like a logo for a toy. The build kind of resembles sigma contemporary lenses which is pretty cool for an affordable lens.

[@guille_htgn]

You're 100000% right. The logo screams CHEAP. And not in terms of price only but also quality, and only one is true!

[@pabloalvaradolopez3941]

Not looking just like a logo for a toy, but also like a chinese 25cent dollar toy HAHA

[@Eskey4]

@@guille_htgn Well not really, its good for its price sure, but you can't really say its not cheap quality

[@Eskey4]

@@TigaWould Not really good optics here, that's the whole point, maybe it looks fine, but do you really care about how lens looks or what image it gives?

[@pabloalvaradolopez3941]

@@TigaWould whaaaaaat hold on bro, actually Viltrox, Tamron and Samyang make better lenses than Yongnuo in terms of build quality, and also image quality. Yongnuo is famous for pricing, not for quality, and the point is that is even a cheap logo.

[@Jawad.1]

This is the SHARPEST APSC lens I've seen on this channel ... but only in the center.

[@quite1enough]

i really hope they will release this for fuji x mount ;c

[@TrueKyanite]

Quite good for a very bright, wide angle aps-c lens. Would gladly have this on the RF line rather than that wonky 16mm f/2.8, or 10-18mm

[@isbestlizard]

I was interested in a lens like this but the optical perfomance in the corners just isn't doing it for me :< Viltrox need to make a super wide prime like their 27 and 75

[@HR-wd6cw]

IDK, I mean between the Sony (and other third party options) I would almost pay the extra $200 for what should be better IQ. But if you're on a strict budget, this shouldn't be that bad as long as your expectations are reasonable for this lens. I'd say that the fringing is what bothered me the most in this lens, personally, even though it can be removed in post usually, it's just an extra step and it doesn't seem to really go away at all, but I guess that's one of the drawbacks of the cheaper lenses. I guess things could have been a lot worse but then again, it may pay to spend a little more if you need sharper corners and better quality overall.

[@jyaneso]

I think the MF Samyang/Rokinon 12mm f/2 is optically a better option... Also cheaper

[@ChrisHernandoTV]

is there any noise during autofocusing when recording video? With my RF16, you can hear the focusing with a rode mic on top of the camera.

[@AllThingsFilm1]

I actually find it humorous that you have to zoom into the corners by several hundred percentage points to see issues with corner sharpness. I've never looked at a photograph and wondered about the corners. Imagine walking around a gallery with a huge magnifying glass in your hand. Because that is what you would need to look at a photograph to examine the corner sharpness. Luckily, as a filmmaker, I don't concern myself with corner sharpness. Even as a photographer, if people are looking at the corners of your photographs then clearly your photos are not all that interesting. That being said, this looks like a pretty good lens for the price. Thanks for the demonstration.

[@Liwinmacmedia]

wich lent you thin is more sharper, this lens or the nisi 9mm 2.8

[@RedmilesShark]

Nice. Hot off the press.

[@chicobraz4335]

We need a budget friendly ultra wide S35 one version of this lens (pl)

[@niterunner9979]

Review the new yongnuo 85.m fl.8s ... metal body

[@RJMPictures]

You didn't even say "please". Manners is free.

[@kevc.2958]

corner sharpness sucks not buying😂

[@BrightExposure]

I noticed this one got a warm tint.

[@amiryusuf1510]

Hello , I’m a dentist trying to buy a canon m6 mark ii , i need a macro lens + twin flash , what do you recommend? Thanks

[@abdallah_m]

The most commonly used lens for this application is the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS Macro USM with EF-M adapter. The large size is the main downside in my opinion. Another option is the Canon EF-M 28mm f/3.5 IS STM Macro. It is much smaller, and you will not need an adapter to use it with your M6. However, you will need to move closer to your patients as it is relatively wide-angle (28mm).

[@krishnansrinivasan830]

Awesome & Thanks :)

[@worldadventuretravel]

Another one only available for mirrorless. :(

[@jordansmith5248]

Wish fuji would make a 12mm f2 or 2.8

[@jyaneso]

Samyang 12mm f/2 for Fuji

[@joalva63]

No Canon version? 😐

[@ПётрБ-с2ц]

02:42 why is focus going past the target? Doesn't A7R3 have phase detect pixels on the sensor?

[@enrique8292]

Time to sell my YN 16 f1.8 for this one

[@novikovgarage_SPB]

and I like the Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8 - a gorgeous lens for ridiculous money, this video was shot on a 6700 + Yongnuo 11mm f/1.8: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHe2coOgmr-DrZY

[@MyPortugueseCulture]

This lens is horrible. Major focus breathing.

[@declaratiipolitice6442]

Thanks for info

[@NetTubeUser]

$300! ... Oof!

[@StymyParsley]

I mean it’s a pretty niche lens

[@thenorth9159]

all is okay except the logo, looks so cheap. They should change that terrible logo

[@CartyCantDance]

well this completely ruins the SONY 11mm 1.8 market. only thing that competes is the AF Rokinon 12mm f2. great for zv-e10/fx30/a6700 users who need low light.

[@Jawad.1]

After reading your comment, I watched Chris' review of both of the lenses you mentioned and turns out that Sony 11mm F/1.8 has not lost its position in the market one bit, as it remain the sharpest lens corner-corner...!!!

[@G95G95]

How does a knock off turd of a lens ruin an OEM gem of a lens for a little more money?

[@HagaishiSama]

The Sony E 11mm F/1.8 is still way better lmao 😂😂😂. You must of been joking
