It has macro capability of 1:2 maximum magnification. This lens, with its focal length of 90mm, is aimed squarely at portrait and product photographers. It is a replacement for the older 90mm f/2.8 TS-E lens, which was neither macro, nor “L”. In uneven light, the exposure preview gives you a heads up to exposure problems before you hit the shutter button.The Canon TS-E 90mm f/2.8 L Macro Lens is a new specialist lens from Canon, launched at the same time as two other TS-E Macro lenses, a 50mm and a 135mm. In back light, it keeps the sun out of my eye. In low light, the EVF is like a night vision scope with perfect color.

I wish it was the size of the 5 series cameras. Complaints about the larger size of the R are part of what prompted me to try it. The 6D is bigger and more comfortable to hold. The other big time saver is that big level. You can’t beat an OVF on a nice day, except with a TSE lens where the R cuts your shooting time by a third to a half.

So - are you a full convert to R yet? Paying tithe and left old 6D ways behind for good? pretty well the same here - average 3/7 frames are to overexp for use an kicked out -of my final image sometimes I can punch them down with a blend mode and save something but only under atypical lighting. If the birds are out, I will stick with my 100-400, though. I still have the 6, so maybe I will try to get some samples when I shoot this afternoon. With the R, I only have to chimp in very high contrast scenes where I might need more than my usual normal, +2.3, and-2.3.

Once home, I deleted all but the three brackets I would use, or sometimes more in a really high contrast scene. With the 6, I would chimp then adjust EC. Hi Ed, oiii that burn out - esp on the high exp end is very pesky - can you post examples the 6D vs R at + 2 stops or whatever your high end is? It would be interesting to see the difference in the R.Īs you cite, the 6D high end of a tilt shift bracket is a bummeroni - sometimes the it nails all 7 frames - but that's 1/500 - yet to discover why.

I can’t imagine regretting the purchase of this lens, if you like wide angle. It works with the exposure program on wR when shifted just like any other lens. You often have to EC by 4 stops or so when shifted. I have read that it’s the same on all DSLRs. The lens freaks out the exposure program on my 6D. this combined with the new R system push.told me a bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush and if they pull the old ones - I'd be up a "certain creek " everyone knows.without means of propulsion aka a paddle. twas in the same pickle waiting on a new Canon TS E 17 MK II,the new 24 has been a dream but there is no guarantee a new 17 version will outperform the old one - not uncommon with ' new ' Canon ' lenses. Unfortunately as this lens is still relatively new, there are none on the second hand market. IF too long a wait will probably get the 50mm as an interim. I will try to hold off this purchase until I see the Fujifilm GFX road map/timeframe, where "rumoured" 3 tilt shift lenses are coming out. It is a pricey lens but for work should get your money's worth of us. The 50mm seems to be an awesome lens to have. Very useful.Īm sure the 50 is optically better than the 45. He has an excellent repository of articles, reviews and commentary relevant Keith Cooper of Northern Lights Images has this review of the 50 : But wondering if anyone has any experience shooting with both lenses. I currently have the TSE 45mm, but wondering is it significantly less sharp than the newer TSE 50. Hi, there's not much online regarding a comparison of these two lenses.
