Yes very hard but ... I think you had a great time ;) ---------- Post added 03-31-24 at 01:25 PM ----------
Looking at your photos I do not doubt the quality and versatility of this magnificent lens, a long time ago I would have really liked to try this lens but I am a 50mm or larger lens.
Good job this month! ---------- Post added 03-31-24 at 02:13 PM ---------- Well, this is the end.
I have to say that it has been years since I did this monthly challenge and I have felt comfortable and not very forced to shoot. 100mm is a focal length similar to the 85mm, which is the one I use the most (canon FD 85mm f1.8), with the penalty of a considerably slower iris but with the advantages of macro (although it is not 1:1).
The plastic condition and the slow focus are not a problem for me, I use it manually, that and its low weight (220 gr.) makes it a portable and fun lens.
The image quality is sufficient for me but it has something that I don't like at all, which is that vignetting in the form of a lateral linear gradient in some photos with strong frontal light.
Even so, the lens has passed the test and I will not sell it.
I haven't taken so many photos since before the pandemic, my wife and this challenge have helped me pick up the camera again and have a good time. Now I will play with my new toy (xiaomi 14 ultra) and I will be back another month.
