Opteka 50mm f/2 Reviews

Good sharpness and contrast, little to complain about

By Thomas J
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2020-05-03

Optics very good, mechanics quite good, fit to my Fuji X-T3 camera is good also but maybe slightly tight. It's less tight on my X-E1 but this is the same with all my Opteka and Meike lenses. Images have punchy contrast and sharpness, with little if any chromatic aberrations. Hard to ask for more at this price and with these spherical optics. It is $20 more than the Meike and I think it is worth it for the image quality. Admittedly, the differences are slight. Sharpness across the frame can be obtained at F5.6 to F8. Center sharpness is very good wide open. Bokeh is pleasant.

Stellar optics for a low price

I really like this lens! I had a 7artisans 50mm F1.8, but this Opteka 50mm F2 lens is better. I got it in Fuji X-mount. It fits a little bit tightly on my X-T3. but almost loosely on my X-E1 (still a good fit). I have another Opteka lens and also a Meike lens, and they both fit this same way, so it's normal. Focus ring and aperture ring turn smoothly through their ranges. Aperture ring has no click-stops but I can live with this. Infinity focus is before the infinity marking on the focus ring, but that's OK with me. Center sharpness is very good F2-F5.6, but diffraction softens this beginning at F8. For good sharpness across the APS-C frame you really need to stop it down to F5.6 - F8, but for most of what I do, I don't really need sharpness across the frame. It delivers very good contrast and presence (hard to define this but it's a good thing). Highly recommended!

Good for things that don't move

This lens is light and fast, and if you can nail the focus, it's fairly sharp even wide open. But given the limitations with manual focusing in low light with the Nikon 1 system (using this lens on the V2 and V3), it's best that this lens is used for studio work, portraits, and things that don't move around a lot.

I am confused among opteka 50mm f2 and 7artisans 50mm f1.8, how is the image sharpness at widest aperture? I want to use it with xt100.
Asked by: Anonymous
Our 50mm is very sharp, even at the widest aperture, however, the optimal sharpness is almost always at 2 stops down.
