I was in the Family list as 600D user, please count me in the 70D users now! Haha.
 Anyway, seems like I have some dust on one of my mirrors. Just in case it's too sticky to remove with the handheld blower, how much do you guys think it'll cost me to clean the mirrors at the official Canon service centers?  This post has been edited by vankodoq: Apr 5 2016, 10:11 AM |

QUOTE(ronaldlim91 @ Apr 4 2016, 04:28 PM) Hey guys, i'm in the market of buying a prime lens (currently eyeing Canon's 50mm F1.8 STM because it's the most affordable one). It's my first upgrade since the purchase of 650D w/ 18-55mm & 55-250mm. I find that my shoots are mostly portraits, so it seems like a reasonable path to get a cheap prime as my first upgrade. STM only add metal mount and manual focus overwrite.So seeing Canon's upgrade to their famous f1.8 primes, I actually decided to get the STM version. Asked for the pricing with one the famous malaysian shops, and its price is around ~rm500-ish. Consulted one of my friends (wedding videographer/media student) about getting the STM version after trying out his mk.2, but he strongly advised my against buying the STM version saying that the STM doesn't really offer much benefits for the extra price. He said to better use the money for a second-hand f1.4, but if I'm dead set on getting the f1.8 then he would just rather recommend the mk.2 instead. So, here am I, asking for more opinions, to go with mk.2 or STM? Way-in pls sifu! p/s I know it's just merely a cheapo lens compared to all the godly lens, it's just an small addition to my camera gear that doesn't cost me a bomb. One of a side-interests of mine hahahahaha. Image quality almost same as previous one. Problem is mk2 old model, if get used unit cannot guaranty the condition. Just get new STM since only rm500+. I also own EFS 24mm F2.8 STM, it is cheap and light to carry. Personally I prefer focal length on EFS 24mm as compared to EF 50mm on crop body. |

QUOTE(syk @ Apr 5 2016, 06:18 PM) I also own EFS 24mm F2.8 STM, it is cheap and light to carry. 50mm on APS-C is very limited. The FOV comes to almost 80mm and for walkabout there's really not much you can frame. Personally I prefer focal length on EFS 24mm as compared to EF 50mm on crop body. 24mm on APS-C is good for general purpose, it comes to about 35mm FOV. |
