Most of these lenses were produced directly out of Japan, so the optical performance and build quality is excellent.

cheaply available this copy of the lens is in mint condition and I love its old school build quality its design is fresh from the 1980s but don't let that P you off it feels tough and solid tightly assembled and it's made of a combination of metal and plastic body parts with a metallic lens mount…

sealed unfortunately but aside from that there are pretty much no downsides in terms of its build and despite its small size this lens has a maximum aperture of f1.8 which makes this little prime lens a fantastic option for [Music] portraits as a portrait lens this RF 50 mm 1.8 has an awful lot…
