Excellent for Voice
on April 18, 2016

These Mics are tailored to the human voice. If you want music quality this is not it. But for Actor SoundTracks - it is Perfect! Batteries last a long time - Alkaline. The "A" Band is what I got. No signal problem.
Please note that like most vocal Lavs these Mics clip the higher frequencies. So everyone has a deeper throaty voice. Easy to fix via Inverted RIAA at 25% in post.
Very well built. Solid metal and strong. Have to mention one big negative. The slip on Shoe Mount is absolutely horrible. It SUCKS! No need to be so tight and clumsy.
There are better all around Mics out there. Just that there is none as well suited for voice as these Lavs. The price hurts though.

Dependable

I use it in...:Small office
Although the stand makes for a funny appearance it works Great! My dumb old ATT unit sucked. This one is cool, kind of clunky but always runs at max speed. With dual at once speed it really runs fast all the time.
What's great about it: Performance
What's not so great: Clumsy shape
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cheap but good

What can I say. Protective glass in a lightweight frame. It almost cross threaded on me (3) times in a row before going on right. Beyond that. It works. But the glass is thin so be careful.
What's great about it: Price
What's not so great: Cross threads too easily
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fixed length lenses are the best!
on August 31, 2012
Posted by: SPUD603
from Southern California
Needed a fixed length lens for passport photos and quick art reproduction work. Found some good reviews on this lens - and it is GREAT! Yes it does have some barrel distortion, but PhotoShop fixes that right up.
What is great is that there is almost no chromatic aberration. And I mean none for images reproduced up to 36"x48". Awesome. The lens is also pretty neutral in color for our studio lighting. The best is the cost! Paying around $100 versus our $2,500 Fluorite F2.8/70-200L is huge.
But remember you only get what you are paying for. The lens focus motor is noisy and sounds cheap. The lens mount is plastic, so remember to apply a very, VERY thin film of vaseline to the flange area to prevent lockup. And the color of the plastic looks flat.
But for what excellent photos it takes, the cheap price, light weight, and small size - IT IS GREAT!
What's great about it: The speed - DUH - F1.8
What's not so great: Plastic body is strong but looks cheap
I would recommend this to a friend!

17-40/F4L is Awesome

Kept on thinking of getting the F2.8 but the cost, size, weight was way out there. LOVE this F4 version. It balances very nicely and is VERY, VERY sharp.
This lens is quiet, powerful and looks hot with that giant sunshade.
Definitely made the right choice in picking this versus the 2.8.
What's great about it: Weight, Quality, Price
What's not so great: Nothing - It's perfect!
