Product details

The 150 mm focal length and the 1:1 magnification ratio are the main features of the new lens, making it easier to photograph small objects. The greater working distance makes it much easier to work than with other macro lenses with shorter focal lengths. This eliminates issues with lens shadows, and the use of special lighting is entirely feasible. The high aperture of f/2.8 allows for shorter shutter speeds, and the 150 mm focal length offers the best compromise between a narrow field of view, which is highly sought after in macro, advertising, and portrait photography. Therefore, the user has the option to shoot without a tripod.

Gemessen an Nikon CSC, 46 MP, KB: 520 Euro für ein 2,8/150 mm KB-Objektiv klingt interessant – allerdings sollte die Auflösung bei Blende 2,8 in der Bildmitte höher sein. Hinzu kommt ein kräftiger Randabfall des Kontrasts. Bei Blende 5,6 sehen wir mittig sehr gute Werte, doch der Randabfall – besonders des Kontrasts – bleibt zu stark und kostet die Empfehlung...

  • PositiveDas Makro-Tele von Irix überzeugt mit sehr guter Bildqualität sowie einem robusten und massiven Aufbau.
  • NegativeDie Stativschelle ist zwar praktisch, kann aber bei manuellem Scharfstellen von Freihandfotos etwas im Weg sein.

Das Objektiv bietet zum fairen Preis eine sehr hohe Leistung. Der massive Aufbau inklusive O-Ring-Abdichtungen erlaubt den problemlosen Außeneinsatz. Die manuelle Fokussierung ist feinfühlig und arbeitet präzise. Der Lieferumfang enthält Gegenlichtblende, Stativschelle und ein Hard-Case-Etui.
