A Budget Lens
Smart Photography|August 2018

Yongnuo is a Chinese brand that offers electronic flashguns, accessories and lenses at very reasonable costs.

A Budget Lens

In my review of this lens, I am going to consider this point and not compare the lens quality to expensive equivalents from other manufacturers. The lens in the current review is a Nikon mount lens.

We reviewed a Yongnuo 35mm f/2 Canon mount lens in March 2016. Besides the different mount, the current lens (the Nikon mount lens) has a better build quality. In the earlier reviewed Canon mount lens, the lens extended when focussing; the current lens (Nikon mount) does not extend during focussing, though the elements do move back and forth. The Canon mount lens had a filter size of 52mm; the Nikon mount lens has 58mm filter thread.
