    75mm · f/1.8

    Overview

    The Angenieux 75 mm f/1.8 Type S6 is a cine lens with solid build quality. Optically, it benefits significantly from stopping down: at f/5.6 it yields the sharpest image, but at wide open (f/2.5) it exhibits low contrast, saturated colors, and prevailing vignette on APS-C, with aberrations that disappear from f/5.6 onward. A user on allphotolenses.com notes it is 'soft' at f/1.8. Its image circle is smaller than some peers, causing vignette even on APS-C at wide apertures. It suits users who prioritize sharpness at stopped-down apertures and can manage its wide-open limitations.
