Solid Lens, Solid Performance - Brightin Star AF50 f1.4 Review

We’ve had a look at a few Brightin Star lenses in the past, and they’ve all been solid and very interesting in their approach, and the new 50 1.4 is no different. Well, there is One major difference: autofocus! But how well do they do with their first attempt at an autofocus lens? Let’s find out!

Amazing pictures. Loved your work.

Man I’m stuck between choosing this lens or the meike 55 1.4 and ttartisan 56 1.8. I would love your opinion on these three. I like the look of the brightin star but I wouldn’t mind having a bit more focal length. I like ttartisan but I’d like to have an aperture that opens up to 1.4. And I like meike but wouldn’t mind having an all around metal build. So you can see I’m stuck lol
