Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this lens provide focal plane illumination that is sufficiently near telecentric to allow the f/2.8 pixel condensers in the Canon focal plane to work, out to the corners of the image?

A: The Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Lens for Canon EF (B&H# MI50095CEF), while non tele-centric, will allow for cameras possessing a Canon EF mount to attain critical focus throughout the focal plane. Naturally, there is some curvature to that. As is always the case with fast prime lenses, the center is sharpest, but by about f/2 the image circle in general is sharp enough for typical photographic portraiture usage in even the non central region of the frame. Of course, whether or not that is enough for your usage will depend on your needs and preferences. Stop down to f/8 to achieve the wider depth of field that you need if you want the corners to be their sharpest despite natural field curvature.
