Thanks for the review. One thing I’ve never seen mentioned in reviews - so it may or may not be particular to my copy of the lens - is that when shooting with Electronic First Curtain Shutter turned on, there is a gradient shadow (in horizontal orientation) in the top 1/4-1/3 of the frame, increasingly so, at speeds 1/1000 and higher. This is exacerbated by smaller apertures, as well. This does not occur with full-mechanical shutter, nor with full-electronic shutter. A consolation: if shooting outdoors at wide apertures (and therefore faster speeds), it’s best to shoot with full-mechanical shutter, since EFCS causes “bokeh” to look choppy or distorted.

"cheap AF" ... lol, well played. you're bang on with the "good enough" statement. is the sony 1.8 better? sure. is it 3 times better? is the 1.4 nine times better? some people don't want to do that evaluation or even accept the results. there are definitely times when you need the capabilities of those lenses. but for most photographers, even non-working photographers, i'd argue that they'd be surprised what good enough really is for them. there's a definite point where the price/performance ratio tops out, but unfortunately with GAS and the mindset that having the absolute highest optical and autofocus performance there are too many hung up on corner sharpness or various types of distortion that will never be noticed in the type of work they produce.
@robinte98

nah man. That unreliable hunk of glass really is not good enough for everybody. The CAs are so severe, that they were distracting in some shots (making them useless). I only shoot old lenses myself, and this performance is even below my standards... Just get a used (maybe even vintage) lens instead or save up for something that actually performs well. Or get something that at least has some interesting characteristics. This lens is so generic in every category it performs reasonably in, and bad in every other. I agree that lenses don't need to be expensive, but they should not be whatever this is either.

Very good value! I'm a cheap man, the Meike paired with an old A7 can be a perfect cheap man setup.

I love how third party chinese lenses are pulling more AF cheap alternatives, I'm waiting for the TTartisan developments in AF lenses for all mounts. Even Yongnuo have dirt cheap lenses that work ok enough.

I assume it's a crop lens so it won't be using the whole sensor on an A7.

According to the rigorous DxO Mark testing system, the Yongnuo YN 85mm f/1.8S DF DSM is 3rd overall in their tested lenses (which are hundreds). It leads the 4000$ Carl Zeiss Distagon T* Otus 55mm f/1.4 ZF.2 by one point in the rankings... wow ! To round things up, the ultimate top lens is the Nikon Nikkor Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct. But it's rated only 4 points higher than this Yongnuo, yet the Nikkor's price tag is... 8000$. Who said "That Yongnuo is a bargain !"...?

They must have sent you a pre-production model, since my example of this lens has a focus ring that's not wobbly and moves smoothly. Also, there are complaints about the AF, but mine focuses smoothly (latest firmware). As far as CA, it's inevitable with leaves against sunlight. For $200, the lesser build-quality isn't even worth complaining about; only those familiar with G and GM series lenses will notice, anyway.
