From the editor

A professional short telephoto lens with a moderately complex optical formula, which contains many special elements, and an ultra-fast speed of F/1.4. The professional features of the lens include a control ring, dual function buttons, and support for wireless remote control that works at a distance of up to 30m. With the latter, you can control the focus, start and stop video recording, and more. There is another switch on the lens barrel, SW, which, depending on your preference, can function as a focus mode switch or a wireless remote control switch. The DSM stepping motor is responsible for smooth, fast and quiet autofocus. There is a USB Type C connector at the rear of the lens, which can be used to update the lens firmware. For a lens with a speed of F/1.4, the Yongnuo 56mm is not too heavy or large, and all that is missing to be completely happy is weather sealing.
