Reviews in English

Dustin Abbott
Pros: beautiful made and beautifully compact, some weather sealing, almost no distortion, sharp at wide apertures / exquisitely sharp at smaller apertures, beautiful color rendition and soft bokeh rendering, excellent microcontrast, focus ring is near perfect, clickless aperture option and gearing design makes it a great video lens.
Cons: relatively expensive, minor amount of chromatic aberrations, a bit of barrel distortion, manual everything isn’t for everyone.
