Review on Meike Olympus Panasonic Digital Mirrorless by Debra Burgess

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good lens but quality control issues

Corrected lenses are so uncharacteristic. When Meike launched a line of manual lenses with a native Micro 4/3 mount, I was dying to try them. Unfortunately, I found their quality control to be very patchy (typical of many Chinese products). If you can get a good copy of this lens, I'm sure it will be a lot of fun and give you pictures with the classic "film" look. But the one I received had a very sticky focus ring - either the lens mount wasn't round or the screw threads were miscut and stuck. This is the second Meike lens that I have had to return.

Pros
  • Lens not attached: MANUAL LENS requires you to enable 'M mode' or 'Leave without lens' in camera settings
Cons
  • Neutral
