Not bad for the price, but I probably won't buy again.

The lens worked perfectly the first time, I was even surprised it worked at all. But after some thought and testing I found that this is still an overpriced product at $140. For 1st cost - you can find cheaper but not by much. And they're pretty much the same.2. The mount is specially designed for the E-Mout, the good thing is that you don't have to look for a suitable adapter. Cons: (To be clear, I know it's cheap, I know I shouldn't, and I'm not asking much. Judging by the $140 cost)1. Lens quality is bad. The lens may have become very thin or even uncoated. As a professional photographer, you probably know that most lenses are coated layer by layer. And this one, no. Yes if you mean don't ask much for that price then you can stop reading here but it's $140 it's not $70 consider how much you make per hour. I think 140 still counts for a lot of money.2. I use A7 full frame so I had to adjust the settings to make sure the image didn't look like other users' photos. globe view. Which no longer matches their full screen description.3. The end result of the photo is bad. If you think photos look good, try real ones. Let's not talk about cost here because it was mentioned in the pro section, but I need a lens that can at least give a sharp image, not this one. intense usage experience.

Pros
  • Very good value
Cons
  • Not everyone is happy with it
