Pros
- 1) Phenomenal sharpness and micro-detail for fisheye. It rings in the center already from 2.8 - in focus it collects light to a point without any signs of coma or decentering, like the poor Samyang 8mm 2) Very nice film color rendering especially on ancient CCDs 3) The presence of autofocus, which is still accurate and fast 4) Super compact - in combination with the Nikon D40, this is the most compact mirror fisheye combination possible 5) Record-breaking small MDF for fish! TWO CM from the front lens to the object ! This allows you to shoot incredible macro still lifes at close range! This is really a full-fledged macro-fish. 6) High build quality - everything is at the level of the professional Nikkor 2.8G series
Cons
- 1) Very strong chromatic aberrations, especially around the periphery - do not disappear until F11. Samyang does not have them at all from 5.6 in the center and 11 along the edges - all the same, the old optics betray themselves. 2) Stupid cover made of plastic that scratches the lens hood 3) The nature of the distortion is for an amateur - it is very different from Samyang, it fills up the lines more strongly and twists the bokeh 4) Insane price 775 USD at the time of the announcement. But now what prevents it from being bought for 12-17 thousand on the Bu market ?
