Tax sharp, great!

This lens is very sharp at wide aperture with slight color fringing, but this can be corrected in Lightroom. I love the way this lens looks when shooting video, it gives it a more cinematic feel. Best $30 I've Ever Spent!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Negative impression

Great lens for still lenses

A sharp, fast lens that delivers excellent subject-background separation at maximum aperture and beautiful bubbles of bokeh in the right light. Combined with a crop sensor digital camera, this makes an excellent manual focus portrait lens. Resolves many details; his age is not a disadvantage.

Pros
  • There's something special about it
Cons
  • It pisses me off

A bit heavy but this makes the camera look good and work as it should

Great value for money portrait lens for the EM5. It takes a while to get used to the sharpness limitations of focus versus limited depth of field, but with the Fotasy MAOMJ OM Classic Lens Adapter for m43 I don't see why the combination could go wrong. A little heavy, but the camera looks good and works as it should.

Pros
  • Shiny
Cons
  • Damaged

Great old camera lens Lens

I have this old lens and adapter for my E510 and it takes great pictures! It would be better if I really knew how to use it properly, but constant use and experience. Finally, I won't be using my car lens anymore since I got it and the Rokinon 500mm f8. with in my opinion very good results for a non-photographer

Pros
  • Sturdy build
Cons
  • Quick instructions

Best value camera lens

I am a student and amateur photographer, so my budget is very limited. I ordered this because of the price and some reviews I saw on YouTube. I wasn't expecting much, but I just wanted something with a wide aperture. To be honest, this was one of the best purchases I've made in a long time. This is of course not a Zeiss or Leica lens, but WOW! Really amazing quality and way better than I expected! Manual focus is smooth but tight, and the aperture ring is solid. The lens is very strong. The…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Low repairability
