A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

In terms of price / quality ratio, this is the absolute leader. For $100 you can get one of the best lenses for SC systems. I have both 1.4D and 1.4G fifty dollars, I know what I'm talking about. It could cost one and a half to two times more and would still be moderately popular (since one of the sharpest on the system in general).
It even slightly outperforms the more expensive 1.8G, 1.4D and even 1.4G half-tones by two to three times! (but inferior at the edges of the frame).
This is a great choice for beginners to "try" - cheap, easy to buy, and if something goes wrong - then it's easy to sell for the same money for which you bought it.

Pros

This is one of the two best primes for beginner photographers (only 35 1.8G is even better for a beginner with a crop camera): - The cheapest on the system. In bu cheaper than any other fixes. Anyone can afford to buy it and check out these quality fixes of yours. - Oddly enough, one of the sharpest on the system if closed from 2.8 onwards. From f4 to about f11, the sharpness is enough to resolve even 30mp matrices. Even crops. - For normal working copies, you can shoot portraits from 1.8 - soft but quite moderately - Aperture 1.8 (light transmission, respectively, somewhere t2.0) for $100. Usually such cheap fixes already have 2.8 - Aperture ring. It will work with the cheapest macro rings or bellows without electronics inside, through cheap adapters it will fit on any bzk and even on zk kenon (newfangled G versions will not, or a special more expensive G adapter is needed). - The smallest and lightest on the system. Takes up almost no space in your bag. - Screwdriver but very smart af (because it is very light) - Very common, you can always find one at the local photo flea market - And cheap again. It is not a pity to take with you in the most cruel conditions)) - The most pop and cheap filter diameter of 52mm - FF coating - Reliable and durable. Mine is over 10 years old already, works like new and hasn't worn out much.

Cons

- Requires a screwdriver. Those. there will be no AF on the younger 3xxx and 5xxx carcasses. - Soft on the open. The software is not deadly but distinct. It is better to cover up to at least 2.2 - The manual focus ring is narrow and light. Manual focus leaves something to be desired compared to other options.
