Mediocre goods, most likely I will not use.

Clearly overrated. For interiors, it’s better to take the same wide zoom only with F4, anyway, not a single normal pro shoots interiors with their hands, that one is sharper across the frame and high F values ​​\u200b\u200bare much clearer than this glass. The advantages of glass are evening architecture and creative portraits, because you can control distortion and that's it. Rating 4 lens. And put three because of the price. Its 80,000 is not worth it at all. The red price for him is 25 on the secondary market. At work, no one likes this glass.

Pros

Light, bright, very comfortable focal length when shooting both outdoors and indoors.

Cons

Completely unsharp at the edges from 2.8 to 9-10. You can downvote as much as you want, but those who write about it are right. More or less uniform sharpness only at 11-14F, which is not always enough for interiors, and even then the edges are also soft.
