Pros: Very light, cheap and with a 9 aperture, it has incredible sharpness. And I'm not kidding...

Cons: No one can find it for 10 euros. and takes the same photos as a 200 lens... and more euros.. Here, the flaw, at least in mine, is that the focus switch has come off. But I put a piece of scotch tape on it and it works the same. And maybe I could even glue it if I wanted to get rid of the tape.

Opinion: I had inherited it together with an old DSLR and I kept it in a drawer because I didn't remember it performing so well. Then I read here that a user says that by closing the aperture the lens becomes sharp and then, what the heck.. I try it... At aperture: 9 I see details of an old postcard that I often use to understand the sharpness of the various optics. Anyway, I saw details of the print that I had never noticed before with other much more expensive and emblazoned optics. I was stunned...! from 7.1 the improvement begins and when the sharpness closes, it increases exponentially... Of course it is a bit limiting to work at f 8 or 9, but if you can this lens at any focal length it makes wonderful photographs and the colors are very beautiful.. Rated 10 !!

Pros: Compactness and lightness (it has at a minimum the weight and size of a fixed), optical quality closing a little diaphragm, ridiculous price

Cons: what can be said against a lens at 10 degrees (I bought it 7th combined with a canon eos 500) that also works well?... all plastic? It is rather a Pro that a Con so compact and light... the range that starts at only 35mm?... low light?... it would have been much bigger and heavier... ?! you can't expect everything from an entry level lens sold in kit almost 30 years ago, the only thing I'm sorry about is that there is no DxO correction module that would have "exalted" even more its good optical performance.

Opinion: this all-plastic toy that does not inspire any confidence has very good optical quality on FF (eos 6D), is uniform and sharp to all the focal and openings from 35 to 50mm, only to the longest focal (80mm) is mediocre, see poor at TA, but it becomes good by closing already by 1 f/stop, in addition this lens suffers very little divening even to the most closed diaphragms (16 and 22) the sharpness is good, the AF is quite quick and very precise, the blurred certainly a little limited by the opening is good quality, the flare is a little present not as colored spots but as a loss of contrast in cases of strong light on the lens, control. a bit like the "vintage" goals, the various abertions (AC, etc...) are invisible even without SW correction, only the 35mm distrophion is quite visible... in short, a really surprising lens in relation to the price that is lower than that of a cap per machine body. The range, the compactness, the discretion and the remnance to the difpher (use in snapshoot to hyperfocal) make it a good optics for the Street Photo.... given the price and performance I can recommend it, certainly not as a "main" optics but in addition to a more "serious" set when you want to come out light and discreet.
