Pros: Compactness and lightness-cost of purchase content

Cons: Very unusual focal length range-just discrete focus speed-strong distortion at 38mm-Optical rendering not great

Opinion: The optics were introduced in 1995, at the time of film Reflex. The peculiarity of the product is undoubtedly the range of focal lengths: it is a 2x zoom, but the choice to opt for a 38-76mm, in lieu of a more common (for the time) 35-70 or 35-80, is rather singular. On the manufacturer's sites there is little information, and the optics does not even appear on the volumes of the "EF lens work", on the market from 1992 and systematically updated with the various models of EF optics produced. The only reason I bought the optics is because of the curiosity towards this object: Having found a copy used for 9 euros, on ebay, the purchase was almost obbigatorio. The focus is via a DC micromotor: it is much quieter than the old AfD engines, but more noisy than an USM unit. Also, the focus speed is not very high. The front part of the optics extends, during the focus. The optical yield is in line with that of other contemporary optics, of similar focal length: they were suitable for small prints, say up to A4 format, and even today for such use can still provide a dignified yield. An annoying defect is the distortion that the lens offers wide-angle side: Despite being well 38mm, it almost seems to work with a 28 or 24mm. As an optical emergency zoom, street photography or to have a very compact travel lens, it can have its raison d'être. All if you find it acceptable the range of focal lengths...
