Pros: Small, light, very easy to handle, good construction, almost no distortion, excellent sharpness, all combined with the typical neutral/warm color rendering of FD lenses.

Cons: Basically no one, or at least for me who has always used it on film, has not shown any.

Opinion: It is a lens that perhaps does not enjoy the excellent reputation of which the FD counterparts equipped with a "breachlock" tightening ring are always accredited, for what is my experience, however, I can only speak well of it especially because of the excellent combination of the various characteristics, both optical and mechanical, that distinguishes it. Ultimately, it is a lens that has always given me considerable satisfaction in field use.

Pros: Very good from f 2.8 up, solid construction.

Cons: A little soft up to 2.8.

Opinion: Another lens removed from the box where it rested, thanks to the M6 and the FD lens adapter. All still perfect, immaculate lenses and MF ring nuts and apertures as they were new. Only problem the hood (original) that has the latches that do not hold almost more (plastic, silicone?). Tried on the M6 I find it slightly soft and requires some little more intervention in DPP.
