Pros: Once of the sharpest lens ever tested

Cons: Short macro focal length

Opinion: It is even better than Zeiss Milvus 50mm and Planar 50mm, and equal to Sigma 50mArt.It is remarkably detail and sharp even corner.I used many 50mm such as Leica-R 50mm Summicron, Contax Planar 50mm, Nikon 50mm G, Canon 50mm STM, but this is Top of all these lenses. I used Fuji 35mm and Panasonic Leica 25mm, and Pentax sharpest 35mm AL. But none of them come close except Sigma Art 50mm.

Pros: Sharp even at full opening and homogeneous up to the edges of f4, wonderful mechanical construction, sublime overall optical rendering with excellent blur and gradual tonal passages, af precise, construction that shields the front lens as there was a light lampshade, light, Compact.

Cons: Af a little slow (for static macros and portrait goes BENISSIMO). They haven't done it (since 1987)... Sigh.

Opinion: What a beautiful lens! Too bad they haven't done it since 1987. I was lucky enough to find a virtually perfect specimen, without oil on the diaphragm, without dust, mold, scratches, well centered and with perfect maf without having to micro-adjust. In my opinion as a focal is more versatile than the 60mm af-d macro. I recommend it unreservedly if you find a copy in good condition.
