Pros: Super, blurry sharpness

Cons: No

Opinion: This lens is, in a word, a jewel. I own the pancake produced for the Japanese market in the early 1980s, entirely made of metal, minimum focus distance of 45 cm, the one to which Ken Rockwell refers in his review of Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AI S. Very well realized, it works excellently from short distances to infinity, if you start to close by a stop from the maximum opening. Purple fringing almost imperceptible compared to other AI S coevi targets; the lens has a splendid rendering on the colors and free from distortions. Excellent performance at the edges as well.

Pros: Sharpness, brightness, no distortion, bokeh fairytale

Cons: lacks autofocus

Opinion: Perhaps needless to review an objective of the seventies, but it is so perfect that I feel the need to do so. Already 1.8 sharpness is quite good, but 2.8 becomes perfect. The shades of the colors are rendered perfectly, better than any other goal has tried so far. The same photo taken with this lens rather than another will have a sense of fullness that there will fall in love. I have stolen from my father that he had taken in a kit with an old analog SLR and I can not part with it. Try it and you'll be amazed. Vote 10 ... 10 thousand times.
