Pros: Blurred, precision and ergonomics of the dials, construction, sharpness, price. The well-made lens hood is included.

Cons: Evident chromatic aberrations, autofocus and stabilization are missing but you know it from the beginning.

Opinion: An old-fashioned lens that takes advantage of focus peaking and returns an excellent result from full aperture. My sample is sharp, solid, well built, with precise and correctly frictioned rings. Unfortunately, the chromatic aberrations are evident, but they help to create a vintage mood in portraiture. The shallow depth of field at full aperture requires a steady hand and the ability to think about the shot. The ridiculous price at which I bought it, new, from a German shop during Black Friday sweeps away any hesitation about its defects. 105€ and a few cents. One of the funniest lenses I've ever tried, perfect for escaping from the too many automatisms of contemporary photography.
