Pros:Tiny, construction, focus ring, contrast, anti-glare, center sharpness, distance scales and depth of field (true!), stop to infinity
Cons:Price, angular sharpness, vignetting
Opinion:Perfect for street photography (which is why I got it): tiny, smooth and precise manual focus, depth-of-field scale that works, focus ring that stops at infinity *real*. Closing to f/8 you just need to put the focus at one meter to photograph anything around you or at infinity for scenes where the subjects are far away and you want to focus perfectly even the background, so no need to focus through the viewfinder and a lens that can be set before even turning on the camera to be ready to shoot in a fraction of a second, as was done in analogue photography. As for optical qualities: well contrasted, excellent resistance in backlight / side light, sharpness similar to the fujinon 18mm f/2 (but a little better than this in the center of the image) so not excellent but good for use on the street or in reportage, another defect is the vignetting but predictable for such a small pancake. For landscapes, if you want a perfect rendering from corner to corner, it is better to use other lenses. In short, a goal, in my opinion, quite specialized. The price, despite the impeccable construction both in terms of materials and mechanics, is still a bit high.
