Pros: Light transmission, usable full aperture, high contrast, low flare, low distortion and CA, overall sharpness. Top manufacturing quality and handling.

Cons: coma, vignetting, no weather sealing, price

Opinion: Light is never missing with this lens. Similar to the old Noct Nikkor 58/1.2, the contrast is already high at full aperture and rises after that, with very little flare. The full aperture is definitely usable but the vignetting is high and slowly decreases upon closing the diaphragm. A good way to avoid "clipped corners" and the effects of outward field curvature would be to crop to 4:3 ratio, systematically. The lens is well corrected, except for the coma (a pity for an otherwise well-designed night or low light lens). In particular, longitudinal chromatic aberration is present but not generally disturbing. Night shots look surprizingly but consistently clean and sharp Its relatively compact size and manageable weight make it a good allrounder. Having seen several reviews, may I warn against the nonsense of judging the lens by pixel-peeping the impressions on a 45Mp sensor? this lens is best paired with a 24Mp sensor, in which case it is a joy to use and results are quite good. The max aperture of f/1.0 may seem excessive, until you realize it provides you with one full stop more light than the conventional f/1.4 lenses, and possibly more because of excellent light transmission. Moving subjects can be frozen again. Also, focusing this lens is less hard than I thought because of smooth and precise mechanical action, coupled with a high contrast in the sharpness plane... not to mention that cameras such as the Zf provide efficient focusing aids.
