Pros: Build, Sharpness, Bokeh, Contrast, Colors ...

Cons: Vignetting @40mm, Minimum Distance of 1,20m

Opinion: You can get this lens for a low price. Mine was delivered today. As it is an AE lens, it has blades that can create circular saw look. This effect is noticable only at f4. On a full frame camera it is a nice lens for street photography. The minimum distance is a limiting factor for portrait, but with a APS-C or MFT Body it should not be an issue. I like this lens because of it's colors, micro contrast and bokeh. Colour aberrations are under control. There is flare, but it is not really an issue.
