ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | Minolta 50/1.4 old style Quantaray 24/2.8 (rebadged Sigma) |
price paid: | missing |
positive: | Beautiful bokeh, light and MF ring much better than old style lenses. Becomes a standard lens with 1.5x crop factor. |
negative: | None that I can think of. |
comment: | One of my first "rare" lenses, definitely a keeper! I am curious to see how it will do with Infrared. I noticed that the lens does suffer for some flaring even with it's hood, but that was against the afternoon sunset, not 100 percent sure that would not happen to any wide angle lens... |
