| positive: | Size Center sharpness Focus Encoder Lens Compensation De-clickable |
| negative: | Lateral CA Dark, smeared corners Fully manual Lack of sealing |
| comment: | This is a manual, unit focus lens with electronic contacts. "Lens made in Japan" Center sharpness and contrast wide-open is good, but by mid-frame is already a bit worse than the old Sigma 12-24 zoom at 12 mm. It has slightly more lateral CA than that zoom. Not a great deal for the cost, but it is small and fun to use. |

| compared to: | (nice small) Voigtländer 12mm F5.6 leica39 (screw) mount (which gave purple edges). |
| price paid: | 550 Euro |
| positive: | - Great for architecture or landscapes - sharp |
| negative: | A bit too heavy. It's solid metal, but that wasn't completely nessecery IMO. |
| comment: | Great lens for cities like New York City. You can get it all on one picture.. even your own feet (if you don't watch out). |
