Pros
  • Sharp images
  • Artistic effects

The build of the lens is very typical of inexpensive manual-focused Chinese lenses, with a metal feel and no weather sealing. The lens has a few quirky features, such as being released on the m42 screw Mount, and the lens filter size is a small 49 wide, but it does not come with a Hood. The lens performs well in terms of sharpness but has low contrast at wider apertures, making it more suitable for artistic effects rather than precise image rendering.
