Comments about Phoenix Phoenix 24mm f/2.8 Wide Angle Manual Focus Lens for Yashica Conventional SLRs:

I bought this lens because I wanted to see if this was going to be wide enough with the crop factor on my new Canon T2i. I bought an adaptor to mount it to my camera and it works great. I normally shoot in manual focus, so the fact that it is only a manual lens didn't bother me. It is a f/2.8 lens which I love also because A) the price is sub-$100 and B) I don't like to shoot with a flash in low light. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone looking for a manual lens for low light and/or artsy photos. The price is just right as to not worry about it if it happens to break or scratch (I shoot at a lot of bars and music venues, which is something I have to worry about if I get bumped). I haven't had it long enough to comment on the reliability and durability, but so far so good.

Comments about Phoenix Phoenix 24mm f/2.8 Wide Angle Manual Focus Lens for Yashica Conventional SLRs:

I was looking for a good lense for my old 35mm that would allow me to take some good wide angle photos. What I got was an inexpensive lense that allows me to take great wide angle shots for family get-togethers or of some fantastic scenary. Love it and wished I had found it sooner.
