Lens is solidly-built and has good optics. On the heavy side due to metal materials. Please be aware that the L-mount on this lens is not compatible with a full-frame Panasonic DSLR like the S5.

Love this new lens. Super affordable and easy to put on my Nikon Z50. I was looking for something with a wider angle for YouTube videos. It has really good bokeh. The lens cap is screw on so, a little wonky but not a big deal. I will warn, your camera must be in manual mode as auto focus won't work with this lens. Highly recommend

I love the lens. I find the colors it produces beautiful on my Fujifilm camera. Ended buying two just in case something happens to the first one.

This little lens is sharp, nice bokeh and overall great. The CA and distortion are better controlled than I expected.

I bought this mostly out of curiosity as to how it would pair with my Nikon fc, admittedly to expecting a lot in the way of quality. Surprisingly, it has turned out to be a lot of fun to play with and it's truly delivered quality images, especially for the low price! Is it a Leica lens? No, but it does a really nice job and has solid sharpness across the frame. Very little distortion, if any in the corners. It also stays with the "manual" nature of the fc and after just a few minutes it became instinctive enough to not really have to think about having to use the manual focus. Again, pleasantly surprised with the quality of images from this lens and even more pleased with how much fun it's been!

I really wanted to like this lens. I like the unusual shape and retro look and feel, and the wide f1.4 aperture would come in handy in low light. Unfortunately, the soft resolution in the corners makes it almost useless wide open. Build quality: excellent, all metal and glass construction, and the focus is smooth. I like having the aperture ring at the front of the lens, and having click stops is nice, although the detents are a bit too soft. Optical quality: At f1.4, the center is reasonably sharp, but the corners are very soft. Contrast is a bit low, and there is significant color fringing. By f2, contrast and color fringing are much better, and there is some improvement in the corners, but not enough. At f2.8 there is enough overall improvement that I would say the results are useable for most applications, with optimum performance between f5.6 and 8, with f11 almost as good. All of my Olympus lenses have better corner sharpness at their worst aperture than this one at its best.
