After much research, I purchased this lens primarily for astro landscape photography.  The build quality is fine for my needs, but not up to the standard of my Canon L lens.  Of course the cost is much less also.  I did a lens test shooting from wide open to fully closed at 1 stop increments.  Wow is this lens sharp from the center to the corners even when wide open!  There is some vignetting from f2.4 though f4, but nothing that can’t be adjusted quickly is Lr or Ps.  My scene has small tree branches without leaves in the upper corners and all were super sharp at f2.4. My camera is a Canon 5diii full frame.   I used the lens for one night shoot of an old canal shot at f11 and the sharpness and contrast were excellent.  The mount lacks the red bump on the outside of the ring to align when placing the lens on the camera.  There is a red dot on the inside of the mount that is a bit more difficult to align.  I recommend the lens based on my initial impression.

An Excellent Lens and Value

This new version of the 14mm is a third of a stop faster, has smoother focus and higher quality to the corners.  There is very little coma and stars look great.
