Review Summary

Rated 5 out of 5

Spectacular results in such a tiny size

Ideal for starry sky astro shots as there is almost no coma. I find the 18mm (full frame equiv) angle of view to be just right for landscapes. Stopping down to f/5.6 give nearly infinite DoF and brings the corners into their best sharpness. It is weather sealed AND take standard filters!
