steveBK Posted January 8, 2021 Share #1 Posted January 8, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Pre-ordered and it just showed up today, will post photos later. It’s only $200 so not a lot to complain about but wanted to give a heads up on a few things as it is NOT clear from the sale listing. - No RF coupling - Fixed 5.6 aperture (it does not stop down) - Distance scale is basically useless for scale focusing as there’s no markings between 0.5M and infinity Some of this may be amended now on sales listing as I emailed Photorumors who responded they just got their copy and didn’t seem to be aware in advance either.. So given the above I’ve done some test shorts in LV mode on M10M only so far. Oh well, probably should have just bought an old 35/3.5 Elmar or Summaron for fun.. or anything from MS Optical. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveBK Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted January 8, 2021 It is far from the worst lens I have used, and considering it is $200 shipped I can't be too upset. I think it is a good value if you know what you are getting up front which is why I shared info. I have not gotten out of my attic office with it thus far, so here are 3 shots at varying distances (~5m / 1-2m / 0.5m) All lightly processed in Lightroom. Welcome, dear visitor!
