My Favorite Lens I was hesitant to spend so much on a manual focus lens. I'm not a professional photographer, just an enthusiast. I use mainly Nikon lenses For my d810 and d750 but recently purchased a Lensbaby Velvet 56mm manual focus lens, so I was less uncomfortable manually focusing . When I saw the auction price I decided it was too good not try bidding. I absolutely LOVE this lens. I have no problem focusing, handheld. Yes, it's a bit hefty, but thwart doesn't bother me. To me, it's all about the quality of the lens and the photos it produces. On the d810 it is amazing.
Lens value is less. It is good lens but dents around the body. That is not exactly what I expect.
Super normal Phenomenal lens, phenomenal price
