Happy Consumer!!! So Happy With My Lens !!! It came a lot faster then it said it would! It’s sleek and easy to pick up for a beginner !! Beautiful sharp Images. Comes in Orginal box with manual and a great cloth quilted style string bag.
Great lens! Simply a great lens for a great price. It is a manual focus lens but at 14mm almost everything is in focus.
OK. But too much distortion. This lens is OK for casual use. The image is clear and sharp. But there's really too much barrel distortion for any serious use. And there isn't any firmware to fix it.
