Cons: A good chance of accumulating dust. 55mm thread.
Pros: Slim, lightweight, and everything expected from an f/4 lens... and everything expected from a Zeiss lens.
Summary: Push-pull action doesn't bother me except for the worries of accumulating dust. 55mm filter thread is not as common as 52mm or 58mm but it also doesn't demand very expensive accessories. It has one of the least flares and even beautiful ones if intentionally induced. CA is present only on extreme contrasts, yet very easy to fix. Do not expect automation from manual lenses. That is not a valid con.
