    Cons: very slow (bad luminosity) sharpness could definitely be better (given itīs a Limited prime lens)

    Pros: Great build quality small and lightweight flare-resistant almost no distortion built-in hood

    Summary: A great lens for landscapes, light, well-build, portable, usefully wide, with almost-zero distortion, low CAs, great flare resistance. However if you expect fantastic sharpness you might be dissapointed, it is worse than my DFA 100mm f2,8 WR and also than my Sigma 18-35mm f 1,8. Also usage in interiors is limited due to bad luminosity. Overall 4* out of 5.
