B&W film
Bokeh
Digital
Build qualityVery nice and solid. It also have a great feel to it. Conclusion Really lovely lens at almost all point. Image quality is great but has some noticeable corner softness at bigger apertures. Otherwise nice sharpness, contrast and bokeh. Do prone to flare quite a lot in backlight which I quite expected. This flare can however give a nice warm feel to the shots which can look great. But this can of course also be something you don't want in some occasions. One of the m42 gems, these can often be found cheap which gives this nice lens great value for the money. Thumbs up: Image quality Build quality Contrast / Bokeh Flare / backlight if you like it's look Thumbs down: Corner sharpness at bigger apertures Flare / backlight if you don't like it Want to help
