Fantastic lens when you have a good example. Incredibly fast with beautiful rich bokeh. Check out photos from Phillip Reeves if you need to see excellent pictures. Pairing this with the tools on a mirrorless allows you to quickly focus and capture great images. I use a Fuji X-T30 with an adapter and it works fantastically. Manually focusing is something to get used to, but once you are nothing else feels like you have the same control. My images are quite sharp when they need to be, a modern lens can still beat it, but not at all for the same price. Try to get one under $70 and you'll be happy.

I did some tests with this (on a tripod, of course) and compared it with a newer version of this lens. Both lenses were difficult to tell apart. After 200% magnification of the images, I noticed a small difference in micro-contrast. Most people would not have noticed the difference and they probably wouldn't have examined the comparative images at 200% to look for differences. Bottom line is that this old lens still has it. It is soft at f2.8, and gets very sharp at f4. At f5.6 to f11 - the images are so sharp that they exceed the 24 megapixels resolution of my camera. The newer version of this lens seems identical in this regard. I was very surprised that a lens that was manufactured about 40 years ago can compete with modern glass. Amazing. Contrast, sharpness, and build are all top notch.Read full review
