Review: Good for what it is - This is a good lens in the image. Quality is fantastic. The build will maybe it could use some work because mine was stuck and needed Force to get it to adjust at first. Now is very smooth and works good but it snapped inside when I first tried freeing it from it s stuck position when I first got it. It's easy to use if you know how to use a manual focus lens. It fits any EF Mount. The pictures are clear. I spoke with the manufacturer about this and they gave me a discount because of that problem with that lens. So it's all good.
Review: a little research needed for beginners, but is worth it. - It's amazing, at first, I was scared because many reviews said it wouldn't let you capture on most mirrorless cameras, after some minor research I realized that all you have to do is make sure your camera is set to manual on every aspect and also turn on "shoot without lens" it does not have autofocus since as I said before is a manual lens. I'm a beginner photographer using a canon Eos R100, got the lens today and did some research and took some pictures to see how it would work. I'm happy with it.
