I like it. Great lens!Pros:-Sharp-Excellent image quality-Great color reproduction-Well packaged-Good material build quality-Lens hood is sturdy-Lens storage pouch is appreciated-Aperture ring is buttery smoothCons:-Very heavy-Focusing ring makes a dragging noise whenever I turn the focusing ring to focus.-Due to the location of the aperture ring, it’s easy to accidently change it with your palm when trying to use the focus ring.

A really great lens for a great price A really great lens for a great price. I got the Micro 4/3 mount version of this lens, and am quite happy with it. The picture quality is pretty sharp, even when shot wide open at T1.5. The action on the focus and aperture rings are both very smooth. The build quality of the lens itself is excellent, with solid materials and a heft weight. The lens hood is a bit cheap feeling, but that doesn’t bother me. I would very much recommend this lens to any aspiring videographer/photographer who can’t afford the way more expensive Cine-lenses. I’ve attached a few test shots.
