I've been using this lens for a while. It's definitely an exemplary piece. Its metal construction gives it a durable feel, and its lightness is a boon for photographers on the move. The focusing speed is impressively fast compared to my old Nikon 85 1.8G. Additionally, its performance in low-light conditions is excellent, making it a reliable choice.
@kieranhayesphotography its just going back and front...back and front... if at f4 is doing a little focus search at f8 is doing a longer search...is like is nothing to focus even if is outside in the city
@omulcufermoar definitely reach out there them, sounds like your lens is faulty unfortunately. Does it work ok below F4? Can you still see a blurred image through the EVF at F4?
@kieranhayesphotography f2-f2.8 perfect sharp.... i really love the quality but after 3.5 is starts slowly to search the focus back and front like on a small portion..but as you increase the F...is searches the focus on a bigger portion.( like if on f4 is searching lets say on a 1mm portion back and front.. at f8 is doing it on 8-10mm portion ) going back and front back and front not stopping for 1 second

Hi David, I couldn't agree more with you. It's a fantastic lens and incredible value for money. It has been a joy using it.
Lens looks like it has great character! A great choice for anyone starting off… nice review!
Hi Stew, thanks for that and yes it does. It has bucket loads of it.
So nice to see lenses like this being made.
Thank you for this great in-depth review 😊
Thanks for watching and for the kind words 😉

That doesn't sound right at all. Did you contact them and report it? Sounds like you have a fault there.
