Note that these specs do not materially affect image quality during normal shooting conditions. World class lens for portrait and low light shooting. Marked depth of field scale. Key Features. Close focuses to 0.95m (3.1ft).
Good value and a must, especially for portrait photographers.
Good condition as described. Slight slow focusing as expected because of the heavy glass. But since I use it mostly for slow subjects like portraits - not an issue. Must be very careful when mounting or un-mounting as the rear glass element is way to the top - kind of flush with the mount. Also manual focus difficult due to very free/loose rotating focus ring. Challenging to shoot at full open 1.2 due to very narrow depth of field. I find it sharp at any aperture. Although some may argue that stepping up to 1.8 or 2.0 is sharper - more so I think it is because of the depth of field and ease of focus rather than sharpness. Some may also note of chromatic aberration at wider open - but i think it is more pronounced due to more light (direction) coming in. This can be controlled through managing the direction, flares etc. of light. Expensive lens like these I recommend better to buy used ones from reputed retailers.
