Hi,
I found a cheap lens, which is perfectly suit my budget (USD 30), but i can't find any review of the lens. Do someone here use this lens before? Appreciate that you can share your review and experience on it.

Regard
David

...Somewhere here in the PF lens database, I think: This is a re-branding of a lens usually associated with the better known ___?___ name. Check through the d.b. for 28mm/2.8's under "Third Party Lenses -- Primes".

Can't remember, but not Cosina, I think. You'll have to go look... unless someone else can assist. Worth considering if cheap is what you want, if I recall the review(s) correctly.

I've got one a while back very cheap and I did a, sorry I don't know how its called in English, called Blendenreihe in german.
This was just a small test and I have never done this before and I am also new to photography.
I would say my lens gives good results one number after F4. I dont know the exact F numbers so I put a questionmark there.
I will do more images when I have time.
