| Latest Review Posted | SMC Pentax 18mm F3.5
I must say, I was a little disappointed with this lens (sold it rather quickly). I heard so many glowing reviews about this cult lens and was very excited to use it. Long story short, it was noticeably softer than my M20/4 (although the m20/4 has quite a bit more distortion than the 18mm). Maybe my copy of the 18 was a dog (or maybe my copy of the 20 is better than average). If you are looking for a low distortion ultrawide this is the lens for you. If you are looking for a sharp ultrawide for candids I would pass. In any case, I think that the lens is overrated and does not deserve the price premium that it often fetches on the 2nd hand market. |
