Latest Review Posted | Vivitar Auto-aperture MC close-focusing 24mm F2.8 A competent little lens - nothing amazing, just chugs along.
Build is okay on mine - maybe a little more wobble than I'd like, and the manual focus feel isn't the best: it's not bad, just doesn't give quite the connection I'd like (like a takumar would!).
IQ wise, it's not bad: wideopen is the usual unsharp, low contrast deal, but usable in a pinch. Stopping down, nice sharpness and contrast come through. Colours though aren't very exciting - definitely not as nice or saturated as pentax SMC lenses!
Focuses down to 0.19m (~8"), which is handy, even if not a true macro. |
