dont expect too much with this lens its not sharp at all not difficult to find the sweet spot but the focused image is never too sharp and there is color distortion lansbaby optics technology falls short

Works Well

Works well on my Olympus MFT body, as expected produces peripheral blur with center in sharp focus. I find the effect of the bokeh blades to be very subtle and difficult to see. I only wish the lens had a variable aperture like the Sweet series optics. This one has a fixed f/3.5 aperture. May need a polarizer or ND filter to block some light when shooting in very bright situations.

Really great for shift and tilt selective focus effects

I was wanting some lower cost shift and tilt lens options for my Panasonic GH5s and found this lens through B&H Photo. I was really impressed with this 22mm lens. It punches well above its weight. The construction of the lens is solid and it is super easy to manipulate for great shallow focus effects. A really great addition to my kit.

In a word: FUN!

This is a great little lens to add to my collection. Really helps expand my creativity and it's so fun to use! As a Micro Four Thirds user, it's harder to get bokeh, so the exaggerated bokeh effects from this lens is great. It's very well constructed and the focus ring is smooth an precise. The images are soft and dreamy, but the in focus area is reasonably sharp. The bokeh blades are an interesting idea, but I haven't gotten much effects from them yet. The only slight drawback is that this lens is a bit large for m4/3, but that's understandable as it's adapted from APS-C.
