I saw this lens on Black Friday for $479 and decided to bite.
I have not used it extensively, but wanted to post some general feedback on it.
The good:
-Extremely well built. Very solid metal and glass.
-size - it's smaller (though heavier) than the Zeiss batis 18mm. This lens is about the same size as the FE 28mm f2.
-circular 10 blade aperture. OOF areas are generally rendered quite pleasantly.
-geared focus ring
-center is very sharp, even at 2.8
the bad:
-corners not sharp at 2.8. They clean up as you stop down, but aren't great until f8 or so.
-no electric connection for exif data.
-no bag/case (at this price though, whatever)
-vignetting almost the whole way through the aperture range.
-no LR lens profile yet
