Recently bought one of these amazingly cheap completely manual lenses from Amazon Uk (£107) canon fit. Seems to be extremely similar to the Laowa 60mm lens which costs around £350. Build quality seems fine although it does have a rubber focus ring grip and the focus/magnification feels slightly sticky. Optically the lens seems to work fine. I used the canon version on my sony A6000 with adapter. I found the easiest way to use it for natural light shooting was to put the camera into manual mode set the aperture and shutter speed, put the ISO to auto but watch what the ISO values were.
Anyway the shots looked pretty good to me and as such the lens seems amazing value for the money.
Looks identical/very simular to the laowa/venus. The original price seems about the same so you made an awsome deal. That in combination with the A6000 is a killer combo both in term of IQ and price i would say.
The step up from 1:2 on my 4/3 50mm f2 up to 2:1 will give me more flexibility and manual focus is what I mostly use. I even have an adapter, purchased in error, for m4/3. I couldn't justify the Laowa one but this was too good to miss.
Thanks for the recommendation.
(I have just been told that my Laowa 7.5mm and 12mm are on their way).

Nice selection.
