I hate posting images right after Peire (because mine are not nearly as good), but here goes. Just received the 14mm a month after ordering it (on AE), but pretty happy with the results so far. Perspective distortion was corrected in post, so the extreme bottom corners were filled in PS (in case you look down there).

This lens is now on sale for $159! Temptation has a new name!
All the pictures posted here so far have been breathtakingly sharp!
Kudos to Viltrox and to the shooters!

Got mine about a week ago. Got a credit due to the price drop. Took it to the beautiful George Peabody Library (Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University) this morning for a quick spin, all handheld, tripod is not allowed. I shot this library with my CV 12 in the past.

Excellent, Douglas! The performance to price ratio for this lens is very high.
Thank you Eric! It's so much lighter than the CV 15. But the CV lenses have that Rolex precision and solid feel though... I guess at the end of the day, if the image quality is good, that's what counts the most. I don't shoot this wide often but it's nice to have it in the bag just in case, it's so tiny and light.
