I'm very happy with this lens. It's solid metal so heavier than normal lens. Color and sharpness are much better than other brands. If you aren't comfortable with manual lens, then get a manual focus screen for your camera. Not sure all the camera brands make these or not, but this screen makes manual lens so much easier to use.

Every now and then a product comes along that eclipses everything else in its class ... such is the Zeiss 21mm Distagon f/2.8. This lens is sharp to the corners wide open where other super wide angle lenses are mush. The color correction of this lens is extraordinary ... virtually no fringing nor ghosts ... even at the edges of the field. Of note to astroimagers ... this lens has an infinity stop ... no fumbling for focus in the dark. It is a solid lens ... all metal construction. It has a nine blade diaphram that makes beautiful out-of-focus detail ... in short ... this is a superlative product worth every penny of the price. Highly recommended.
