    Cons: Noticeable vignetting, soft corners, no AF but not really necessary. I have it set at 10ft f5.6. If I am doing a closeup I use the focus magnifier.

    Pros: Very sharp and contrasty, corners sharpen almost to match center, nearly rectilinear, very small, excellent construction.

    Summary: Best available at this time. I just returned an Olympus 9-18, only sharp in center at any aperture, severe CA, maybe a bad copy, not nearly as wide as the Laowa 7.5.
