In the case of the tested Mitakon you focus by moving a ring which turns very smoothly and has a working range of 180 degrees. You are also helped by a clear depth of field scale which can be found on the body of the lens.

As the Mitakon is devoid of any contacts moving the ring doesn’t automatically enlarge the image in your camera’s viewfinder. The focus peaking function works in the enlarged image but only after you switch that enlargement on with one of the function buttons and even then the focusing near the maximum relative aperture is hardly easy.
