I own this lens since 2 weeks and find it's a really little gem.
Adapted on my 24x36 DSLR (EOS Canon 5D) the results are very sharp even at f/2.8.

I was looking for a light and luminous wide angle, allowing short depth of field (I've a very good 17-40mm f/4 but was looking for a wide lens with something different...). No noticeable chromatic aberrations, very nice colors rendition. Some vignetting at f/2.8 : I like this effect.

Great for landscapes, handheld night shots and interior photos. Some distorsions for architecture work, but can be easily corrected by softwares like GIMP or PTLens plugin.

Highly recommended on 24x36!

Stunning little lens, I have used the Nikkor 24, Zeiss 25, Canon 24L. This is my fave, nice colors, and has the least issues on edges and corners compared to the others.
