Pros:
Sharp,light and fun to use.
Cons:
No way to attach a front filter
I have found this lens a real fun thing to use......love it
The fisheye results (can be corrected with software) are not everyone's cup of tea but for me it just adds something a little different to my photography.
The build is OK and light enough to carry in my bag with the only negative being that no protective front filter can be attached.
