    Gorgeous Milky Way Lens
    5 Stars
    Gorgeous Milky Way Lens
    I did a lot of lens research after moving into the Z system (Z6ii) as I love to shoot the Milky Way. It was between this and the 14-24 2.8. Besides the cost difference, I loved the additional light that the 1.8 could bring. This lens also got great reviews everywhere, and after using it, I can see why. Even wide open at 1.8, I’m very happy with coma, ca, corners, etc. I was worried about focus by wire, and while I don’t love it, I’ve found the adjustment to be easier than expected. Results are light years beyond my crop sensor days. I would easily recommend this lens for anyone with similar interests.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The landscape and astrophotography lens for the Z system
    Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2020
    Very sharp, very-good coma characteristics. Light weight and takes filters. If you do a lot of landscape photography this is a fantastic lens. I reach for this more than the Sigma 14mm 1.8 art lens which is wider and allows for longer exposures of the milky way, and I reach for this more than the Sigma 40mm 1.4 art and Nikon 50mm 1.8 s lens which have (slightly) better coma performance wide open but not always the right view for captures with a lot of the milky way galactic core and arm. I'm very much a beginner but this lens really opens up a lot of possibilities.

    Reviewed in India on December 16, 2023
    The lens box felt like it was opened earlier further the country of Origin was Taiwan (as advertised) but the lens I received had the country of origin - China.
    I could not return the lens as I had a journey next day and I had to carry that lens.
    Excellent lens but not the seller. Thus, before getting this kind of products online just check your nearby stores for brand new lens and sealed box packing. I do not feel its a new lens but I had no other option.
