The image quality is great, it is a manual focus lens, so you will have to remember, or write down what your lens settings were, if you like to document those things. There is a little vignetting wide open, so stop down to f/4 or 5.6 to get rid of that, but I tend to add a bit of it in post anyway, so it doesn't bother me. It's sharp when you hit focus, but trying to focus on moving subjects is tricky. It has a very close minimum focus distance and the near range of focus takes up a lot of the focus ring's real estate.
Speaking of real estate, you could definitely use this lens for that purpose. The reason is this is NOT a fisheye lens, those warp all lines to be sort of round, and not straight. This lens keeps straight lines intact, so very little post processing is needed.
It's a great little lens that is always in my bag.

It's a manual focus lens only with manual focus and manual aperture, the scales are fairly accurate with depth of field markers on the top to help you with zone focusing. The focusing ring is a little stiff for my liking but is smooth and the aperture ring has hard stops.
A permanent addition to my kit.
