From the moment this lens was released...

...I became intrigued.  I waited and waited and was one of the first lads to order one.  When it arrived I was taken aback in a very positive way at the optical clarity of this lens.  Short of the constant f2-2.8 aperture (which you obviously pay so much more for), this baby can give many of the big boys a run for their money.  No need to have much more expensive glass on my NX cameras as I find this baby to provide superb results.  Images captured by this lens have an almost clinical quality without all the negatives that come with that description.  It's the kind of inexpensive lens that somehow still allows you to see straight through the image to the scene - allowing the viewer to experience a scenario vicariously.  Oftentimes this type of experience was only associated with the expensive glass - but this PZ lens provides the same.
