Love it for video on a gimbal too

How is it as a video lens? (tripod and/or handheld cage). Pros/cons?

Thx,

Havent used it a great deal but i literally mount it as-is on my weebill S and was happy with it.
Easy to balance, happy with the AF and image quality

Thanks.  I've got the lens but have not shot any video with it yet.  It's a nice wide F/L.  Wasn't sure if the (geometric) distortion posed a problem tho.  I might take it in to work to give it a try on my R6 (it'd likely be tripod-mounted).
