If you like the Ricoh GRIII then you might love this lens. It’s extremely similar except the GR III is sharper in the corners. It also has a lot of vignetting just the like GR III.
I personally wish the made the lens a little bit bigger which would have increased corner sharpness and perhaps allowed it to have a better autofocus motor/performance.
