All hail to Nasim Mansurov, who can make a shitty lens look really good with his photography skills!
On a serious note, really enjoyed your review and the images. OK, to be perfectly honest, I didn’t read the review and only looked at the images :D Judging from most of the images, the sharpness in the corners seems to be something I could live with. Fun!
Benny LOL, thank you for the kind words. I really enjoyed shooting with the Laowa 10-18mm, it is a pretty small and cool lens to use. You are right, the corners don’t seem so bad when you sharpen them in post and crop a little!
good Mt Evans shots; i hope to get there this weekend
Thank you Frank! Mt Evans is awesome. We didn’t see any baby goats that day unfortunately! It was also very very windy – at some point I almost fell due to an extreme gust that knocked my body!

Vintage Nasim, vintage PL. 🙄
Frank, couldn’t understand your comment. You mean vintage F mount lenses? :)
A minor thing: 0.15 cm=1.5 mm. That seems to be wrong for the minimum distance. Thank You.
Thank you Radu, I fixed the typo. The minimum focus distance is 150mm.
Excluse me for the second post, it was a failure on my net.
