MIR-20 20MM F3.5 (bad Copy)
MIR-20 20MM F3.5
This lens has so much character I absolutely loved the way it rendered colors and the chromatic aberrations. This copy of the lens was bought on eBay and was modified to have an EF mount. Unfortunately as you can see in the photos something wasn’t right and I could see the edges of the lens barrel in the corners of the image. I had to return this copy but I look forward to picking up another copy in the future. The Mir-20 was based on the optical design of the Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 20mm f2.8. However, I much prefer the character of the less optically perfect Mir-20.
