It has been mentioned a couple of times. I like it, but it's a bit large 
for some people. A Summicron it ain't...

Having said that, the focus is *very* short-throw and fast, and it's pretty 
good at mid apertures, if a little soft wide open. A good lens, if like me 
you can't afford the real thing.
