Sort of better in the flesh than in pictures I think. Well it does make
really sharp and high quality images in the equivalent of a classic focal
length. Seems excellent against the light too. Inevitably you get the
constrainsts of the 24 when you are in close though. It was also apparently
the fastest lens that they could shoehorn in there for the sensor format
while staying in the (smaller than LTM) form factor.
