It’s a great lens. Too bad they didn’t improve the distance markings for the Cine version. They’re pretty much useless on the regular version between 0.25m and infinity, especially since infinity is not perfectly calibrated…
Agreed, fantastic lens. Funny thing about the infinity. On my E-PL1, infinity focus was matched perfectly, but on my E-M10, it goes slightly past infinity.
The same lens? Or did you sell one and later bought another one? Anyway, on some samples the back element is not always fully screwed into the lens. This messes up the focus. Mine was going way past infinity. Easy to fix though.
how would I fix this “past-infinity issue”? I have a samyang 12mm where i can turn aprox 3mm past infinity. Infinity lies at the bottom mof the “L-Mark” just below the infinity sign at my lens…
Awaiting moderation again. I guess I shouldn’t say ‘scr*w’ too often. But i did just that, by hand, with the back element. Just tightened it a bit by scr*wing it further into the lens. It was much too loose on mine. Might also work on your lens.
Same lens.
looks like I missed out? Now it’s already $293! (1:43pm US CST)
bummer!
What’s the difference between this and the one that B&H is selling for $239?

This one has declicked aperture and geared ring for external follow-focus; designed for cinema applications. Other than that, checking the two sets of specs on B&H I don’t see much difference.

Yes, that seems to be the extent of the differences. Component lenses are reportedly identical.
