I would agree that the build quality is second to none. I've certainly never owned or used a lens that felt more solid and well-constructed. The sharpness is astounding and the "feel" of the lens when you're focusing is so precise that it's not too hard to nail the perfect shot. If you want your background to be buttery-creamy and just melt away, this is the lens for you.

I'll echo what others have said, it's build is superb. If it wasn't for the styling I'd think it was made by Nikon.

Alas, the Achilles' heel of the Bokina; the dreaded stray light. A hood is more or less a must, unless you have the sun behind you.
An other "drawback" of the Bokina is that it exposes missed focus or too narrow depth of field (click for full-res):
The wings are in focus whereas the head is not. I should have stopped down a bit, this was wide open...

At the same time, f/2.5 allows for great portraits! |

Fantastic, but big and friggin heavy. Once I realised this was equally sharp for landscape work, it stayed home just for macro.
