And some test shots to show swirl, bokeh and vignette:






A bit of black & white:

Odd looking shots, but in a very interesting way! Thanks!

That's a lens with 'artistic' uses, if you know what you want - that't the lens for the job. I like a lot of those pictures though, the effect is good.

Hmm.

Thats a projection lens for 16mm. And quite common and cheap too.
Very good option for a Petzval.

Any idea of the back focus from the rear element ?

Seems to work very well on the Nex.

Thanks! Indeed it suits NEX well. M4/3 would work similar. The rear of the lens is big enough to enter mount and sits (stops) on NEX plastic pre-shutter area soon after infinity.
