Overview

The Kiron 24mm f/2 MC offers good close-focus performance, surpassing the Minolta 24mm f/2.8 and Tamron Adaptall 24mm f/2.5. It is slightly soft wide open (gasrocks) and exhibits busy bokeh (helimat). Build and handling are not detailed, but it is available in multiple mounts. This lens suits users seeking a fast, affordable 24mm prime for close-up work, though those prioritizing sharpness at f/2 or smooth bokeh may prefer alternatives.
