    35mm · f/2.8

    Overview

    The Beroflex Auto W.W. 35mm f/2.8 is a mixed bag. Optically, it offers nice bokeh and character (Jozef_AV), but suffers from poor sharpness—half the frame is soft even at f/8—and heavy chromatic aberration. Build is bulky and ugly (Jozef_AV), with a minimum focus distance of 0.5m requiring an M42 helicoid (Jozef_AV). It suits photographers prioritizing bokeh over sharpness or build quality, but is not recommended for general use.
