Overview

The Hanimex 28mm f/2.8 MC Wide angle is a rebranded vintage lens with mixed performance. Optically, it offers acceptable sharpness for its age but with a noticeable vintage quality, though not as sharp as modern lenses. Weaknesses include potential aperture coupling issues, where the aperture changes with focus, and possible front element damage. Build quality is decent, with smooth mechanical feel. It suits street photography on crop sensors, but landscape results may suffer due to aperture quirks. One reviewer calls it possibly the worst lens in the world.
