    Overview

    The Chinon 45mm f/2.8 lens offers decent sharpness in the center but suffers from soft corners and noticeable chromatic aberration, according to dpreview.com. Build quality is typical of budget lenses, with a plastic construction and smooth focus ring. It is best suited for casual photographers seeking a compact, lightweight prime for general use, but those requiring edge-to-edge sharpness may be disappointed.
