    Overview

    The Meopta Openar 20mm f/1.8 is a C-mount lens with mixed reviews. Optically, it is described as having 'very mushy image even stopped down' (kds315*), though some users appreciate its character, with one noting the 40mm version had more 'pop' than a more expensive lens (rbelyell). Build and handling are typical for a vintage C-mount lens. It may suit users seeking a unique look for projects like the Raspberry Pi HQ camera (Anonymous), but those prioritizing sharpness should look elsewhere.
