Fantastic manual 35mm Lens for Sony Full frame!
This Pergear 35mm lens is easy to focus and produces really nice images.I’ve been using the lens on my Sony a7riii and I am impressed with the colors & photos. Highly recommend!

A very nice lens.
I use this lens on a "Full Frame" Sony camera. I have modern lenses and film era ones too but I fancied some new cheap manual lenses just for fun and this was one of the lenses I bought and I'm impressed.The build quality seem to be good with no mechanical sloppiness and the aperture and focus rings are nice to use but the focus does go beyond infinity and that is a little disappointing but this is how many lenses are and although it's a gripe of mine I don't regret buying the lens because of this. At f1.4 it's a little soft but still perfectly useable depending on how fussy you are and resistance to flare seems to be good as I haven't used the hood so far and haven't noticed any issues. Some may not like the bokeh and might be disappointed by performance at f1.4 but I really don't know how much better we can expect in such a small and cheap lens. A review I read highlighted field curvature but in many real world non test situations this possibly wont be an issue depending on how picky you are.The close focusing ability is quite good and I have some 67mm close up filters so I bought a step up ring so that I could use them with this lens and they seem to work well together.I think this lens is very good value and very good quality for the money. I wish they did a similar 50mm f1.4. I do also have the TTartisan 50mm f2 which is a very cheap lens but this Pergear is in my opinion the better lens.All in all, I'm very happy.

A tiny, cheap, fairly good full-frame 35mm f/1.4
This lens is really small, cheap, and well made, with quite smooth feel to manual focus. This lens is not capable of autofocus nor does it have electronic connection to the camera to automatically control the aperture setting or inform the camera of the focal length and aperture setting. The two photos shown here were taken with the pergear 35mm f/1.4 wide open on my Sony A7RII, and it is difficult to fault either of them. The bokeh are good, flare handling isn't terrible, and there is plenty of resolution across an APS-C crop, but full-frame performance suffers a bit:* Corners wide open are at least 2 stops darker than ideal* There is some field curvature near frame corners wide open* The extreme corners are mush wide open; they sharpen up around f/8The second shot probably looks a little better than the first because I used Sony's Lens Compensation app in the A7RII to correct with +14 peripheral shading, +1 blue color, and -3 distortion. In both cases, I manually set the A7RII focal length to 35mm so IBIS (in body image stabilization) can compensate for any shake.Bottom line: it's not my favorite lens, but it is very useful, tiny, and pleasant to use, so I bring and use it a lot. It is OK for landscapes when stopped down, but really shines when used wide open to show the bokeh in environmental portraits and close-up shots. Although various old 35mm lenses are sharper, they tend to be slower and most produce poorer bokeh. This lens is an unbeatably good new optic for the price...
