On focusing the whole lens rotates and while I am usually not a big fan of focus tabs here the small lever comes in handy. It rotates ~120\u00b0 from the minimum focus distance (0.5m) to infinity. The lens is rangefinder coupled between 0.8 m and infinity.<\/p>\n<p>Setting the desired aperture is a bit fiddly as the whole inner ring (including all the markings) serves as aperture ring. There are two grooves, but especially with big hands it remains fiddly and there are also no click stops.

I am clearly not a fan of generalization and the <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-ms-optics-aporis-135mm-2-4-fluorit-mc\/\">Aporis 2.4\/135<\/a> was already a good example what Miyazaki is capable of and that this is not always the case. Nevertheless my expectations of a 45g &#8220;heavy&#8221; 24mm lens with a maximum aperture of f\/2.0 were not that high.<\/p>\n<p>Handling sure is quirky: the whole lens barrel rotates, setting the aperture takes some fiddling and good luck finding a 34mm polarizer&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>But optically, the MS-Optics 24mm 2.0 Aporia is more useful than anyone should expect given its size: it sharpens up nicely across frame stopped down, loCA are corrected surprisingly well, the bokeh is of the overcorrected SA type at f\/2.0 and f\/2.8, but hardly worse than e.g. a <a href=\"https:\/\/phillipreeve.net\/blog\/review-zeiss-loxia-35mm-2-0\/\">Zeiss Biogon 2\/35<\/a>, Astigmatism is low, so it is sharp at focus point at f\/2.0, vignetting is very high at f\/2.0, but stopped down no worse than other compact (meaning: significantly bigger) rangefinder lenses and it even focuses down to 0.5 m.<\/p>\n<p>Still, this is of course not a bread-and-butter lens. You have to work around its limitations. You don&#8217;t buy this because you need a 24mm lens for your job, you buy it because you want it, because you find the form factor appealing, because it looks cool on your Leica camera, because you want something different from the &#8220;mainstream&#8221; lenses or simply because you enjoy the idea of a single guy in Japan making these odd lenses that no one else is making.<\/p>\n<p>Lenses like this are the reason I am keeping the Leica M10.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>As a Sony user<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26789\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26789\" style=\"width:
