From the editor

A Chinese clone of the Canon EF 35/2: same optical design, similar design of the lens barrel, 55g lighter, 16mm longer, 7 aperture blades instead of 5.

During focusing, the front element extends beyond the lens barrel by approximately 5mm. During autofocus, the manual focusing ring rotates and should not be touched, otherwise the micromotor may be damaged.
