There's not really much more you can ask for a 40mm lens at this price point, and it'll be really useful for all kinds of different photography situations, so it does come recommended.

By the end of my time testing it, I was eventually convinced to forgive it for its huge price, and so I can safely say that it does come highly recommended.
It's a surprisingly accomplished lens really, and if you can look beyond its dark aperture, it does come highly recommended.
There are one or two other little image quality niggles that prevent me from highly recommending it at its rather high price point, but it's still really capable and enjoyable to use, so it does come recommended.
It makes this Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary a viable and affordable upgrade to whatever cheap zoomable kit lens you might currently be using.
This lens is a cheap way to get some potentially nice and sharp macro images out of your mirrorless camera.
[T]his Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 CF APO is a very well done optic.
[T]his is an absolutely excellent 50mm macro lens from Nikon, brilliantly sharp with lovely colors and contrast and no image quality issues at all.
Ultimately though, this Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN Sports lens is a nice little upgrade over their older 150-600 lenses, which were already pretty good, so it's a brilliant option for all kinds of telephoto work which comes highly recommended.
This is the very best macro lens I've tested so far on this YouTube channel, and I've handled a huge number of them.
[F]or anyone looking for a nicely handling lens in the smallest Size possible with a good long reach, I can recommend it.
[W]hat a completely awesome telephoto zoom lens.
[T]he Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD offers a decent enough performance for its price and it's good to see a lower budget 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD full-frame lens out there for Sony shooters, it can produce fairly sharp images and there are no serious image quality [...]
My initial impression from looking at test charts is that the Sigma lens is a bit sharper, but overall this new lens from them is a nice package, especially for people like me who like to use compact size full-frame lenses, so it does come recommended.
It's small, lightweight, nice and sharp, and it has no serious image quality problems at all.
[F]or anyone whose priority in a Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM lens is deadly sharpness and nice handling, it certainly does come recommended.
The conclusion I'm reaching about this ultra wide-angle zoom lens is that it is more or less the best I've ever seen so far.
The Canon EOS R5 may not have been marketed perfectly, but I'm pretty confident that in 3 or 4 months time that'll all be water under the bridge and people will come to realize further what an excellent camera it is, especially for stills work.
It's very expensive; prices hard to swallow too, especially considering that it doesn't have its own image stabilization, but overall this is a lens for professional uses like wedding photography or journalism where it will really shine.
The Nikon Z7 is a really expensive piece of kit, but a very accomplished one, and I'm having a great time testing it out so far.
There's not much more to say other than that the Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS is just about the perfect macro lens.
This Sony lens can potentially get you very good quality, detailed images if used within its limitations, but at an alarming cost of over 1,000, it's badly overpriced. And so, because of its poor value for money, I can't quite bring myself to recommend it.
[T]he Zeiss 24-70 zoom lens had some real issues: poor image quality at 70, wild distortion levels, and heavy vignetting.
[I]'m pleased to say that the Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM is frankly a no-brainer for EOS M camera owners, a bit like the 22mm f/2 lens really, only even better.
