<<<The lens is a 8-25mm f/4 PRO lens. In terms of design and build quality, it
is similar to the 7-14mm f/2.8 lens. What they got right is that it now can
use screw-in filters.
I wasn't smitten by the 7-14/2.8 when I rented it for astro. The new guy is
too slow for some applications. I don't see any comparisons yet to the PL 8-18
which is 2.8 at the short end and thus can be used for astro in a pinch. I hope
someone does a comparison.
