To be completely honest when I was offered this lens to review, I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. I knew it was a completely manual lens and I was fine with that. I have been using Lensbaby lenses for years now. But I didn't think the Simera was a 'creative' lens as such. Being 28mm it is more of a wide-angle lens, but it doesn't really behave like a wide-angle like my Sony 16-35mm. Still I totally enjoyed my time playing with this lens, the more I used it the more confident and comfortable I became.
