Slr magic or not?

[Iestrada]

What are your thoughts on the slr magic 23mm f1.7 lens for the x mount?

Praises downfalls? In particular in use for street photography with zone focusing.

I like mine, bought from another RFFer, very much. I can't address the zone/street question b/c I have not used it that way, but it has a short well-damped throw and very very close focus. No clicks make it video friendly, I suppose, but I don't need clicks on every lens anyway.

Here are a few images to help gauge IQ.
