My opinions on the lens -

Yes, this lens is an unknown brand, i actually found it and it had no focal length or f stop number on it so i was intrigued straight away!

The only thing i could see was that it had markings from 1-10 on the front barrel and the seller said it had aperture blades inside.

I got it and since found it to look like a 60mm f2.8 or so (and no vignette!!)

I see an all-round great performer, without any real detraction from this lens. 10 aperture blades keep the bokeh very nice and mainly smooth in most situations 👌

The lens exhibits a bit of a cooler tone, and has some blueish tint to the shadows 🔵

Sharpness is quite good wide open, and stopped down becomes sharper 📍

Made from full metal and glass, i really wish i knew who made it because i find it to be made very well indeed ☺

Lastly, the lens is very good at flare control, with almost no flare from bright points of light
