So this is what $68 (on sale $59) can give you:

That was unexpected and, frankly, hard to guess unless one did a search what lenses actually cost exactly $68.

Rover you missed this!!!!

Shame on me. Guess I let the reins go too early.

Pergear is a private label, not a manufacturer's brand. The name of the distributor owning and using it is Emgreat Tech Co., Ltd., a Chinese company based in Shenzhen.

The same lens is available under the Andoer label.

LOL. You can't imagine how often I wrote that before correcting it ;-)

U sure about that? Emgreat is the 7Artisans seller over at Amazon. And the 7Artisans 25mm f/1.8 is different from the Pergear.

The colours are particularly unattractive in the sample images. Is that a camera thing, a camera + RAW converter thing, or more a lens thing?

I think this is more related to the area. The earth colors are particularily muddy there.
