cheaper than i thought. tempting if the autofocus is smooth

Undone says breathing is pretty bad. And it looks bad. The focus itself, however, is nearly instantaneous.

Other reviews are a bit more positive, especially in the stills realm.
 
yeah the breathing looks bad. but not necessarily a deal breaker for me personally.

more importantly - the autofocus doesn't step discretely through the range like the sigma 35 f/1.2 does. although i think the rendering on that lens looked a bit nicer than this one
 
What a shame. All these video and video-first cameras from Sony released alongside lenses with awful breathing. Some of those lenses even have de-clicked aperture control!
 
And now there's a whole lot of less terrific, but with less breathing, primes.

Le$$ too.
