Price paid 2017 --> 15 Euros
The lens (last photo from allphotolenses.com)
Expect the color rendering, there is nothing fantastic about this lens.
Not for landscape work at all, it could be use for B&W street photography where edge doesn't really matter.
I found the lens soft @ 35 and 50mm. corner are not good as well, a little better @ 70mm.
Prime are far more better, the Olympus 35-70mm 3.6 is far more better, but remember, this lens is real cheap and is usable if you don't mind the corner.
The macro mode is OK.
Construction is not great, all plastic...
Tested on Sony A7, real life photos, jpg straight from camera.

PENTAX-M Macro 50mm f4
Price paid 2018 --> 40 euros
The lens
I really like this lens, construction is solid, focusing is smooth, center is very sharp, corners are sharp enough. I enjoyed the macro mode ratio 1:2 producing wonderful image full of details.
To sum up this is a very good lens.
Tested on Sony A7 photos straight from the camera.
