Using it on Fuji X system with an adapter, I am not really taking the advantage on the pancake size, but my intention to buy this lens was purely on both the built and image quality. 40mm is an interesting transition focal length which also I was after on a cropped sensor camera. It is a true multi purpose travel lens to cover that mid range, to me perfect for street photography.

Perfect focal length for 80 of what I photograph. Like it's size and construction and quality. The manual focus aspect is not a problem as the throw is not that large and it's got the right amount of tension so you can hit your focus easily without going past it. I recommend this lens of prime lens shooters.

This lens has no equivalent in manual lenses for Nikon;it fits perfectly with professional or expert cameras ( you only have to focus) and the quality of pictures is .....perfect.My best buy in lenses ever the only lens i'd keep with my D300s if i had to choose.
Carrying a slr is heavy for casual shooting. This pancake is really good lense for that purpose with 40mm focal Hope it was not discontinued...

Sharp, contrasty, and high resolution. Extremely well built and easy to focus. I nailed every shot I took with this lens.
