Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC Lens For Nikon with AE Chip

shows promise but my copy fatally flawed
Nicely built. My copy had excellent sharpness in the center and right side of the frame but left side was very blurred. In addition, infinity focus was at 2M focus mark. Apparently many others have experienced the infinity focus problem. Exchanged hoping to get a good copy.
