Impressive example. Good point! Admittedly reviews aren't always the best guide. I agree looking at sample images from many users is a more reliable approach.
For nightscapes I think coma and chromatic aberration wide open are the 2 key critical performance criteria which is different to daylight terrestial imaging. There's not much you can do about coma except stop down. Chromatic aberration is correctable but always leaves a degraded image to some degree being a desaturation routine. Vignetting is easy to correct. Not many lenses perform wide open and are widefield. So that was my main point.
How does this lens do from that viewpoint?
