Seems fine; the reviews are not authoritative, but substantial in their detail. Enough to warrant their use.

Detailed, but if we are going to be technical graphs showing the aberrations, etc. should be included for FA level.

Hard not to be neutral on this, right? Zomg, best lens ever. /sarcasm
Y
Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

No edit wars.

Pass, this is very detailed and encyclopedic. For improving this to FA level I would consider adding the graphs covering its use and perhaps going into a little more technical on the details, but nothing is lacking and all the important pieces are covered already.
Discussion
The websites linked were very interesting, showing a great deal of differences between the lenses. And I know this isn't a copy vio, but the wording of, "This is the first ultra wide zoom lens with a minimum focal length of 8mm, designed specifically for APS-C size image sensors." versus "It is the first ultra wide rectilinear (non-fisheye lens) zoom lens with a minimum focal length of 8mm, designed specifically for APS-C size image sensors." Seems a tad close, but technically there is little rearranging you can do without garbling the meaning. Good job. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 23:29, 13 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Additional Notes
^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
^This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
^Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
