Closest focus
is only 20cm from outermost edge of the lens, F 8. Focus on the program wheel of the camera.

A very nice lens, even wide open. Even at F 2.8 it's quite good, just some flare towards the edges. Stopped down it's very good in my opinion. It has good capabilities of close focussing for such a wide lens. Carefully aligned there is no distortion. It's bigger and heavier than the Cosina.
