Having a 50mm and a 35mm already I debated this lens for nearly a year before purchasing it. I will be working as a second shooter for my first wedding in the summer and didn't feel my current lenses would work as well. So far I am very happy with this lens. Especially in low light. It seems much sharper. And I am finally getting the images I see in my mind into the camera. I have also taken some great landscape photos. It is on the heavy side, as other reviewers also said, but definitely sturdy. This was a huge purchase for me but I have no regrets.

This lens is for either an amateur or the professional. The clarity of this lens is so amazing, hardly any editing is required! It’s my absolute favorite lens so far! I would highly recommend it to any photographer, beginning to professional.

The pictures comes out better than I expected. I really like this lens. It allows me to shoot hand held even if my hands shakes.

I have a small studio and this Lense gives me very sharp photos in my limited space. It is awesome for weddings and group shots.

I have used the lens shooting low light in a church and for school spring photos. It has delivered great results.
