After some serious research, I decided to add this lens to my bag. Great lens for the price, offering good value for your money. Lightweight and fast focusing, the sharpness is incredible. The 67mm filter is pretty common so I didn’t have to purchase any new filters. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an ultra wide zoom lens.

I challenge anyone to find a better lens than this the has a wide angle, amazing low light performance and for the price. I did my home work on this one and they mostly run the same price no matter who you check with. I love this lens. The build quality is excellent and the weight distribution is very nice. It feels good in my hands. I know its a little pricey but I am glad I got out of my comfort zone and spent some money on something that I absolutely love.

This is the lens to have for sunset and sunrise photography when shooting in low light. It's also a great close-up lens with it's extremely short focusing distance. I've never adhered to the notion that metal housing is always better. As a landscape photographer who has to often hike to my shooting destination I prefer light weight plastics.
