A perfect distance and low light lens
Bought this lens for my daughter, who was taking photos of a high school band during competitions and on Friday night football games. Unbelievable clarity and quality and low light situations. Amazing during the daytime as well. For novice and beginners this lens is very forgiving.

Light and sharp
Five stars for weight, price and sharpness. The programmable focusing ring is a plus. The only concern is how well this lens will hold up with heavy use over time.

Great entry level for wildlife or portraits!
An overall great lens for the price, clear images, and normal skin tones! Haven't had any issues with the autofocus, they work just as they are supposed to.
