    I’m growing to hate it- I have had major focus issues with this lens. It’s reliability is very unpredictable. I’ve calibrated several times with no luck. When it cooperates the portraits are amazing, but most of the time, it it’s terrible. I find I have to shoot twice as many shots because every other one will be out of focus. I end up ditching it for my Sigma 35 or my 50.

    I've only used this lens a little but so far the images are crisp and clear even wide open. Another good prime for the quiver.
