    This was an addition to the camera we bought for a birthday gift. Talk about over joyed, more like over the moon.

    I wanted something that was still portable and fun to take with on nature hikes. It performs great! I use it with my Canon EOS Rebel SL2

    Bought this lens for my wife. I was a little reluctant because I do not know much about camera lenses. My wife absolutely loves it. She's the camera person and understands the different settings.

    I bought this as a second add on for my camera and I'm so glad I did. If I can't use my other one I switch to this and it does wonders for the photos.
