    I bought this lens to shoot sports and indoors without flash as an alternative to my heavy telephoto lenses. I can shoot all the way across a hockey rink or basketball court and then crop the pic for a perfect news photo. It is, though a little difficult to use at intimate events, like a store opening or charity wine-tasting because it can't be adjusted for close ups. Still I LOVE this lens and the price could not be beat. It is my go-to for sports coverage when I don't want to lug around a 3-pound telescopic model.

    After seeing the amazing reviews and pictures taken with this lens, I decided to purchase. So glad I did, I’ve gotten so many good shots so far! Highly recommend this lens for a second lens to the kit lens the canons come with.

    This lens is a must to have. I use it all the times for portraits and flowers. It is also great at night time.I carry it around and so convenient to capture sharp image with beautiful bokeh. It works well on my Canon 80D.
