    Awesome lens, great quality and affordable. I would suggest getting a 49mm polarizer with the lens which is also affordable.

    I needed a basic everyday lens as my previous one that had zoom was stolen. I have a new grandchild and wanted to take pictures often as they grow up so fast. This lens has filled the bill. I'm not a novice but don't know much about the fancy stuff. I am very pleased with the lens.
