    I love this lens. I use it on a T7i so it magnifies a little extra due to it being a full frame lens on a crop sensor camera. Excellent for portraits!

    My son does automotive photography and he says this lens is perfect for the job. You definitely need to buy a circular polarizer for it but other than that, he says you're good to go.

    This is my first lens purchase and I am more than happy. Bought this for a trip and was budget constrained, so got this and it did not disappoint. Amazing Bokeh!

    This is the #1 lens that has been recommended to me by my photography friends. While on vacation I finally splurged on it and was not disappointed. I got great pictures with sharp details.

    It's easy to get sidetracked with the complexity surrounding lenses. So it was with a bit of trepidation that I purchased this lens. No need to worry - it takes shockingly good pictures.

    This lens is great for beginners and hobbyist. Price is great especially if you have rewards to use on it. Pictures are very clear and crisp. Lens is very well built and size makes it easy to carry or fit into any bag. It takes some getting used to because it's wider than the usual kit zoom lenses that cameras usually come with. But with practice you can achieve a lot with this lens.

    I’m no professional but I’m tire of “editing” pics to get that bokeh look. Did some research and it shows that this lens does it in one shot. I’ve just purchased it month April 2020 and hadn’t really had much time with it yet so I can’t really say. One con about this lens is u can’t zoom in/out keep that in mind.

    This is a very good lens with excellent pricing. My first use produced a clear picture with a slightly blurred background of my cat and dog lying down in the bushes.
