    I love this lens. It is very clean and sharp. I ended up returning it because I bought the 24-70 2.8 II. That lens covers the 50mm range. I also found out that my old Canon DSLR would not automatically retract the lens when the camera turned off. My Canon 5D IV has the function to auto retract, but, I wanted to use it on my old camera.
