    The focus is very fast and accurate for photography but the manual focus is slow being that it is a focus by wire system , ending up having to return it.

    I read a lot and did a lot of research before buying this lens and I'm really happy I did. I love using it for portraits (generally of my cats) and the pictures always come out so great.

    It served its purpose (bokeh). Since is doesn't have any stabilization, it doesn't work well using slower shutter speeds unless you have a stand.
