The mirrorless world isn’t know for “affordable” lenses that are really worthwhile. This isn’t one of those times though. This lens competes really well with lenses double and triple its price. The bokeh is fantastic. It performs well in the portrait world.

A beautiful lens that is great for portraits. I know it’s not a prime lens so the quality isn’t top tier but it’s great for a “budget” lens. I use it more than my 50mm
