Customers are saying

Many appreciate its affordability and how lightweight and compact it is. However, some customers note that the autofocus could be improved, and some have mentioned that it produces some noticeable noise. The lens is generally well-regarded for its performance and value.

    I use this all the time. The aperture makes it great for that “blurry” background look.
