    The quality of this lense is amazing, the autofocus is not bad at all either, if you cant afford the G master, this is a great option

    Purched this lens after viewing a few reviews,...for the price point of under $600 it's one of the most ideal lenses for portraits.

    Nice bokeh on this lens. The only reason to spend more for the 1.4 g master is if you are a pro that does lots of portraits.

    I really liked this lens but instead opted for the G Master version. This is the way to go for the price point.

    A great lens for the budget. Not as clean and in-depth as the 1.4GM. But good.
