Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the product's excellent sharpness across the entire frame, which is a highly praised feature. Many also appreciate its great build quality, reasonable price, and relatively light weight, alongside its good low light performance and preferred focal length. However, a few users have reported that the focusing can be loud.

    The best value z lens, especially compared to its cousin the 50 f/1.2. You get 95% of the performance for 25% of the price. I use the lens on my Z9.
