    Perfect Lens for portraits and close ups. Don’t expect to be taking landscape of bug family photos with this lens. That’s just not what it’s for. It’s works perfectly for what it’s made to do.

    A really sweet lens!!! When a polarizing filter is added the colors are very vivid. When shooting in low light, a tripod or a real steady hand are needed. I kind of expected a little more sharpness in low light but, other than that a really great lens for the money!!

    This is a great update to the D version and makes a great alternative to the more expensive f/1.4 options from Nikon and Sigma.
