    This lens has so much potential. Unreal blur effect for portraits and landscapes. Price is good also. Really can do some amazing things with this lens.

    This is a great lens to take potraits, know about it and specific purpose of the lens before buying. Once you know how to work with lens without zoom it is excellent.

    Terrific lens to use in getting different shots. Blurring out some parts of scene makes for some outstanding effects.

    Good lens at an affordable price. I was looking for an upgrade lens from what came with the camera and I think this is a great value. It works well.
