    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.

    My camera was purchased with the standard 18-55 mm and 55-200 mm lenses. Portrait photos are phenomenal with this 50 mm lens.
