    Mother's day gift and it is a lens I didn't know I wanted. The lens makes it easy to take great close ups that have the blurry background. My pictures look professional.

    I'm not a photographer. This light little lense helped me take some great pics at an outdoor party with my d5100 on auto. I can't wait to run this thing on manual.
