A nice upgrade and replacement for the 16-50 and 55-210 kit lenses. You won't need to swap lenses nearly as often. Image quality is sharp, but the far corners are soft at nearly all focal lengths. Aberrations become apparent when the aperture is wide open, or with high contrasting light. The bokeh is circular when achieved, but has an unfavorable, dimpled appearance. It's not a prime, but works just fine as long as you have good light.
