    I only snapped a few photos. They look okay. I am not sure if all I read on the internet is true about this lens. Jury is still out, but I do not like the fit when I mount it on the camera. It feels a bit tight. What I thought was a travesty was the package it came in. It came just in a bag with bubbles inside. I was shocked. $400 and best buy threw it in a one-layer bubble bag. I purposely didn't buy the lens from Amazon because it required shipping (didn't want it shipped). However, I ended up buying from best buy since I could physically bring to store if there were any issue.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi PCsux12282015, Thanks for posting a review. We appreciate it. To maximize the bokeh, make sure that the aperture is set to the biggest opening which is F1.8. You can do this by setting the mode of the camera to Aperture or Manual mode. Best regards, Zander
