Love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased an open box lense but it still wrks great. The bokeh on this lens is phenomenal. You'll have to get used to having no zoom so you'll need to physically move forward/backward to zoom.

Sharp lens and decent price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a super sharp lens. The focal length on the crop sensor makes it more like a 75mm but it works really well. Takes super sharp pictures. I would recommend this lens if you have the Nex lineup camera.
