Versatile all around lens
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crisp clean images, ease of use, fast, quiet focusing. What’s not to love? I have not had a chance to compare it to the Zeiss/Sony lens of the same focal length but I am pleasantly surprised by this lens.
