    I really needed stabilization on this one. The picture quality is awesome.. the lens is light and low light performance is on par. I hope to get the oss one and a step up to the g lens when I get more money

    You can never ever go wrong with the nifty fifty. Always a good starter lens and can use it instead of the super costly 1.4.

    Great lens takes Sharp and crisp photos. It is much better than the kit lens. The only reason why I gave it four stars was because it’s hard to get on. But I would recommend this is somebody else

    A unique lens, despite not going past 1.8 for the aperture, it is still a beautiful glass and would recommend buying for portrait shots

    Great lens, but especially a great price for a full frame lens! The autofocus can be a bit loud and doesn’t work very fast so good luck with getting pictures in motion. Good for low light portraits.

    Its a nice lense and great for its price. I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for a large varity of shots. It doesn't zoom, and you can't change the focus. But it has really good quality. A good lense for stills, and close-ups

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
