Review: Well worth the money. - I am no expert and I'm still learning how to use fully manual lenses but I have found this lens one of the easier ones to use and I've had good results taking portraits using it, I would advise people to use a good tripod and at least a two second delay on the camera to avoid any shake, it's definitely worth the money and I'm looking forward to getting out and about with it now spring has arrived.
