I had this lens for a month now. A good lens as everyone had suggested all along. Cannot really fault this lens at all.
This lens is so small and compact. Really cute in fact. I would not mind to take this lens along to any trip myself.
I did follow a lot of fellow members' advises to take photos stopping down to at least f8 (I hate stepping down apertures though). My last shot is done wide open with ISO 1600. Quite pleased that it is not that bad for sharpness.
