This is one of my favourite lenses for portrait. You will not be disappointed.

A free bump!
This is a must especially for those who have only the kit lens covering this range. The performance of this lens is simply uncomparable. Not only it is fast and sharp, it also produces a very pleasing bokeh. I love mine (and, have a few other primes at this range!).

Promised payment did not come through, so lens is back on the Market.
