Still getting to know it but it does seem pretty capable. using it for single in september so i'll put it through the paces. It is damn nice to shoot AF for a change though, and given they can be had used for $150-160 i think they are a steal
I see a lot of hyperbole on lenses that are just good, but because the user is a neophyte and it's their first prime you'd think a decent lens was an FA31 LTD
there are certainly lot's of gems in the old lenses for the prices they can be gotten for, but sometimes the hype drives the prices well beyond what they are worth. For instance I doubt i'd buy a K,M,A or Tak 85 for the current prices when I could get the Very good(but not stellar) bower/rokinon for under $300 new with rear element coatings
I like that review, straight to the point and thought out in practical terms. Sometimes people go a bit overboard or suffering from LBA to put up an objective review
