This is a great portrait lens. I bought this lens about a month ago and absolutely love it. I was looking at more expensive lens, but decided to go with this cheaper version. I think it is a great lens for the price. With the F/1.4 aperature setting you can blur your background which makes excellent portrait shots. It also makes it great for low-light shooting. You can see some of the sample pictures below in which my mom took my finance’s and my engagement photos using this lens.
Some of the key features of this lens include:
- lightweight
- affordable
- small size
- great image quality
- sharp
- fast
