Love this lens, sharp from f2, good contrast and very decent bokeh. The only con is no AF

Feel free to post images here from any other camera.

I just got my used copy last week, used it with my kids yesterday. Finding focus isn't super easy but I get a pretty good amount of keepers. Really sharp if you catch focus correctly.

edit: I'm a little surprised I don't see more about this lens, total bargain for what you get.

I know others have this lens, lets see it! Bump post.

Quick candid from the same shoot with my kids. Really shows off the sharpness and the 3d ability of this lens. I wish I'd have kept his hands in frame, I might just recrop it landscape and tighter.

I'm just in love with what this lens is producing for me.

Just a quick shot with my daughter, and a 100% crop to show the sharpness. I'm amazed at what this thing can do.

Great shots. How hard is it to get accurate focus at f2 (portrait not landscape)?

Focus dot on Nikon body(d800) has been very accurate for me.

@fsiagian

It is quite easy but it requires a bit of practice (you can try it with any AF lens by switching to manual . See how many keepers you get. If you nail it the results are very satisfying.

Nice shots.
Been looking for one of these, on and off. I keep toying with the idea of something much more expensive, but the shots I regularly see from this lens are impressive.

There is Zeiss 135/f2 Milvus @ around $2k and according the reviews it is only slightly better, definitely not worth 4 times $$$ premium. Personally if i was to spend $2k on lens i rather go with Nikon new 105/1.4.

You're in it. If there is another thread I haven't found it, and I've looked.

Walking through the Chicago Lincoln Park Zoo and heard the most tremendous bellow, like something I've never heard before. It was this lion roaring, it carried so far, it was amazing. Resized doesn't do this justice, you can see all the hairs on his mane and detail in the eye. Love this lens.

When I put in the time this thing always produces great results. From today on a search for fall color with the kids.
