Pros:
|
THE sharpest lens I own. This is the one I compare all my other lenses to. It's sharp at all F stops. Contrast is perfect. No distortion of any kind that I have every noticed. I've had this one for several years.
|
|
Cons:
|
Other than the fact it isn't as convenient as a zoom lens, there are no negatives. (But the optical quality makes up for it.)

Pros:
|
Fast aperture, sharp, fast focusing, very shallow DOF, non-D version made in Japan
|
|
Cons:
|
very shallow DOF can be tricky, slight telephoto on Digital is less versatile.
|
|
|
At least the non-D version that I own is all metal. Get it second-hand, no worries.

Pros:

Classic lens, compact, sharp!
|
|
Cons:

Made in China?
|
|
|
If you are on a budget, I would suggest you get the AF 50mm f/1.8 instead.

Light, small, ULTRA sharp, fast ... should I go on
|

Cons:
|
none

I havent put the lens through its paces yet but from the little I played with it I am totally blown away. It is a great lens and possibly the sharpest lens I own. This is one lens that will probably start living on my camera body.
You cannot go wrong for the price/performance

Incredibly sharp and contrasty lens at f1.4-22!
Cheap, considering.
great all around lens for general shooting
|
|
Cons:

None, so far
|
|

Sharp, sharp lens with fantastic color rendition, and as a plus, with d-slr(1.5x), makes a great f1.4 portrait lens as well!
