I wanted a mid tele that was light, easy to carry around and had a good wide aperture. The alternatives (eg. 80-200 F2.8) were well rated but cost more and weighed a lot more.
I was brought up on primes so don't mind the lack of zoom.
I am still learning with this lens, but am enjoying using it and have been pleased with my initial results.
