Pros:
|
Inexpensive, 50mm equiv on 1.6 crop camera, sharp center, build seems solid
|
|
Cons:
|
loud AF, soft borders at 2.8
|
|
|
The AF though loud is accurate, the manual focus ring seems a little gritty. The center is always very sharp, especially so from f4-8. The borders seem soft at 2.8 but pretty decent everywhere else. I haven't noticed a lot of CA or flare in my shots.
I know this lens isn't as sharp as the 50mm 1.8, but not many lenses offer that price/performance ratio. This will probably be my normal lens untill i can afford a good wide angle zoom.
