This is my sharpest lens; with fast, quiet and accurate autofocus; solid construction and freakishly awesome contrast.
Anyone in the market for an 85mm should definitely take a look.

If you want a fast wide angle lens and you don't want to spend $1500 then this lens is it. The autofocus is noisy and slow, and to switch between manual and autofocus you have to remember to push/pull the focus ring (which btw is prone to accidental pushes/pulls) as well as the normal on/off switch. And it's not my sharpest lens.
If I had the money I'd get the Canon 24mm f/1.4. But this lens gets the job done for a third the price, it's reasonably sharp and is pretty solid.
