I bought this lens and another prime 24/2.8 because could not afford a quality zoom and these lenses are very sharp and deliver a lot of fine details. I tested them against my friends (a professional photographer with a bunch of L lenses) 70-200L and 16-35L respectively and the primes at 2.8 were sharper than zooms. At around 4.0 and smaller they performed the same and i was very satisfied with that. I wish it had USM motor but I guess the price would be different then.
