I love this lens for the colors and bokeh. I am a big macro fan, so being able to make a 10 inch print of a single grain of rice at full photo quality is just amazing. I find myself more subject to available-light issues than with other lenses and am always battling motion blur. Crazy as it sounds, I wish they released a stabilized version even though it is only 100mm. I was considering the competition because of price, but I was able to snag this for less than the competition anyways, and it is a far better lens. Again, bokeh, colors.
