Summary
I get to know a lens, zoom or prime, after about a few thousand images through it. After about 3k's of shooting, this lens has come on to be a favourite companion for urban and candid shooting. The first thing that stands out is how crisp and punchy the images turn out, even when the aperture is fully opened. Ther colour, rendering, and fringes are very pleasant, like a high end expensive lens. But this lens isn't! This lens could be the bargain of the year, or the decade. It is so low priced, you can break one a get a new one the next day, no hassles, even to the pocket.
Strengths
The images produced are almost as convincing as a higher end expensive lens.
Small for a powerfull zoom.
Lightweight and stealth friendly.
My favourite for urban journalism.
VR lets me shoot in low light like never before!
Bargain cost.
Weaknesses
Plastic mount.
