| comment: | I bought this lens as a body cap for my 500si, and its not much more expensive than one! Fantastic colours and sharpness, quick AF. Would be good on a full frame digital, but limited on APS-C Good for portraits. Zoom and manual focus a bit loose but could be due to age. Better than the kit lens over its limited range. |
