Nice Lens July 24, 2008
I have an older version of this lens on my Canon Rebel XT, but bought this newer model for my Nikon 300. It's light and easy to use. Its optics are fine for me, since I don't need huge blowups. For portaits I use a 62 mm soft focus filter, since I don't want the hassel of having to employ PhotoShop for retouching. The results are lovely.
