    Cons: For a 55 mm Lens quite heavy and large, Does not come with a lens bag!! Would not suit all forms of Photography

    Pros: Incredible quality build factor, The zoom ring is so smooth no other lens comes near. making focusing easier. Bokeh at 1/4 is to die for. Low light capability is incredible. A joy to use.

    Summary: Will not suit all photographer but if you want the ultimate in detail when used with High megapixel cameras resolution is breathtaking. takes time to get used to manual focus but comes with practice.
