Rated 4 out of 5

A Superb Portrait Lens at a Great Price.

On my crop sensor this well made manual lens becomes a focal length equivalent to a 127 mm lens. Great for portraits with pleasing bokeh, and shallow depth of field. I love using it as I focus using my camera's peaking and magnification utilities. Color is rich and accurate. I bought a rubber lens hood and outdoor portraits are flare free (unless I want some lens flare). A Premium Lens at a value price. I recommend this lens highly.

Build to last unit.

This review is base on build quality as it was went the wrong mount and I wasn't able to use it. With that said , this is a solid built lens and the focusing ring is buttery smooth. This feel as expensive as the L Lens counter part. This is a manual lens but desirable for video and portrait or landscape photography.
