My favorite pics from recent dive trip were with this lens. But you really have to pay attention to your angle to sun. Into sun no problem. Directly away from sun or close ups were your strobe covers entire photo also no problems. But anything else watch out for vignetting on the bottom corners. Never on the top though so a lot of photos I will crop and get some great photos from as well. In short vignetting was frustrating but the good photos I got were well worth it. Maybe a pro photographer would know some tricks to minimize vignetting in certain lighting situations.
