Just enough for amateur photographers

It's an ok lens, saving time and trouble in changing lenses yet after using other lenses I might consider not to buy it, if budget allows me better lenses. It focus too slow when comparing to nikkor lenses, the aperture is basic and good enough. Focal length won't let u take macro photos or closeups. Very good for general use.
