This is a very nice lens, but this won’t be for everyone as it’s manual focus. If you just want to take pictures of kids running around at full speed it isn’t for you but if you want to take portraits or still life with beautifully out of focus foreground and background to make your pictures pop, this is for you. At 1.1 its sharp in the middle of the frame and soft to very soft towards the outside but at 5.6 it’s pretty good everywhere, but I don’t use it like that I just use it wide open. It’s a very well built lens but the lens hood is plastic and doesn’t do a great job, so I have a 52mm screw thread metal one that takes a 58mm lens cap (all from eBay) and leave the hood fitted to the lens all the time just taking the cap off the hood when I want to use it. Hope this helps.
