For your money, the best portrait lens in the system!

The best portrait lens in the system (after the 77 lim), and that says it all! For its price, the lens is just superb! And having the 21, 40, 70 lim. (if budget allows), you get a very compact set for crop sensors, which is incredibly convenient for traveling. Because the lenses are very lightweight, small in size, and cover most of the desired focal lengths. The image quality, of course, will please you as well.

- There's a bit of chromatism on the open diaphragm, but that's the same with all other lenses.
- It's not very convenient to use filters with the hood attached.
