Pros:

  • easy to use
  • quiet
Cons:
  • none so far

Awesome lens if you can't get the 1.2mm

I bought this lens for portraits. It has been wonderful so far. I think I like it more than my 50mm 1.8. It's a good alternative til I can afford the better L version.
Pros:
  • Clean
  • sharp pictures!!
Cons:
  • Nothing so fat
