reviewswhat are people saying

"It produces sharp images in low light on my D700. It has quickly become my favorite lens."

"Great lens! I was using a 70-200mm f2.8 and when shooting basketball(worst lighting ever) the .8 makes a big difference."

"It's heavy but not so heavy that it can't be hand-held."
