Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 24 users at B&H Photo Video

"This lens is tack sharp on my D300s, with the added ability to make the dreamiest out of focus backgrounds imaginable"

"The lens is fast at f2.0 and it takes beautiful bokeh images at f2.0 and f2.8."

"I had two copies of this lens with both of them severely and consistently front focusing at f/2.0 at medium to long distances on my D700."
