Rated 5 out of 5 stars by 10 users at B&H Photo Video

"It is excellent for no-flash low light indoor shots like weddings, receptions, parties, etc. Its also good for fast motion outdoor shots like kids and pets playing."

"It's super fast, very sharp and the large aperture is a must for dark lighting with no flash photography."
