Rated 5 out of 5 stars by 2 users at B&H Photo Video

"It is a very versatile lens. It is glued to my D3s all the time. Its great for panoramas since it produces very little distortion and vignetting; makes it very pain free to stitch."

"Sharpness across the whole picture on the D3X, super color fit, and wonderful out-of-focus bokeh."

"The only problem I have found is that this lens comes with a terrible lens cap. It easily comes off and very hard to put back on."
