    In action4.0/5

    In action Did a portrait photo shoot and used it. I bought the first generation years ago and it has always been my favorite lens. I don't need IS technology because I have strong technique. This is the next generation lens and it is mechanically much better than the first generation. It does seem a little softer than my current one, however that is not unusual to see variations in lenses. My customer did not notice it, that is what matters to me. Nothing that an unsharp mask can not fix. I have been searching for this lens for a long time in this price point. Competitors are selling this for 1/3 more the price. I will do business with Roberts again in a heart beat.

    Best all around lens!5.0/5

    Best all around lens! I had one before. Still a fantastic performer and a great travel lens! I keep hearing that the at is slow. I am not a sports photographer so the at is adequate for me, even with my newer cameras. The weight helps me keep the camera steady and the fast aperture is a bonus!

    A Sleeper Lens4.0/5

    A Sleeper Lens This is the 4th copy of this lens that I have owned. Every time I sell one, I regret it. It’s trashed on the internet as being soft-and it is a little soft at F2.8, but in my opinion, still usable for most things even then—especially for portraits. I also like it as an event lens. This is my only non-Nikon lens at the moment. The other 42 are Nikons. That should say something.
