This is one of the BEST lenses I have used! I purchased this beast after reviewing the lens here and at other sites. I needed a fast lens and this one seemed to be rated very highly. Now I can understand why. I just returned from three days shooting up in Maine (photos up on my website now) and I have to say the detail, and clarity are absolutely incredible! I am able to easily view images shot with this lens not only at 100%, but even at 200% in my Lightroom application! This is not something I could do with my other lenses. Well worth the money for sure. I am using it on my Nikon D300, and Finepix S2 Pro. Since I purchased it the lens has not come off the D300.
This weekend (2/28) I am shooting my first wedding with the lens. It is entirely indoors, with available light and some light flash. I'm looking forward to it now. My other lenses include the 18-200 VR Zoom, though not as sharp and clear as this one still a very good lens. I also have the Tokina 12-24 F4 zoom and some other Macro lenses and a lensbaby 3G. I'm updating this review today, 3/16/09 to report the lens worked flawlessly in the wedding shoot! Quite frankly, I could not have shot the wedding and/or the images would not have been this great. I've not only received many compliments on the images themselves, but have also received enough side orders -- not even from the B & G to help offset the expense of the lens. Wow is the only word that comes to my mind. It is truly an amazing piece of glass. I shot the entire wedding with this lens, and a lensbaby in the confines of a small room, completely lit by tungsten lighting, and one soft box i brought in from my studio for some semi-formal shots.
Like I said, this one has not come off the D300. It's unbelievable. Well worth the money if you shoot pro, or just want the very best results. ...
