"I am a professional portrait and wedding photographer and have now used this lens for studio and location portraits and weddings. This lens is awesome in every way.

"This lens is simply amazing. It is one of Nikon's best reasonably-priced portraiture lenses.

"Fantastic portraiture lens if you can get a good copy. This was my second copy, and is significantly sharper than my first.
