Sometimes an old fashioned recipe and the latest modern technology don’t mix: zap-blasting your grandmother’s vegetable soup ingredients in a 10,000-watt microwave instead of slowly simmering them for six hours, for example. But other times strange bedfellows bring out the best in each other.

Overall, I would say this is a great lens… for specific purposes. You should get it only if you want a specific style of shot. I think it’s a great item to keep in the camera bag, but you should only pull it out when you really need it.

The original composer really got me excited about photography again. I had a Canon 5D MkII and was doing more video than photography at the time. I had one gray day outdoors with a couple willing models shooting scenes for music video and some stills.

Was in a sort of photography ruy until I purchased this lens. It's a fun lens to use when you want to make something ordinary interesting.
