Cons: Very sharp, good construction quality, metal mount, AF precision

Pros: Noisy AF motor, colors a bit cold, vignetting @19mm F3.5, flare, not use for infrared photography.

Summary: This lens was really a surprise. Purchased as a joke, it has proved a great lens for street photography. Not forced to compromise too exaggerated to get good images. The sharpness is very impressive for a lens of this price range. His faults are more objective and vignetting evident at 19mm wide open (at F 3.5 on 5D camera body, on aps-c the problem reduces a lot), and its complete inactivity for infrared photography. The AF motor noise and the yield of cold colors, basically isn't a disturb. For its price, is a lens that is worth to try!
