Cons: plastic construction, severe chromatic aberration, color fringing corner to corner sharpness is weak (improves by f5.6) noisy AF motor focus ring feels flimsy.

Pros: Great center sharpness at all apertures, good contrast and color reproduction, no flare issues, fast autofocus, has distance scale, focus ring (unlike 50mm f1.8) affordable price

Summary: this is a great prime lens to go with the 50mm f1.8
