Cons: Too expensive for what it is. Too dark to shoot indoors without a flash or two. My copy was calibrated all wrong - could not focus at infinity. DX only - limits resale value.

Pros: Wide. Sharp images. Colour rendition is nice. Very flare resistant.

Summary: I shot a few weddings and a few heavy metal gigs with this one and the images turned out superb. However, my copy could not take a sharp landscape photo as it could not focus to infinity at all. Sold my copy.
