    Hello all, just wondering if anyone has one of these lenses? If so, what's the image quality like? And is it possible to get f/2.8 at 50mm with it?

    Thanks,
    Noel.

    I have this lens and find it great as an everyday lens. It is sharp over the whole range. Does suffer from some barrel distortion at the wide end but not significant for most pictures.

    The 2.8 only extends to 20mm. You should get f4.0 at 50mm.

    Nice semi macro function as well.
