This lens is great for video work for both canon and nikon, I wouldn't recommend getting this lens if your going to be starting up photography as its not the sharpest of lenes, however it still preforms pretty well when at F5.6 upwards ut wide open is a little soft for photos. overall this lens is a great lens to get started with for video work, or just for a general lens for someone who isnt looking for taking up photography. the only negative I could find with this lens is the focus/zoom ring stick together pretty well when in manuel focus mode, Im not sure if its just my used lens I got or not but thats the only ajor fault. Before buyjing this lens I looked at a few reviews myself and found a lot of people had a problem with the lens hood that comes with it, tbh im not all that fussed as the lens has a anti flare coating which does an ok job, the lens hood does stay on fairly well unless your always putting your camera down.etcRead full review
