I just wanted to share my enthusiasm with you guys!
I'm just blowed by the greatness -yeah, greatness!- of this lens.


It's heavy, but I'm sure I can handle it. It takes very good pictures -I just took a couple of shots of my mom in our dining room (which is not really well lit) and they were great-.
Mom said I could have gone all the way and gotten the IS version, for the money I spent. (I ended up paying full price for it, even though I bought it in the US and shipped it here -yeah, it would have saved me like $300) but that's no big deal, after trying it)


So, yeah...I just love it, can't wait until I'll go out tomorrow after school


I know it's a great lens, but what do you guys think? Should I have gotten the IS version? I thought it wasn't worth the while, because I don't really to a lot of portraits or indoor shooting, except for indoor sports -for which the F2.8 is great, I guess-. That's why I didn't think of going for the IS. What do you think?


thanks for reading, anyway =)
