Hereby I have fulfilled a long-cherished wish. This lens I choose after long searches in the network and various magazines. I am not a professional and therefore so does not have to earn my money. So it can also be this plastic lens. The workmanship is good. The engine is extremely quiet and the image quality for my needs more than adequate. In my view, for amateurs and beginners the right choice. It is nice that the lens to focus the camera does not change its length. Another useful feature is the switch that allows a preselection of the focus area. This reduces the pump but frequently observed when focusing. But in addition can also be adjusted manually at any time. I am happy.
