No untroubled digital joy

I purchased the lens after extensive reading all reviews. On the many benefits that have been mentioned, I will not go there again, making a total of the lens when the shutter is closed and very sharp - with appropriate crop factor - practically distortion-free images.

Whoever therefore wants to work but primarily offenblendig - portraits or generally blur games - should know the following:

- A front / back focus is a way that many Vorrezensenten, strong in the field of probability. Occurs a permanent FF Also with me.
- The lenses can not be adjusted by a Nikon service! See [...] and there the point "Focus precision".
- The Nikon service recommended due to better precision and adjustability for digital cameras that are less fault tolerant than film cameras, the acquisition of AF-S lenses (ie with built-in motor).

Personally, I'll probably change the lens, because I bought it mainly for portraits.

For this reason, it gets to me only three stars because it specifically addresses a crop camera of the core data (focal length and aperture) as a portrait lens now times downright imposes. But as I said, it is not fundamentally bad and who is willing to compromise, with portraits can also get 2.2 or 2,8er aperture and / or manual focus still passable results - but that requires less "living" subjects that hold still better ,
