Pros: In a size of a NORMAL,50mm lens you receive:#ultra sharp glass,#very fast AF,#70mm f/4,5

 

Instead of 55mm f/5,6 (in kit zoom),# amazing 1:3 MACRO,#very useful 35-70mm (@52,5-105mm)

street zoom, # legendary SMC COLOURS, # HQ build quality
  If you need: sharp, small, versatile zoom with more reach than 18-55 kit lens - there is no other!!!
  I've read about it, have heard about it.... but when I found an auction
  with this lens for 37,5€ - I didn't hesitate.
  I must say that this is very often the lens that does all the job for me.
  Picture after picture I got HQ pictures.
  This lens never let me down, and it's size and weight is just pure miracle -
  when retracted - it is almost a 50mm size.
  Added 1:3 TRUE MACRO capability adds a cherry on top of it.
  One of my most used lenses and a #1 choice when I need to travel light
  Get one - you will like it!
Cons: Plastic look - but by the time you can get used to it and even like it...
