I would say that if you're after nigel blake-esque (et al) results then this is not the piece of kit to do it.  However, if you're after a fairly versitial, relatively affordable lens which you do not intend to print poster size pics, then its definately worth a look.  A few of the better results are posted along with spur of the moment record shots.</p></blockquote><p></p>
