Great lens to get good bokeh and reduce depth of field at an affordable price!
The lens is ok for the price you pay. I picked it because it's equivalent to a 50mm lens at APSC and I needed a lens that lets in a lot of light to increase depth of field in videos and photos. Image quality is decent, at £100 you clearly can't expect the sharpness of a more expensive lens, but I haven't seen any major issues. The autofocus works discreetly, it's a bit noisy (but nothing special) and for some reason it seems necessary to turn the camera off and on again when switching from manual to automatic, otherwise it just doesn't seem to find the fire anymore. In any case, forget to use it as a lens for autofocus videos for two reasons: 1) if you buy this lens, you most likely have a mid-to-budget device with problems of its own 2) the lens sometimes struggles with focus to find. However, in any case, for videos it is always better to use manual focus. I had no problems using it! If you intend to use it mainly with manual focus and are looking for a lens that gives you a nice bokeh effect and good subject/background separation, you can't go wrong with this lens (at this price)!
