Pros: Not really any strong pros ...
Cons: Not wide enough for most needs
I bought and kept this lens for about six months and never really did use it much. I didn't like the image quality, it wasn't wide enough for a lot of things, the angles were awkward ... it was just kind of a blah lens. Now that I have the 17-55 and 10-22, there's just no reason to have a prime like this.
