Pros: Solid resolution center to edge, excellent build, bokeh, nice contrast
Cons: AF can be hit or miss (maybe need calibration)
Optically this is a superb lens. However, the AF accuracy of the one copy I used concerned me. You can see my complete review here: http://www.pbase.com/lightrules/50f14ex .
