Great lens. I like how it looks concise and simple. Included was a hood (a plus) and a soft microfiber pouch for storage. Let's talk about how it works. Manual focus is excellent, very accurate. Autofocus is excellent but a bit noisy. If you're just taking photos, no problem, but for videos you'll need an external microphone. I've uploaded some examples using the Nikon D3500 so it's great for beginner to intermediate users. Overall, I can really recommend this lens 100%. Ideal for portrait and landscape format. Great price with great performance. I am very happy with this lens.
