Pros and cons

According to our camera lens expert

When you zoom in, the aperture remains the same, so your light settings don't change.
Thanks to its compact and light weight, you can easily take the lens with you.
Thanks to the seals against dust, the lens remains clean and clear.
The lens doesn't have image stabilization to reduce motion blur.
In combination with a light camera, the 680g lens may feel heavy.

Top lens

Excellent IQ
Good build quality
Relatively large

With the release of the Mark II version, this Mark i is a cheaper alternative that is still really incredibly good.
