    I bought that same lens about 1 1/2 years ago, and it is as solid as can be. I use it as my main lens and is ALWAYS attached to my camera.

    It's heavy, and your neck will get sore if you keep it there for a long time, but it's a fantastic lens. Enjoy it!

    That's a pretty lense. If you still have money left over, I recommend the 50mm 1.8. If your camera has a motor, it will auto focus. If it doesn't, then that just leaves a little extra work to do.

    I've been using this lense for a bit now, and for the money, it can't be beat.

    Good shot with a great lens. Because your background is so plain the photo needs a little depth. When your out again try to find a background with some depth. It will distort/blur the background very nicely and give the portrait some general depth.
