Don't ever buy a lens from Skip. He'll constantly bash the poor thing's
reputation after he sold it to you.

Well, considering that you can buy 50/1.8's for $20-30 all day long, I
can't see paying $4-600 for the lens....(those on the list have heard me
say this before)....IT'S NOT WORTH IT FOR A USER.
