Christopher I. ★★★★★

I was a little worried about the weight, but it's surprisingly light for an f/2.8 zoom. The autofocus is snappy on my camera, and the constant aperture makes it great for indoor shots without changing settings.

William H. ★★★★★

Finally got this for travel and the f/2.8 aperture makes a real difference in low-light cafés. Zooming from 27mm to 75mm equivalent covers everything I need without swapping lenses.

Eva I. ★★★★★

The constant f/2.8 aperture across the entire zoom range is a lifesaver for indoor event photography. I’ve been using it on my walk around camera, and the 27-75mm equivalent coverage is perfect for everything from portraits to street shots.
