This is a great general purpose lens; a great choice for vacations, walking around, etc. It's compact and light compared to the 24-70mm so it's a lot more convenient to carry. It works with both FX and DX cameras. The focus is excellent. There is a bit of barreling at 24mm and a bit of pin-cushioning at 85mm, but not bad. You probably won't notice it unless you're shooting a grid of perfectly straight lines. Overall, it's a great performer for it's size and price.
