Title: Great Value Lens
Product review: I've been using this lens for nearly two years now and am still very impressed. The 14-45mm range is wide enough for excellent landscape shots and provides enough zoom for most situations (although you'll want more for capturing wildlife). There is some chromatic aberration in high contrast situations and some barrel distortion (only noticeable if you're photographing a brick wall or other strong grid), but given the price of this lens I think it's acceptable. Although it isn't weather/dust sealed it does have a high quality feel to it with smooth rotation.Overall this is a compact, inexpensive lens that delivers excellent results in the majority of situations. There are better lenses out there but for beginner/intermediate photographers you're better to save some money on the lens and invest in good books on technique, composure, etc.
