For a 135mm f2.8 metal lens, it is light and makes ergonomic sense with my NEX 6. Pros: Light weight. The colours it produces are beautiful. The bokeh is well controlled unless the background has lots of leaves or twigs at a too close a distance. Good focal length for portraits Cons Requires a lot of light to produce nice colours. I would say direct sunlight or at least bright day. as handled must start at 1/300 secs. It is soft at f2.8 for fine detail in photos but very acceptable for portraits at f2.8 The focus ring travel is crazy long. Hard to focus handheld but possible so always take two pictures.
