Image quality
My copy of this lens did have some scratches on the front lens which may have affected the image quality.
But did get nice results and don't think this have done too much.

Sample

Build quality

Very good and solid.
Also have a nice feel to it.

Conclusion

Nice and well built lens.
Image quality is great but do have little glow wide open and some soft corners on a full frame camera.
The flare is also not the best looking so maybe not the best lens for that beautiful sunset.
