Focus ring did not work right out of the box. So sad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am glad I purchased this camera. I initially purchased for shooting videos while at sports events, but I decided to use one day for a in home video and was surprised. The quality was and is amazing! I really LOVE the Bokeh. Very Beautiful. The only downside is if I'm wearing bright colors, they appear muted. I rarely use my 18-55 lens thanks to this baby!
Cons: alters the color a little
I would recommend this to a friend!

Original purchased back in 2016 and has been used frequently as an avid amateur photographer. Sensor failed and repair center deemed unrepairable and recycled. This was the same lens as a replacement.

5 Star Starter lens.. all the way.. part of my kit, and glade to have it.. I will upgrade soon and keep this in back up.. for the mounts are plastic.. and limited metal to metal contact for support and security on impact.. but it is a starter lens.. climbing out on the ledge is probably not your day one photo shoot.. but all functions work great.. to find the serial number you will have to pull it off the meta data of the photos information page. no serial number printed on the case or ring.. just not there as the photos say, and no comment to why.
