    I think this lens is still and will always be relevant. Reasonably-priced, amazing bokeh, low-light monster, and a superb sharp result. Personally, I really like the sharpness.

      You Can’t call it reasonable price, it’s super cheap price for the value and the performance. Reasonable price should be some other canon lenses which cost around $1000

    I hope mirrorless doesn't kill DSLR.
    I like a real viewfinder! An EVF just isn't as good, unless you spend over 1K on the body...And even then, they drain the battery a lot more than shooting with a viewfinder.
    Thankfully, you can get a converter to use EF lenses on mirrorless mounts, but you cannot do the opposite...So if you get into mirrorless and buy lenses, and then (for some reason) get a DSLR, those mirrorless lenses will never work with it.
