By "better" I mean quality wise, K+ for legitimate opinions.

For that short of a focal length, VC is not going to help much. Not worth the extra money.

 

[b_r_tregs]

So the first one?

 

[uni-corn]

Yes. I love mine, glad I didn't go with the VC.

Too bad I can't use it anymore :-(

 

[b_r_tregs]

Ok thanks!

And sorry bout that

 

[eheath]

[b_r_tregs]

Thanks! K+

HAHAHA! $500 for this lens is a joke. I got mine on ebay for like $250 new...

 

[WPoch]

yours has probably been exposed to sperm at some point in its lifetime then..

 

[gusestomp]

Your lens obviously has AIDS.
