I've had this lens almost three months now. It just stays on my 80D most of the time for family and fun photography. I think the review linked above downplays too much how well this does for portraits, especially outdoor candid shots of toddlers. And it works for food in restaurants quite nicely too, if that's your thing. And flowers. The little LCD lights are of slight help, but get plenty of attention when shown to friends. Overall the lens is quick, reliable, and very, very light and portable.
Lenses like this make the 80D so easy to bring along all the time.
