Imagine a 50mm lens on steroids - just big enough to slightly obscure the bottom right corner of the viewfinder. It is heavier and bulkier than I had imagined; however, when I'm in the dark taking photos I never notice the weight, size, or the fact that it obscures part of the viewfinder. If you can borrow or rent one for awhile, try it out. Unless you do lots of work in low light, you don't need it. If you do lots of work in low light, you can't do without it.
