Absolutely. Yes, it can be a handful to focus. I photographed a memorial service this morning for the principle of a middle school (grades 6-8) and it was in a very dim gym. Got a wonderful picture at f/1.7 beautiful bokeh. Beautiful light. What a lens! I think I've finally gotten used to the viewfinder, too! It's a great lens for available light. I've been using it a lot wide open and at f/1.7 and f/2 and it has yet to fail me, or be too difficult to focus.
