Another good summary Chris. I would add that the bokeh for portrait usage can be quite good as long as the background isn't wildly contrasty.

I only wish it had OIS.

OIS?

For action OIS does not work and increases lens size and cost.

For static scene when long shutter times used i.e 15-30s OIS does not work too.

Does it make sense invest for OIS for specific situations only?

IMO no, particularly for fast lens - you can use lower ISO or faster shorter shutter time. and no for pancake - I expect smaller size rather than OIS.
