I hear the focus is a little slow due to lens glass weight. Is the focus fast enough to use on Al servo for "running speed" sports?

It's really not that slow and I seriously doubt someone could out run the focus of the lens....Now motorsports may be a different story.

Thanks Jason, I like fast primes and I think this will can come in handy in low light weddings as well as limited sports. 1D MKIIN 30D 20D and G6
