Solid Lens Decent macro lens with a large minimum distance to account for. Attached are a couple photos taken with the lens.
A great lens for the price. I purchased this lens to use with my Nikon D3200. I've used it for a couple days now and have been very pleased with it. At first the motor was a little noisy, but it soon got quieter. The auto focus works well with my camera. It doesn't focus as fast as a Nikon lens does, but it didn't cost as much either. It has excellent clarity through its entire range. It seems well built also. Over all I think it's an excellent value.
Not exactly what I was expecting It's a great lens, but not what I had hoped for. It requires me to be further away from my subject and isn't as close up as I had hoped. I should have went with a smaller macro. It's a great lens. The fault was my own.
