Excellent Bang for the Buck... Very sharp at all apertures; decent focal length for non-traditional macro shooting. The build quality is good (but not like a Voightlander or Zeiss). This older lens design does not use "OS" or image stabilization technology. Overall it is a fine macro lens for many applications.
Excellent all the way. Nothing but good things to say about this lens. Excellent picture quality and fast, precise focus. Good handling features. Excellent lens choice.
Excellent! This lens is amazing. You can get as close as you want and the pictures are crystal clear. So glad I stepped up and purchased it. You will love it!
