    Cons: mecanical poor

    Pros: good optics

    Summary: Its like a cream in a "yogurt cup". Really good optics, nearly so strong as the "big brothers" from Tamron SP 90, Tokina PRO 100, Sigma 70+150, Canon 60+100, Nikon Micro etc. On the the other side the construction-quality of this lens is really dismal, so I sold it now. I need and want only the best......
