I had this lens back in the day and it came with an "Acromatic" closeup lens. I used it on my MX at the time and I thought it was an OK lens..but not as good as the SMCP-M 80-200/4.5. The later isn't considered very good either, but in 1980 it was good enough for me and my tight budget. The Sigma was well built and lasted me a long time. I'm not sure what became of it...probably bundled it with a body and sold it. You find them pretty cheap now and they're hard to find in mint condition. I've seen it described as "the worst lens I ever owned" but I didn't think it was that bad.
