Not that one specifically. I have the Access Tempo 28-70mm f/3.5-4.5 AF (same as Sigma/Zeiss Jena versions of the lens) and it's right up there with the 75-200mm f/3.8 (Sigma/Zeiss Jena/Access Tempo, though the Access Tempo will be called an 80-200mm). Since these lenses have been ignored so much, and mistakenly attributed to other makers (like in
this instance), I would go looking for the 28-70mm. Gives you a bit more reach than the 35-70mm. (Only thing to note about the 28-70mm is that it really wasn't designed with MF in mind since they didn't put a rubber focus grip onto it, so it really is more an AF lens.)
