OK. I have it IN my hand looking at it.
Front barrel ROTATES when focusing. (NO Front lip that turns seperately)
Front barrel DOES NOT rotate when zooming
Filter size is 67mm.
Macro mode clicks into function on the 28mm end
Heavy
Petal/Tulip hood will NOT always be at 12 oclock. (Petal hood WILL Rotate)
Standard collapsible rubber hood WOULD be ideal
about the size of my 18-135 DA WR
As far as image quality ? I have no complaints at all. The wider end is very good , on the long end its still good but lacks color.
I wouldn't pay more than about $30 USD for a nice copy.
I am considering a copy of this, 20 bucks and 10 bucks shipping. However the blades are a bit oily but the seller says that it doesn't affect stop down operations. Should I get that one?
