I have this lens and i love it, it is very good also for non macro work, if you don't mind the long focus throw. I don't, and i love the versatility.
It's sharp wide open (of course in macro you won't shoot wide open) unless you incur in some CA in high contrast situations, that disappear as soon as you stop down a little.
In this respect probably the DA 35mm Limited is superior, it has hardly any form of aberrations wide open, and its focal length is more suited for walkaround use.
But as far as pure resolution goes, this lens won't disappoint, especially in macro use, where the DA35 often has really too small a working distance to effectively achieve 1:1 reproduction ratio.
Here are some sample shots at full 1:1 magnification that i just took, you can download fullsize.
f/11 ISO1600
Lots of details you can see the tiny pollen grains
Octagonal bokeh :P Still pleasing IMO
