Don't mistake the early DFA 100mm f/2.8 Macro with the more recent DFA 100mm f/2.8 Macro WR which has the silky smooth focus ring, rounded aperture blades and significantly better build quality. The older DFA macro was just ok but the new WR version is better optically (lens flare and nicer bokeh) and overall quality wise. As a one-time FA 100mm f/2.8 Macro owner, I find the focus limiter and clamp to be of limited use in practical shooting and the former is largely redundant because of Quick Shift, which allows much quicker and accurate focusing. The WR version is simply a stellar lens.
