Pros:
Cons:

Could this possibly be a Komine built lens similar to the 90mm and 55 mm macros they built for Vivitar, Panagor, Elicar, Rokunor, Soligor and Spiratone? Check out the Vivitar 135mm f/2.8 1:2 Close Focusing and normal focusing. They look very similar to this one. They are supposed to be pretty good especially the rare close focus

Pros: value for money; smooth manual focus, decent sharpness, ca well controlled
Cons: adjusting the diaphragm takes too much force

This lens was a pleasant surprise when I started using it for the first time. Even wide open decent sharpness and no ca/flare to speak of. And it did not come with a hood so I use it without hood and even then it gives pleasant results!
I find this lens to be solidly built and the manual focus ring is a pleasure to use.
Much value for the money!
The minimum focus distance is only 1 meter, which was also a pleasant surprise!
