Latest Review Posted	Sigma Mini Wide II 28mm F2.8 I have the earlier Mini Wide (not II) version of this lens. It lacks the A setting and is fully manual. I've had it for eons back to film days. It will outlast me for sure. Lacks contrast and definitely needs a hood. The flange next to the aperture pin needed trimming on my lens to get it to fit on a k-r. Macro is fairly low at only 1:4.5 (less than even the DA 18-55 Kit Lens). Note it isn't a "Mini Macro" as posted in another review but a "Mini Wide". It's brother was the more expensive 24 mm "Super Wide". Figure they never had just a "wide" Recommended if you can get it for cheap and want a reasonable fast (compared to kit lens) fixed manual lens to play with. The II version or a newer FA lens would be a better purchase than the plain old "I".
