This is lens is so great that I own 4 copies of the lens it's self. The lens takes time to master the sliding and turning to focus. It is heavy and will make you want to go to the gym just so your arms won't be so tired.
This is lens is highly under estimated by newer photographer just because it doesn't have auto-focus. Their lost and my gain in this matter. The lens is really sharp when stopped down. It is one of my sharpest lens that I have and I take it everywhere. When used when used with the lens hood the aberrations is almost non-existent, what little is there can easily be removed in PP.
The bokeh is buttery and smooth wide open and still holds that value when stopped down. It can completely make the background look like a painting if used correctly.

I'm surprised this lens wasn't already in the database. It's one of my favorites now. Once you get use to the two rings that control focusing it will become easy to use. It also stays focused through out it's range in macro mode. I will update more as I use it more.

This is a lens that surprised me to no end. I never heard of it before until I tried it and seen the results. The lens did have a really stiff focusing ring. It was confirmed by another person that they all do. I don't see any aberration with this lens when stopped down. The lens is really sharp with great contrast.
