Customer Reviews

an awesome lens
this lens performs as stated...it takes crystal clear shots, be they regular head shots or close up macro shots....the detail the lens is able to grab is incredible.....its ability to switch between AF and MF is easy and able to do on the fly while taking pics....came second nature quickly.

i would highly recommend this lens for someone who is looking to invest in a better lens than the kits lenses that came with your DSLR and is interested in taking a lot of close ups, be they of people or flowers/insects, etc....you will not be disappointed....they state the ratio is 1:1, but it sure seems like a lot more when you view your pics on the monitor......

its 2.8 max f-stop also allows one to take better pics in low light over the 4/5.6 kit lenses.

i own a sony a350 dslr and the lens performs smoothly with this camera.
