| ownership: | I own this lens |
| compared to: | Sigma 70-300 (4-5.6) DG APO Macro |
| price paid: | 549.95 USD (new) |
| positive: | - Focus range limiter - Excellent sharpness even at 2.8 - Macro 1:1 - Amazing bokeh - Beautyful colors - Front doesn't rotate |
| negative: | - A bit plastic feel - The rubber focusing grip creeps - Hunting focus - Crapy hood |
| comment: | Amazing lens! Colorful, sharp and the bokeh...! I think one of Minolta's finest! Great for portraits too (however the slow focus and the 1.5x makes a bit hard to stabilize handheld even at 2.8 in cloudy weather). Glad to catch one out of the last load! |
