price paid:	400 euro SH
positive:	Size & weight for a short tele Build quality Close focus ratio Same filter size as other Sigma i-serie lenses
negative:	The lenshood is a bit large, I use the lens without it
comment:	Great little lens. Shares the IQ flavour of the Sigma 45i. AF is silent and good, maybe not as good as the latest greatest GM lenses, works for me. Will I miss a large aperture, maybe at times. But this lens delivers wide open on sharpness and contrast. Plus bokeh is better to my taste as the Sony 1.8/85 and Batis 1.8/85.
