ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | have 90mm tamron macro but use this most of time as do not need to be so close to subject esp insects |
price paid: | £300 2nd hand boxed |
positive: | sharp, well built, filter ring |
negative: | heavy, large size filters |
comment: | better for using at distance esp when trying to photograph insects than 90mm macro, Better on A99ii than A65 due in camera limiter otherwise hunts for focus. |
