Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 37 users at B&H Photo Video

"Lightweight, accurate, precise. I tried it out at a friends backyard and took closeup pictures of flowers. You can actually see the texture of the petals."

"Easy to handhold due to it's lightweight, coupled with VR, gave good handheld macros. Additional focus capabilities added to auto focus a nice touch."

"The only thing that I don't like would be the plastic housing!!"
