Rated 5 out of 5 stars by 21 users at B&H Photo Video

"I've been using this lens for approximately three weeks now and am thrilled so far. The images are super-sharp at f5.6 and the f2.8 is great for twilight shots of our pets. The color rendition is super."

"I am using this macro mostly for close-up of flowers and find it does a great job. It is a nice bright, sharp lens."

"Its focussing speed being a tad on the slow side, however, that is quite normal for macro lenses."
