high quality optics but can be a bit slow

Very good resolution and imaging but depending on how you use autofocus it could be a little too slow for you. Using limited focussing range by setting the slider so it does not cover the entire range of ditances from close up to infinity helps a lot. As a standard lens it is light and very useful. As a macro lens it works well but be prepared to get up close to your subject.

Value for money

it helps when there's a macro. you don't know when you'll need it. good for photography but not necessary a great one for video as there's noise during focusing. Wished it was a F1.8 lens though.

Very handy

At 50mm this doubles as a normal lens, plus the field of view makes shooting down on the ground stuff very doable. As opposed to the 70 & 90mm close ups on the market which don't have a usable field of view shooting straight down.

Versatile Lens

Good lens. Versatile albeit slow to focus... but that is expected of a Macro Lens.

Versatile and light weight

Very versatile lens and great image quality. Macro handheld is challenging with shaky hands. This lens also trains your photography eye and positioning for the best outcome. I find using this lens in MF is very easy to use and smooth operation. Great for portrait and macro with fast hands for moving subject.

Light and reasonably compact lens

I brought this lens recently and I am finding my way with it . I found it is best left on AFA other wise the lens keeps hunting to focus unless you use manual focus. I must say it take’s some great photos it works best at 0 to 3 meters or full its a great lens and i am very pleased with it . My camera is a A6500 .
