I really like this lens -very versatile. I use it on a Konica-Minolta 5D, which I will upgrade to a Sony when they improve the noise issue. Back to the lens - sharp as a tack. Best aperature is about 5.6 at the wide end for sharpness, and f8 at the long end. Macro mode is rather awsome - good stand off, and fast enough to blur the background. Auto focus is quite fast and accurate, though not as quiet as a Nikon, for instance. With a 1.4x extender it provides an excellent "reach" for little money. Did I mention it is a superior optic? Nicely done, Sigma. Recommended.
