Satisfied with the purchase one hundred percent, I recommend the product for everyone.

I have been using this lens since 2022. I use it mainly for standard macro (insects, snails, dew / drops, flowers, etc.), where a scale of more than 1: 1 is not required. The minimum focal length for macro is generally sufficient, although especially shy "models" may fly away or run away. Sharpness is good, autofocus is fast and (almost always) accurate, although it is better to shoot the same dew and static objects in manual mode, after setting the camera on a tripod (and also turning off the stabilizer). For the entire period of use, there were no technical problems with this lens, no backlash is observed.

Sample photos are attached to the review.

Pros

1. Excellent sharpness and color reproduction. 2. Fast and accurate autofocus. 3. Focus distance range switch. 4. Stabilization. 5. Increased level of protection against water and dust. 6. Hood and case included. 7. Versatility (can be used not only for macro photography).

Cons

For seven years, I have not found any shortcomings, everything is still fine. Good and reliable lens.
