iangreenhalgh1, and Rino I agree with you both. I really like this lens, but it's definetly not very sharp, but I think it's other attributes makes up for that.
Here is a Bokeh shot: 135mm at f3.5.
Minature Garden Phlox
Minature Garden Phlox Crop

I like that shot of the purple flower very much walter, in that one you have avoided the weaknesses (lack of sharpness, busy bokeh) ad produced an image that is very nice indeed, well done.
I like excalibur's shots, especally the second for it's tonality and colours.
So I also like this lens and as you say, it has some weaknesses but so do most lenses unless they cost a lot of money...
I would definitely use this lens to shoot colourful subjects where sharpness was not critical, could be very good for carnivals and other colourful events.
