One of the cheapest lens on market. Not an SP version.
Taken with Nikon D50.

Seriously, the lens performance is not impressive. Besides, the white birds look overexposed, the metering is not working on a D50 with MF lenses, am I right? _________________ Markku

Yes, D50 has no metering. I think this is rather mater of taste than metering problem with DSLR, I like these pictures and lens performance too. _________________ -------------------------------

I think the 103A is among the most under-rated lenses on the planet. SO cheap to buy, but such great performance. I have the 03A and that is very impressive, the 103A is even better.
I had so many of these, I started giving them away as a free gift when I sold lenses on ebay. It got rid of them all really quick, and added to the nice feedback comments |

Agreed - I've gone through quite a few that came with mounts I wanted and have kept the best example. A great budget elns _________________ Film... and sometimes SD14, 5D2 and some other suff! |

One of my favourite lenses, still. I have both 70-210 SP models, but the 103A is still lighter and constantly performs. I love it! Not as much as cake, but I still love it _________________ Graham - Moderator

The 103A is a definite unsung hero, but I think there's a bit of copy variation - I've seen results from them every bit as good as its SP brother, and sometimes it isn't as good as it should be. _________________ Dave - Moderator
