Gents: Would this be a good lens to have? And at what reasonable price?




Also, I have a lead on a Sonnar 200mm f/2.8 maybe for around $200 ish. Seems like a good price, although more than I typically spend on a lens.

Very sharp, contrasty, macro 1:1.

Bokeh isn't bad, but highlights are affected by its hexagonal aperture. CA is lower than on Vivitar Macro 55/2.8, but higher than on S-M-C Macro Takumar 50/4 or Volna-9 50/2.8.

It's very good a very nice lens which is valued by collectors, too. But if you have e.g. the takumar, lanthar, planar or similar level macro lens, it won't give you better results Smile
