Hi,

I have bought this lens from the Evil Bay for not too expensive, and am in a process of testing it on my G1

Here's a few first shots !







More to follow !

hi rafael

colors are nice, but as i have this lens and an m4/3 2x crop factor cam, i know how hard it is to focus on these macro shots with a 240mm heavy lens.

i primarily use this lens on my ff 5d and really like it, esp for outdoor portraits. i find using anything close to 200mm on m4/3 for macro requires iso 400 to get really high SS. anyway, good luck, its a great lens.

Lokks good to me Raf, but isn't that quite a heavy and large lens??

Thanks for your comments, all of you !
Indeed, Klaus, the lens is big and heavy.
As I wrote somewhere else, "the G1 feels a little lost behind that lens" , but not as much as behind my Nikkor 300/2.8 of my Meade 1000/11

yes, that was my point re choice of subject above. because the lens is big and heavy relative to the cam (and w no IS), choosing portraits amd like subjects i think will yield better results than macro work...the lens is really a gem.
