Lovely set from a fun lens. I always found the handling a little odd, but it never failed to deliver nice shots. What are your thoughts on the handling?

Well, I find the handling quite OK, since I prefer zoom lenses with separate commands for focus and focal length variation for the kind of pictures I'm using the lens for (mainly close-up and near macro in the wild). Nethertheless, the length and the weight of the S1 90-180 mm force me to use it mostly with a monopod and the IBIS of my A7 II since movement blur is very quick to creep into the pictures. For landscapes, I prefer either fixed focal length tele lenses or tele zoom lenses with better aberration correction near infinity. But even then, the 90-180 mm is far from bad once stopped down a little bit (f/8 or, better, f/11).
