good affordable macro

a small, lightweight lens with internal focusing and fixed front, capable of serving as focal normal course its first quality is its ability to close the photo and even truly macro (quite possible freehand because of the Focal moderate, but to truly master his image, consider a walk). It is supplied with a lens hood that completely protects the front lens and provides the use of a filter, if it (the diameter 49mm like several other objectives of the SEL series) is still desired, it can still get on the visor itself. We always get good photos at the center and its best results at F5.6 / F8. We can still argue that his is more open than 3.5, there is no stabilization and its focus distance to get the maximum magnification ratio implies that almost touches the front lens subject in the frame (hence a possible appearance of shadows and the need for a special visor) so it does not have all the kinds of macro shots (insects, for example). However I have, moreover, another lens (Canon) that easily escapes the criticism but it cost me almost four times more expensive ... so ...
