Also the auto focus is not too slow or inaccurate. I've tested it for example for 90 minutes at a football match (with partially overcast skies) - in 90% of cases, the autofocus met exactly. The autofocus is indeed clearly heard 'distracts me but not from the subject from.' In addition, one is sure that the AF is activated)
Unfortunately I can not say as much to macro. Since I have not tested it extensively. I can only say as long as that of the switch for Normal / Macro position on the lens requires a bit of practice. ' Best read the operating instructions and 'practice'. Personally, I leave it in the normal position.
Further details that do not require details:
- Co-rotating filter ring (does not bother me because I do not use filters for this lens)
- Fits comfortably in your hand
- A little hard rotating zoom ring prevented but at the same that the tube extends in transporting themselves.
- Metal bayonet
- Supplied lens hood
Conclusion:
Price / performance ratio is here good to very good. Who photographed not much in the tele / macro scale, but these areas seeks to cover the emergency, will be satisfied with this lens.
