build quality--not so EX!
By kubaVerified Purchaser from jersey city, nj on 2/5/2007
Pros:
11 macro, Fast f28 aperture, Sharp wide open
Cons:
Build quality, Mechanics
Best Uses:
Concerts live shows
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

after a couple of months of using the focusing mechanism was broken. repaired twice (warranty service). now it's broken again, out of warranty. this is not EX quaity lens. you expect EX lens to be well built--not breaking down after a couple of months of using. great optics, sharp even wide open but how am I gonna use it when there's no focusing??
