I got it. I love it. I can't stop using it.

Its a bit on the heavy side compare to my other lenses, but other than that I have no complaints.

MIGAR - have you tried any (real) close focusing with it yet? Do you get true 1:1 size? The specs say 2:1, but my (confused) thinking considers the 2:1 crop factor compensates and results in 1:1 focusing.

But I could be wrong. Just wanted to know your impressions. Also, how close are you to the subject when you are doing close focusing work?

Thanks,

Can I ask what you paid for it? I imagine the prices are fairly constant across the board. I'd love to have one.
