I just acquired this lens as my new jack-of-all-trades lens to replace the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 that back-focused so badly that I couldn’t use it. So far, this lens seems to be a fairly sharp (not to pro levels) but capable walk-around lens with the added bonus of being able to do macro at a magnification ration of 1:2. Eventually a review will follow this post but I’m glad to have a new walk around lens now for general purposes.
