Very nice, Fons! I'm considering getting that lens and apart from macro I also want to use it for landscapes - seems to be a very fine lens for that purpose.   

[Fons Baerken]

Lars, indeed its a really fine landscaper, as a macro its far more tricky to use in my experience!

Many thanks Fons - I tried the lens 3 weeks ago and there wasn't many macro keepers - especially AF in low light, but in general it's probably also better to use MF for macro.

Macro is manual focus.

Sorry to say, but I'm rather concerned about the apparently quite damaged smartphone in the background.

I can assure you Akira the phone is still in fine working order
