Thanks Ortego. I'm interested that you said this lens is relatively rare in achieving good focus... I found mine was easy to get many tack sharp pictures... I'm using A850, and the auto focus works well with this lens. It's a true gem... hope you can get yourself one soon :-)

Very nice capture with excellent colors, lighting and comp. Its not often that I see good focus with this particular lens. Would love to own it just the same.
