Is it the 70 or the 105? Images show 70mm.
All the gear with no idea

Interesting.... I have thought about picking this lens up. How long have you had it for? Have you liked it?

Title changed, a little late! If anything ever needs correcting then just let me know.

Great price for a reputedly very good lens. I've wondered how this compared to the DA 70mm limited as 70mm lenses are few and far between.

Indeed! I'd have had this myself if I'd seen it sooner
When I do find one, I'd expect to have to shell out rather more for it...

Wow! That was cheap

No aperture ring though which is restrictive for a macro lens.

It would be restrictive for macro for anyone using contactless ext tubes, all bellows and anyone using butchered zoom methods / setups.
I know what i like, If not always why.
