Sony SAL-100M28 100mm f/2.8 AF Macro Autofocus Lens

This lense, so far, perfoems better than expected.

So far I love it. Have only been able to play with it for a few minutes. Can't wait to have more time and really explore all that it can do

It is the only lens you will need to cover all your nside needs.It is compact, fast and silent, so you can take it with you in a small pounch, no need to carry other lens.You may use it in automatic mode for great portrait and manual for special effect with shades and shadows.

Nice lens, good contrast , but quite a bit of focus hunting in my lens! Light weight lens and feels cheep but I am very satisfied results with the resulting images.
