It is excellent. The sharpness will amaze you.
If I had to point out the weaknesses: to put the lens in manual focus you have
to press the ring -and- switch the camera to MF. It may flare, all macros have
a tendency to flare if used as short telephoto. Use the hood.
but the sharpness....will spoil you, you will wish all your lenses to be
equally sharp. no distortions, no problems at f32 - 22.
I tried the nikkor also. In my opinion get the sigma. >>>
I'm surprised! I've always thought that 3rd party lenses were always poorer than Nikon
lenses.
Specially when compared to beloved Nikkor 105/2.8 Micro.
I intend to buy the MF Nikkor 105/2.8 Micro in the near future, but it is the second
time I read
someone saying that the Sigma EX 105/2.8 Macro is better.
What do the rest of you nikoners think of this?
