I have one of these. Optically it can't be faulted. Mechanically is a 
different thing. I don't like the MF/AF clutch thingy. You press forward 
for MF (or is it AF? I can't remember), and the opposite for the other. I 
find myself getting frustrated using it, which is a pity, as it takes 
lovely photographs. I still miss my lost SMC-F 50 1:2.8 macro. :-)
