Product Description

To achieve an F2.8 aperture at all focal lengths, it employs three aspherical Lens to provide optimum aberration compensation. Two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements are provided for color aberration compensation, to assure high image quality. It incorporates "Super Multi Layer Coating" to reduce the influence of harmful light caused by reflections from the digital image sensor. Two SLD elements, one Glass Mold Aspherical plus two Hybrid Aspherical lenses provide excellent correction of various aberrations and a high level of optical performance. The lens has a minimum focusing distance of 40cm (15.7 inches) at all focal lengths and is capable of macro photography with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8.

Strengths:    F 2.8, looks professional, range 24-70

Weaknesses:    Heavy - 700 grams

Bottom Line:   
Good lens, fast enough with f2.8. The dowside is that it is teribly heavy. The filter sise is 82mm. Some flare if you take a picture against the light. Reasonably wide on my Sony 200.
