    Strength:

    Light in weight compared with other medium format tele lens. Also, reasonable price, around US$1500

    Weakness:

    still bulky size.
    The optical quality is not as good as other 645 FA lens

    Most Pentax SMC lens provide great colour reproduction, but the colour reproduction of this lens is not as good as other FA lens and the sharpness of lens is only average especially at the corners. Since Pentax 645n don't have mirror lock up functions, it must be careful with the vibrations with long exposure. However, its price and weight is the best compared with all medium format tele lens.
