Anybody have any experience with this lens?
I have the Sigma 150mm 2.8 which I love and the Nikon 60mm which I also love.
The 150 gives great working distance for small animals and the 60mm is just a joy and gives a little more play when handheld. Both Pat and I love shooting macro and I'm looking at one of the 90-105 lenses to give a little more working distance then the 60 but more handheld speed and sometimes too much working distance of the 150.
The Nikon 105 non-VR is more then I want to spend. The Sigma, Tonika and Tamron all have great reviews but still have me fence sitting on cost for basically a lens that I can live without.
I've seen the Vivitar come up a few times in the $100 plus range and wonder if it's worth the $.
A $100.00 paper weight is still a paper weight. I already have a $500 dollar one, Tonika 40-400, :frown:
Thanks
Rich
