Does anyone on the list have this lens?
I've been looking for a test on the web
but can't find one.

Don,
I have this lens and it is for sale. It is not bad for a starter lens.
Can't really comment on how it performs at wide open, etc. since I
haven't used it much. It does have macro focusing and seemed to
produce pretty good images from my *istDS. I haven't been using it
since I've become an FA snob. I bought it new in a kit with the 70-300
Super Macro II. I see them on eBay all the time on Buy It Now, but most
of the time for too much money. One nice thing about (or not so nice
depending on how you look at it) is its lightweight. Here are a couple
shots taken with it:

Hope that helps,
