Hello Charles,
I've tested it on my *ist D but I did no side by side comparison
with any other zoom lens, just a quick comparison with the FA
85/1.4 (at 85mm, of course...). The FA* lens performed a little
better, but not that much. If you are looking at a affordable,
non AF lens with constant aperture in this zooming range I guess
it may be the right choice.
I do also own the M 80-200/4.5, a really good performer, at
least on film (it is smaller - not much, but enough - and
lighter). I didn't try it on the *ist D, though, so cannot
comment.
Ciao,
Gianfranco
