You do have to watch out for flare and general contrast reduction when 
shooting into a bright light source, and it's essential to use the 
suppliee lens hood. It has a very large focussing ring and a good feel 
for manual focus. You have to slide the ring to disengage the AF, and 
also use the switch on the body.

Bother, and I just let one of these go for about $30 today!!! Bother, 
bother!

Well, I do want to add a thank you to all who replied. I've got a lot 
of options and I'm loaded for bear now.... :-)
