It's a good, constant aperture zoom lens. Well built, optically a good
performer. Mine has shown no mechanical problems as of yet. The
disadvantages are weight, 67mm filters, and a large minimum focus distance,
leading to always having to change into the "macro" mode in order to get
close. Price seems to be about $150-$200. I paid $175 for mine.
