The lens has a very wide focusing collar that facilitates use as a manual focus lens. This collar slides (click positions) slightly forward or back to engage and disengage the manual focus and when disengaged it allows the lens to auto focus without rotating the collar. I like this feature but some on the list disagree ...the feel in manual focus is like a manual focus lens.
I have four of the EX series Sigma lenses and rate them all very highly. I might also mention that I had started acquiring these lenses before I got my MZ-S and entered the world of auto focus. With the exception of family snapshots, I still shoot all my photo's with gear mounted on a tripod and focused manually. Cheers, Mike. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
