I know not a highly regarded lens. I wanted something I could easily take on walks with my dog that had some reach and I didn't care about it getting scratched up in the brush. Managed to find one on Ebay for $160. Its light, easy to handle but slow focusing so AF-C and CH are definately out. For quick shots with some reach I am quite happy with it. Not the sharpest and some of these are still pretty heavily cropped but it serves its purpose for me.
I know you say not the sharpest, but honestly several of these look great! I've seen other samples also of this lens and they're surprisingly sharp - I think this is one of those sleeper lenses that punches above its weight.
If I didn't already have the 55-200, I'd probably pick this one up!
