Review is for the new Mk2 Macro version.
Chose this lense over the more expensive Nikkor, definately a little disappointed and would have rather of gone for the more expensive Nikkor if i knew the lense was going to be soft at f2.8, which is the main thing i wanted from the lens. The lense is built solidly and performs pretty good as a 70-200mm f4 lense but wouldn't use it as an f2.8 lense with how soft it is.
Selling as soon as i can and paying the extra for the Nikkor.
Camera used on is a D300.
