Pros: Masterpiece of optics. Minimum focus distance of 1.5m. Weight and footprint less than targets of the same rank.

Cons: It's MF and the perfect fire is hard.

Opinion: For seven years I have given myself this 1994 gem that I use with nikon f bayonet. The conversion was very simple and completely reversible, with the bayonet dedicated only to the 180 cron that I found there is no game. Designed as a medium-distance superluminous, it is a very sharp "extreme" portrait lens in the very thin focus plane with a sea of apochromatic bokeh that I personally find very pleasant. In the focus plan it gives results similar to the 100 2.8 macro apo of the same stable. Already very sharp in TA the microcontract improves decidedly to 2.8. The minimum distance of 1.5m focus gives spectacular close-ups even if at this distance, the depth of field is so critical that it is almost impossible to bring home perfect results without closing at least one stop.
