Pros: Overall excellent performance

Cons: Weight

Opinion: It is a perspective on which there is little to say except that together with the SL3 it renders files that printed give a unique satisfaction. Colors, contrast, sharpness, etc. everything at its best. The only flaw is the weight but it is obvious that the glass weighs heavily. Let's say that given the results the weight is forgotten. The focal length from 90 reaches 280 is very interesting because it covers a range that is used in most cases. If associated with the 24/90 the circle closes and with two lenses you do everything.
