    Strength:

    Sharp all the way to the corners. Tough to beat at any cost and impossible to do as well for the same price.

    Weakness:

    Longest shutter speed is 1 sec. After that, you're exposing with a stop watch. Not a big deal with the K/L lenses as you can use the "B" port on the lense to close the shutter without touching the camera. Really helps with 2-3 sec shutter speeds. Not so with the earlier "C" lenses where you have to twist the shutter dial or press the cocking lever.

    Wow. My wife and I are hiking hounds and tried this lense out at Yankee Boy basin in Ouray, CO during the wildflower peak. Just awesome. Don't settle for the "C" lense--get the newer K/L. Also, if you purchase used, be sure to also get instructions (or do a web search) as the front collar does more than just tell you depth of field--it moves additional lenses inside and makes a big difference.

    Customer Service

    KEH has never let me down. If anything their condition ratings are high (which is a great surprise when the equipment shows up)

    Similar Products Used:

    "C" lense 90. K/L 180.
