Review: I purchased this lens in 2004. I already had another lens of the same focal length from a third party manufacturer. The quality of the photos, both in sharpness and color saturation, is excellent. What I really am impressed with is the low distortion when using the lens at 28mm and up close, say for a small group. I also like the close focusing. This lens is sharper than my third party lens and it has faster focusing as well. All photos were taken with a Nikon F5 camera. If you end up getting this lens, you will be pleased with the results. For an all around lens, this one makes sense. I also like the lens hood, in that it bayonets on and off and can be stored upside down on the lens when not in use.
