This innocuous little non pro lens, cheap to buy, and is the middle version '91-'94 of the 3 AF 35-105 lenses, does rather better than perhaps many think.
I feel its done a stirling job. While not being the last word in macro, ( its called a macro but it isnt - surely no one these days is taken in by marketing BS ? ) it performs admirably as a close up. And while not being the last word as a portrait lens, it has also stepped up to the mark, with a pine cone ...my portrait subject. Where is everybody when you need them ?
And lastly, while not being the last word in landscape, at a push it can again step up, bearing in mind its lack of decent W/A FL
Its never going to replace any of the prime W/A , Portrait or Macros, but it still earns its rather easily affordable purchase price
