Retest on the D7000, text is mostly an exact copy of the earlier D200-based review:

My experiences with this lens are that the AF is not reliable at F/2 and the AF speed and precision is not comparable to the AF-S micro nikkors. But the resolution is very good "near infinity focus".

Very interesting again would be the performance at 1:5-1:1.

Testing at macro distances is not possible at this stage.

Looks like an excellent lens, and reportedly compatible with aps-h to boot. I was thinking about one. Thanks for the review!

It is said that its focus performance is poor (slow and lack of accuracy, can be seen from lenstip's review).And in your review it shows issues of underexposure, I wonder how serious it is. The Nikon edition seems better than Canon one,is it? Finally, when will the review of Tokina M35 pro come? <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Rolleyes' />

I tried this lens today during a local photo fair on 1D Mark II N, and was very impressed. It's very sharp in the center - almost too sharp according to the unwilling model <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' /> Despite being nominally APS-C it works on APS-H without excess vignetting. AF is very quiet but hunts sometimes due to lack of focus limiter. FTM is a great feature. The body is very slick looking as well. Do want. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Smile' />
