From the editor
The 35mm equivalent focal length of this lens is 91-95.5mm (depending on the sensor size). The lens can be used not only for macro photography with a magnification of 1:1 (life size) at the closest focusing distance of 0.26m, but also for portrait photography, since it has a fairly fast speed of F/2.8. With the dedicated close-up accessory, the magnification can be increased to 2:1 or even 3:1, but at the expense of losing the ability to focus at infinity. Weighing in at 550g, the lens is quite heavy, but macro photography is usually done on a tripod, so weight can be neglected in this case. When focusing at infinity, the front element is deeply recessed into the lens barrel, so the lens does not require a separate lens hood, and when focusing at the closest focusing distance of 0.26m, it extends slightly beyond the barrel (which can be seen in the main photo).
