Whatever we say is not enough. Firstly, this is not just a macro lens, but an ultra macro lens that can achieve beyond the standard 1:1 magnification that all lenses have, with a 2:1 magnification. This allows the user to get much closer to the subject without the lens itself getting closer. This is achieved through its exceptional working distance. As for the colors, I cannot have a perfect opinion since the camera I have is quite old, but from what I have noticed so far, the colors are quite vibrant with minimal chromatic aberration, hence the APO designation. It should also be noted that the focus is completely manual and it does not have image stabilization, which may bother some people. Finally, the only thing that slightly bothered me was the weight, but you gradually get used to it. In conclusion, it is definitely worth the money, and I might even say that it is affordable for what it offers. P.S. I recommend getting it from abroad, which is what I did myself, as the price is lower
