It focuses....
The lens is very light, so to focus, which does slow it down .
Pretty fast, for a macro.
Oh i used to have 1 of these but in different brand name, very sharp lens just like any macro, does! and how fast/slow the focus is?

Why not the PENTAX D FA MACRO 100mm F2.8 with WR use manual focus here...a class above is the zeiss 100mm but sadly i am unable to find a PK mount with nex7, m43 and others if desired.....
On Ebay which looks like pretty good value.
