Great lens for the price!

I found this lens to be very good for the price I paid for it. I am just getting into photography and I had been reading up on this lens on some websites.I ordered it from 42nd st photo in New York for 199.95 but I got a carrying case with it and a lens guard and a lens wiping cloth. I really like the macro that you can do with the lens .Since I got it though it's been raining and snowing and I haven't got to take it outside yet!

So I guess we will see how it does then.I have it on a digital rebel 8.0 and it is very heavy now with this added on, so you have to be very careful with the camera.
