Effectively this is the deal with this lens, it's pretty ordinary performance, optical old style, CAs and bokeh fringing, when not set against the recent competition at a price of $800 it would look good, but set against the Sigma at a tad over half the price, it's standing there with it's pants round it's ankles!
Pretty embarrassing for Nikon.
Thanks! Timely for me, I was considering this lens.
