Artur,

I'm using an older version of this lens--the 90/2.5.  And I'm quite happy
with the results.  It is my only macro lens so I have nothing to compare it
with.  As a portrait lens it is excellent.  I also use an EOS 100/2, which I
find outstanding in terms of contrast and sharpness; it would be really
interesting to compare the two scientifically.  From the tests I've read
(including Gary Reese's), the Tamron does well.

Hope this is a help.
Glen
