News The new Sony 100mm macro

My lens showed up yesterday and I really didn't get much time to play with it but did the basics to make sure that it was generally working as expected. From that I have a couple things of note:
1. As expected it is much faster focusing than the 90mm G
2. Focuses in lower light much better than the 90mm G - wasn't expecting this. I would get the purple box on objects with the 90mm but green with the 100GM at the same settings. Thought maybe it was just because I was using the A1 but happened with the A1ii as well.
3. The full-time DMF doesn't work the way I expected it too. I was expecting it to automatically bring up the focusing zoom box when I rotated the focusing ring. This could be a setting change that needs to be made.
Did decide to order a skin for the lens, going with Shadow Blossum
