Quick comment on the website: I had to look FAR too hard for the "pages 1 2 3 4 >>" stuff. I assumed your review was simply of the aesthetics of the lens. Just a simple fix to move it up before the "related posts" section and adding a bit of space below it to separate the article from the list.

As for the lens: looks like it should: Good control of CA, nice smooth bokeh, sharp where it needs to be. Looks funny and seems like it would be an odd weight-pairing with the A55, but to each their own.

Thanks Osmosis for your comments and feedback about the site I wish I new how to move the pages on the bottom like you suggested, but I only have a few placement options it seems in the plugin that creates those page #'s. My site is a wordpress site if you can help if you know any tricks.

As far as the lens goes, It is definitely heavy for the A55, but I'm very used to using a large lens like this on my other cameras, so it really just felt a bit lighter to me. One of my hands was usually on the lens and the other on the camera. I did notice the balance was pretty much all lens, but it didn't bother me as much as you might think

Best,
