The autofocus is inaccurate, slow-ish and noisy. The lens barrel is more loose than the women on hastings and main. There's no focus distance meter. I 'enjoyed' it when I had it, but I certainly don't miss it.

I sold it for 100 bucks but in all honesty, what's 100 bucks? I wish I had kept it just so I could absolutely destroy it in some grand fashion. Or maybe keep it for a lens that I'd shoot in any conditions with.
What do you expect from a 100 dollar lens?

I agree with the autofocus though.
