I have enjoyed the image quality of the lens thus far but it is also quite challenging to get to 2x reproduction as you need to be very close to the subject. At that distance, lighting becomes very important.
Focus breathing, yes. That could make it challenging to stack.
Manual focus, yes. I am not sure why Amazon is asking me to rate the autofocus.

aperture ranges from 2.8 to 22.
Please note that this lense is completely manual and does not allow autofocus, with this lense being almost exclusively for macro photography this is not an issue at all.
Lense is made entirely from metal and feels premium.
Would recommend to anyone looking for a great macro lens.
Excellent for macros, with plenty of working distance in front of the sturdy metal lens hood. Really perfect for its tasks. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that I can’t get the lens hood to stay on when it’s reversed for storage. Minor inconvenience really. It’s always secure when mounted forward in normal use.

Downside is the complete manual use with any camera, although this brought me back to the old film days and a little more care in composition and lighting. This manual lens is fairly easy to adapt and use however, and it can't be beat for the price.
