First shots with the A200 + The Beercan
Finally got a chance to try this fella and I'm in love...>20 years old lens and works like a charm, fast AF and quite sharp results...
Some users complain about the weight, but I think that it's only a good thing, ok perhaps not, if your neck is like a pencil, but for the rest of us, no problemo.
Some purple here...but you just can't get everything.

And few more...
Not a perfect bokeh, but still nice
Nice colors also, I'm more than happy to own this lens, but first it was a difficult task to get used to that 70mm minimum, like tried to focus closer than 50cm etc and tried to take landscape shot, but instead got only a narrow piece of that. :)

Looks like you have a winner of a lens. I enjoyed the whole group and the purple does not distract at all.

Thanks Royston, I'm quite happy about the lens myself and hope to get that in action again, hopefully during this weekend already.
