Mine seemed to kick in at around 1:5. At lower magnifications than that, 
it was an excellent lens.

I just couldn't see the point of keeping an expensive "macro" lens that 
didn't live up to the name. With 50/3.5, 135/4.5, 90/2.5 Tamron, 105/2.8 
Kiron macros and 85/2 and 100/2.8*, I just didn't see where the 90/2 
added anything useful for me. I've since added the 80/4 Auto real macro. 
And a wonderful 90/2.8 Tamron AF macro for Canon FF.

90/2 moved on to someone who used it.
