I really didn't like the 28-200 when I got it, focusing was just so slow and only hit about 1/4 shots for what I wanted to focus on. Not sure why that is, could purely be human error.
Anyway; did some tests today after I discovered what the LIMIT/FULL switch does. Focusing time halved on things 2ft to Infinity. Apparently due to the gearing on the thing it takes just as long to focus from min distance to 2ft as it does 2ft to infinity, and cycled through the WHOLE range when trying to focus. The limit switch just cuts off min to 2ft.
Anyway; it's pretty darn sharp, albeit a bit slow on shutter speed. Negated with flash though. :D
These shots were both taken at minimum focusing distance, at 28 and 200mm respectively. Flash bounced off ceiling.
