I had this lens, and it is nice and sharp, but, like all macro lenses, it is very slow to focus. As such, it was not as useful as a portrait lens: the 56mm f1.2 is vastly, vastly superior for that purpose (more expensive too ). The extended zoom, 18-135 can provide 0.24 magnification, so I ended using it as a somewhat replacement to the 60mm macro for some purposes (flowers, etc). A real 1X macro will be a completely different beast...
Just remember folks - just like a lot of macro lenses out there, although it's billed as being a macro lens it isn't "true" macro, i.e. not 1:1 magnification. It's 1:2, so keep that in mind. The only AF true macro lens for Fuji right now is the Zeiss Touit 50mm f2.8, although there is an 80mm f2.8 XF macro coming from Fuji soon.
It's still a nice lens, just something to keep in mind when considering this one.
