Tokina 100mm f/2.8 AT-X M100 AF Pro D Macro AF Lens

I would like some feed back on this lens. I will be doing a lot of travel in the next year or so in Australia with a camper and 4x4. I have a short tele, a wide angle and the 50mm. On the wife's canon she has and old 75-300mm and the 18-55mm. I am looking for a macro for the small stuff so I would like your views on this lens. Like all of us, the budget is not that flash.

I haven't used one but it reviews quite well (http://www.photozone.de/canon-eos/270-tokina-af-100mm-f28-at-x-pro-d-macro-canon-review--test-report) at Photozone and after a quick look at prices around the net it seems to be very competitive against the rest of the field in that focal length.

I find it an amazing lens that out performs my Nikon 105 micro in a lot of circumstance.
