ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | Sony 70-200mm G, Sony 70-400mm G |
price paid: | 800 (used) |
positive: | Build, quiet SSM, Exc. Iq, Easier to handle than 70-400, more reach than 70-200, Full Frame or APS-C, works with tele converter. |
negative: | None |
comment: | Great lens on the A-580 and A77. Well balanced, quick to focus, easy to get sharp photos of still and or motion shots. Main use is for Soccer and birding but find that it is on my camera most of the time. Money well spent for a great outdoor lens that should last a long time. Big plus is that I bought this lens (used)?? however it was brand new unopened in the box. |
