Customer Reviews

I bought this lens too take pictures of primates in Kenya, and it works great in well lit outdoor conditions with a tripod. This lens is way to large for indoor use, and does not render photos well with out ample light. This is not an auto focus lens so get good at focusing it. Also you will have to set your DSLR to full manual to use it. My biggest problem is that all of the fstop numbers and focal lengths are at the bottom of the lens, but then again I'm looking through a viewfinder so it doesn't really matter.
Not for beginners, but its a steal if you are willing to work with it.
Also fast shipping was a plus.

I don't really agree with the other review. I did sell my lens but I did not have problems with the picture quality at all. You have to really be careful though how you set all of the settings to get pictures really far away to come in clear. This is a professional lens, and it does take some knowledge to use. As far as cheap, I do not for one minute think that this lens is cheap. It is built very well. As far as not being able to take pictures in the dark like the other review said, my God you are shooting so far away you would have to have football stadium lights for a flash if you wanted to light up the place in the dark. I really liked the lens pretty good. My only complaint is that it is heavy and you need a good tripod not some cheap piece of junk.
