Better then I expected!!
I have been playing with wildlife photography for about 5 years now. Prior to this lens I was using the Tameron 70 to 200 with a 2X tele-converter great set up, but the tele-converter slowed the focus down, meaning I took a lot of shots with no guarantee they would be sharp. Not a problem with this lens. It was awesome right out of the box, and for the price there isn’t a better option I’ve found.

Great Lens
I'm always looking to get the shot. So before my trip to Maine I wanted to get a long lens to put on my second camera. (I always carry 2 both with different lenses) The 95 mm. optics are larger than the filters I own and all I could find in town (day before I left) was a cheap really cheap polarizer.($50) It helped cut through the early morning fog, but it would keep the picture from being tack sharp. Bottom line great lens if you use filters buy the good ones. At full length 600 mm you should use a tripod. This is a heavy lens it can be hard to hand hold shots
