    I purchased this as a used piece and the quality assurance I received and the expert advice from the photography staff was fantastic. I was worried about the purchase and the employee opened up the box and verified its condition in front of me. It was extremely nicer

    This lens is great for taking pictures of things that are farther than your eyes can see. The quality of the picture is great, even when fully zoomed in.

    Wow never thought I'd own a telephoto lens but it sure is sweet. The zoom is rediculous and incredibly clear. Got it in a package deal with Canon Rebel T6i.

    You really don't have to ask that question with this lense. It will give you great telephoto shots as well as very good close macros. A very good EF-S lense.
