Been wanting this lens for 6 years and finally broke down and bought it - very worth it... just have to get used to it especially when taking up close pictures it looks "zoomed in" so need to get comfortable with it but overall it takes great pictures!
I would recommend this to a friend

Part of my kit lense was this. This particular lense made me realize that I do have to take a step back (or a few). Photos come out crisp and sharp.

Recently purchased this lens for my sony camera. Immediately took it on a trip to Montana and got the most beautiful landscape pictures. One of my favorite was of an eagle perched high above in the top of a tree - I felt like I could reach out and touch him. Another of my daughter walking through water where you can actually see each droplet of water.

Bought this lens to go with my Sony alpha a7 mirrorless camera. I am very pleased with the quality of pictures it can take when it comes to zooming in. Extremely clear, so editing doesn’t take as long. Very very happy with this purchase for sure. Attached is one of the pictures I took with this awesome lens.

I had purchased this lense along with Sony A5000 and I was never disappointed. It allows you to take amazing pictures even if there’s a bit of a distance between you and yoursubject.

Great zoom. Stabilizer is a great aid. Excellent photo quality. It only feels fragile because of the plastic. But good finishes. Personally I'd recommend not to push it's limits compared with a WR lense.

The telephoto lens is really nice for zooming in on areas that you want to focus on that are farther away. It doesn’t distort the photo which is always nice.
