    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.

    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.

    Just can't stop taking pictures with this lens using Aperture 1.8 2 to 3 feet away beautiful pictures happen. The blur affect in the back ground brings out your subject beautifully.

    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.
