This telephoto lens was attractive to me for taking sporting photos as well as wildlife photos. The build quality of it seems great to me.

I accidentally bought the wrong mount and returned it. Should have just purchased an adapter. It was a good deal.

This was bulkier than I thought it would be so I took it back and got the 210.

I know I would rather have the zeiss version of this lens but for the price this is totally functional and acceptable and crispy. Since I am using this camera to shoot film it would be better to have an FE mount so that the noise from the autofocus would not affect my work.

I enjoy the Sony - Dt 55-300mm F/4.5-5.6 A-mount Telephoto Zoom Lens. It gives me a sharp capture of the image I shoot.

Hi kork, we're sorry to hear that you had to return the lens. The lens would fit the NEX7 when you attach an A-E-mount lens adaptor. Thanks_Mitch

Excellent second lens

I purchased this with the Sony-Alpha SLTA57K 16.1-Megapixel DSLR. The camera came with a 18-55mm lens, but this lens is an absolute must if you are taking any pictures other than close up. My children play soccer and basketball and I am able to get great pictures of them without blurring (which is why we went with a DSLR camera). I have even taken it to Columbus Crew Stadium with excellent results. You almost don't need your 18-55mm lens with this one, it covers that wide of a range.

Great lens. I bought the Sony alpha 65 package so the lens came with it. It is a great lens and now I don't have to buy another one.
