Short focusing long range winner
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is great. It’s short focusing distance along with the long focal almost mimics a macro lens, and 400mm gets you quite a view. Coupled with one of Sony’s high megapixel R series cameras, you are sure to have a winner.

Great lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had a great experience with the Sony lenses! Sharp, quality images. It is tricky with the manual focus since there isn’t an actual gauge on the lens as other companies like Canon, but its the new era of making lenses with the electronic manual in the camera itself. I guess I’m from the old school.

Sony's best zoom lens for travel.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a well built lens and serves as a good walk around lens. It is a bit expensive and not as sharp as it's big brother the 200-600mm which serves as the better choice for birding and wildlife photography.

Good lens, horrible to bring with me.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of it is really good lens when actually taking pictures, BUT it does have one MAJOR flaw. The zoom expands by gravity when carrying lens and camera. It is extremely annoying and causes issues ALL the time for me. The simpler G 70-200 is much easier to deal with this way. My older Canon lenses do not have this issue either.
