    Great lens. It is a beast in low light. Also it is super light compared to the Mark 1. Im new to photography but this camera takes excellent photos. A little pricey but worth the money.

    What can I say? This lens is amazing (and for the price, it better be). It is sharp, fast, and the lightest 70-200 2.8 I have ever held. The performance in low light is stunning and the internal zoom is lovely

    Lens is top notch. Foucing is accurate and on point I love how clear my photos come out and the OSS really helps with the lower shutter speeds.

    Let’s get this out of the way, yes, this a lease that cost almost as much as the body I have it on (A7SIII). That being said, the results that are possible with this lens are phenomenal. Do not regret the purchase at all.
