Best lens in the world!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely amazing. Having owned and shot Nikon, Canon, Fuji, and Leica this lens is what I consider to be perfection(aside from the price lol) This lens is prime lens image quality in a telephoto package. You could use this lens to shoot a wedding, family outing or pets. The fact it can be used with a teleconverter is a bonus as well. This lens has incredibly fast autofocus motors and image stability. Weather sealing and the fact it has an internal zoom is gives you a peace of mind that no matter where you take it this lens is absolutely protected. The focus ring and zoom ring is butter smooth. This lens can complete a photographers kit and replace multiple other lenses all in one package. The sharpness is just on another level completely, I can crop in and make a photo taken from a distance look like a macro shot. Sony did some wizadry when they cooked this boy up. This is the type of lens you own for 10-15 years because its hard to imagine it could ever be improved on.

Worth every penny!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical about the reviews until I actually pulled the trigger and bought it. Big upgrade compared to the previous version. Not only is it lighter but it focuses faster too.

Faster, sharper, lighter
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazingly light compared to version 1. I love having the aperture ring on the lens to go along with my primes. It’s super sharp, fast AF, and now at a weight I don’t mind carrying all day.

Best lens ever.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow! All I can say is wow! I’ve been a photographer my entire life and this lense is a game changer. I took it out of the box, attached it to my camera and went to take photos of my daughter’s lacrosse game. Now it looks like I really know what I’m doing.

Aperture precision is amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens captures amazing pictures. The quality is super sharp. I used the 24-240 OSS lens and that usually has an issue getting to 3.5 beyond 100mm zoom. But this lens has amazing precision on aperture even at 200mm. My life has changed

Best overall lens
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took this out on a trip to china and korea and it was amazing. Sure it’s on the heavier side for travel but the pictures you get makes it worth it. Just bring a peak design clip and you should be fine. The pictures are sharp and the auto focus is lightning fast. You will not be disappointed if you pair this lens with an a7rv or another newer body.

The only telephoto zoom lens you need!!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 70-200 has been nothing short of amazing! The weight of the lens was super shocking! I thought it would be heavier because of the build, but it’s actually easy to carry for the day! The images that come out are astonishing! At 2.8-4.0 the bokeh is unmatched! Extremely happy I got this lens!

No complaints here
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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
