The goat!! The absolute goat— this is the perfect lens to add to your kit. This lens has made my photography life so much easier. Especially in big events. Shot a concert with this the other day and absolutely loved it.

The quality of the photos taken are clean and awesome. Fits perfectly onto my Sony a7 iii and super durable. Perfect for low light photography, and it is versatile to use more than just sporfs photography.

This lens is beast within itself!!! I was looking for a Lens to shoot my daughter’s basketball game so that I can freeze her in motion with no blur effecting my photos and I’m not a Professional photographer by any means but because of her injuries she hasn’t been able to play summer ball. I have gotten other pic and the G-class is faster than the human eye. It will stop what your aiming for while it’s in motion, can’t wait until she healthy again because I know these will be some awesome photos.

After many YouTube videos and informative websites about camera lenses I decided to buy this lens. I haven’t had it for to long but so far It’s fast, and it takes amazing photos. Great multipurpose lens. I have taken some surf sunset photos. Images were sharp and reliable out of this lense. In the future I hope to do some portraits and landscape photis real soon. Highly recommend this lens for people looking for an amazing Telephoto lens. You get what you pay for, I don’t regret this purchase.

I helped my partner obtain this lens to get into the professional field of photography. Now her shots look straight from a magazine. It’s quite a hefty lens but it’s build quality is superior. Great lens paired with the Sony a6100.

This is a fantastic lens from Sony for Sony mirrorless cameras. I took a few shots using this lens of the moon, and the image quality was awesome. Do buy the latest version of this lens( mark II), if you are out on the market for a lens hunt.

Incredibly sharp images even in low light conditions. I have it paired with an a7c. I'd give it 5 stars but its super heavy so for long sessions i have to use at least a mono pod
