fastest zoom lenses

"A gem...Not bad...Light weight and faster....this is not a bad lens a little better then the kit lens, if your gonna spend 350$ on this you should just pay a couple more 100 to get the g lens, unless this is your budget, does a good job and focus is quick, but at max zoom its not at clear."

"Light weight and faster."

"Love it...Love it....great lens, great pictures, faster, clear, and powerfull...It has a 4 group optical zoom system and includes a large-diameter element, an aspherical lens element, a UD lens element and enhanced lens coatings for high-contrast, high-resolution images with minimal glare and aberration."

"great lens, great pictures, faster, clear, and powerfull"

"In love...Love it...It is lighter, faster, and better optics....I'm not great at writing reviews but here's a summary of my friend's view on the lens (he is a professional photographer, a real one, haha): Pros - smaller, lighter lens with improved weight distribution."

"It is lighter, faster, and better optics."

"Love it!...Loved it!...Focus was faster, cleaner, sharper....This is a necessary lens for professionals that need a relatively quiet, fast acting lens."

"Focus was faster, cleaner, sharper."

"Great Lens...Great lens!...Hands-down the sharpest in fastest canyonlands iPhone to date a definite must have entered photographers bag...Canon makes a great lens and I continue to learn and appreciate photography."

"Not Bad...Love it...I will definitely be looking at faster lenses when I am ready to branch out and purchase additional lenses....This is a step above a kit lens and adds a great range for me while not having to change out lenses for distance and wide shots as much."

"I will definitely be looking at faster lenses when I am ready to branch out and purchase additional lenses."

"Love it...4 stars...I want a lens that closes in on its subject slowly and smoothly and this lens does it a little faster than I'd like....The good things about this lens are that it's well built, it has an electronic zoom, so that you can zoom much more smoothly during a video clip, it has a nice zoom range up to 105 mm that gives quite a bit more zoom than a standard zoom."

"I want a lens that closes in on its subject slowly and smoothly and this lens does it a little faster than I'd like."

"Love it...Holy cow...Bokeh is quite pleasing (obviously faster primes will outperform for shallower DOF)....This lens would be a valuable asset for any photographer and a must have if you are thinking of switching to a Sony system."

"Bokeh is quite pleasing (obviously faster primes will outperform for shallower DOF)."

"In love...Nice one...I rarely shoot at shutter speeds below 1/30 seconds, therefore, do not care for vibration reduction but it will be nice to have it for night shots and to pickup ambient light at slower shutters....Use the lens on my Nikon D810 and it may be a bit heavy the solidness of the lens is great outdoors."

"Love it....good lens...if you need to take same action shots of a game at night, you better have a tripod or better yet, opt for a much faster 75mm f1.8 lens....I got this lens for $100, not bad for the price, not like their premium lenses but not as expensive, on micro 4/3rds it's about a 300mm magnification!!!"

"Love it....good lens...Its fairly sharp and quick but I will probably upgrade to a faster zoom when I have the money....I got this lens for $100, not bad for the price, not like their premium lenses but not as expensive, on micro 4/3rds it's about a 300mm magnification!!!"

"Its fairly sharp and quick but I will probably upgrade to a faster zoom when I have the money."

"Sharp AF...Good lens...It's a stop slower but not an issue with the sensitivity of the latest sensors being produced....If this lens is a 2.8, it would get 5 stars for sure, F/4 seems a little dated especially at such a high price point."
