 "Amazing!" 2010-07-13
By Bobby Jones
after getting a sony alpha a330 camera with the basic 18-55mm lens, i decided to upgrade and got myself this telephoto lens. i saw it on amazon and it had really good reviews and was pretty cheap so i got it. after taking it out and using out doors i can say this is one really good lens. it has auto focus built into it and it reaches out really far. its built very solid and looks really nice. but like all sony lens when you focus it, the lens is kinda loud but that's no biggy.

The lens makes a great addition to my camera set up. The auto-focus feature is rather impressive for the zoom it really helps this amateur take great pictures.

It's a nice compliment to the 18mm-70mm lens that came with the camera. I really enjoy being able to get close ups on the action shots in the sporting events that I attend.

What a fun lens this is, and what wonderful new photos I can now take with my Sony A700! I have enjoyed my photography hobby since 1950 and have used all sorts of different camera formats and brands as well as dozens of lenses of all kinds. I have entered and won contests, and I have done exhibitions, so I am not completely an amateur in photography. I can say that this lens lives up to everything it claims it can do. The images are clear and in focus, even in the corners at full zoom. It works well in low light, and it is fast enough that I rarely need to use a tripod. It is just as easy to operate as any of the zoom lenses of my 35 mm film cameras. Great product. I'm going to have quite a bit of fun with this.
