Reviews

Just what my camera needed.5.0/5

Just what my camera needed. Fast focusing. Crystal clear. Makes a perfect "Portrait Lens" due to the high aperture. I use it on my Sony A68 and love the results.

Love It5.0/5

Love It Great pictures, pretty easy to focus and a great price. The only thing to keep in mind is that you have to get really close to what you are taking a picture of which is fine if it is a flower or inanimate object but may be difficult with insects or animals. Very good lens for the price though I bought mine used for under $100 but even at the new price I would buy it again.

perfect for closeups5.0/5

perfect for closeups I wish I had gotten this sooner. I would have gotten much more use out of my camera. It was good to wait because I got a used one at a lower price. It was as good as getting a new lens. Now I am out taking pictures of everything. Maybe I will get another telephoto lens. I have one, but want to be able to take pictures of subjects further away.
