Quite the Lens!!!!
Okay so I originally purchased this lens for my Nephews football games. It was a close race between the Sony 200-600. Although the Sony is immaculate. I couldn’t justify the price right now. Especially, after hours of reviews and videos.Pros:* MACRO! Wow I’m blown away of how this huge lens can focus on something quite close in the 150mm slot. See pics of bee.* Not really that heavy. I mean it is, but it feels balanced in the hands if that makes sense. I own a Sony A7iii for reference.* Arca Swiss compatible mount.* Completely removable mount ring.* Very quick auto-focus* Very Sharp* Lots of switches for Vibration Control, Auto Focus, Lock, etc.* Made of durable plastic/metal elements.* Large well-made lens Hood with rubber at the very edge.Cons:* Not able to be used with a teleconverter.* External Zoom (Not really a deal breaker for me, but know it can be for some)Overall, I really love this lens. I didn’t see many reviews here for this one specifically. The things that come with it aren’t top notch quality but will get the job done. I can’t wait to use this lens more. I should also mention that this came in a VERY well packaged shipment. Completely padded and secure.Highly RECOMMEND this seller and this Lens!!! Thank you. You made this photographer very happy.XOXO, KISS STUDIOS, NC.

Good optical quality, but I’d have preferred to avoid the “bloatware” extras.
This is a reasonably priced, pretty good quality lens, that won’t disappoint. For about the same price offered by other vendors, you also get a padded backpack, lens cleaner (some Q-tips) and other useless stuff.I’d have preferred a lower price and no useless extras.

Terrific telephoto
I have really enjoyed this lens so far, just learning how to use it properly. It is heavy, I purchased a higher quality tripod and gimbal that can support its weight more safely. Also purchased the separate carry bag for safe travel.
