Great lens! [Posted on 2006-07-13]
It is a perfect companion to the 18-200mm Tamron I use, and is faster at the 200mm mark.
I enjoy wildlife and outdoor photography. The crop factor gives me the equivalent of a 750mm zoom, and the eight foot minimum focusing distance lets me take some great shots of wild flowers and such.
From all I coud find when I researched the lens, to get a noticeably better lens you had to pay out several times as much money.
The only drawback to the lens is that, at least in the Minolta mount, demand exceeds supply and there is waiting list for the lens.
It is well worth waiting for, however. :)
I have a number of shots taken with this lens on a Minolta 7D.[...]
Excellent Price ratio [Posted on 2007-01-11]
Tamron make a reality len that cheap for 500mm and give you a very good result. I really like it.
This is a great lens [Posted on 2007-09-04]
I have now used this lens in several different places including the Zoo. While it is a little hard to lug around, it produces very sharp images at all ranges. If I had my wishes it would be a little faster. I now must purchase a better tripod system to go with the lens.

I have had this lens for a few months.
The lens is great for birding and other nature shots.
I have been very pleased with this lens.
To get a better lens means spending quite a bit more cash.
It is light and I use a shoulder rig in a canoe for a lot of my work.
On the downside it takes complete sunshine to get good, sharp shots.
The color and the contrast are a little weak , but can be easily "fixed " in photoshop.
For the money this lens is a no brainer.
Just look at the pics. !
Now for an L lens !!!
