Good Lens. Very Heavy, Had to find a steady tripod to mount it, Moon photo's come out clear and sharp with this lens.You can hook up a 2x converter with this. Can you imagine 2600mm? WOW !!


3 out of 5 stars A realistic review   August 25, 2008

If considering this lense, it is important to be realistic. You can't by a high quality telephoto lense of this size for such a low price. For a good lense of this size a couple of zeroes would need to be added to the price. You will also a need substantial tripod and that will be fairly expensive. You will not be able to get by with the 30 dollar ones, so don't fool yourself. Everything on this lense is manuel. If you are using it on a digital camera as I have on a Canon XTi, none of your automatic features will work. You will have to manuelly zoom, manually focus, and you cannot set the apature at all. The longer you extend the lense the more light will be need, of course, and the poorer the quality. The 2X converter that comes with the package is a nice gesture, but it is really obsolete because the picture quality will be so bad that it is not worth using. br /Even with all this in mind, the picture quality is my biggest concern. You will be able to zoom in from a far distrance, but picures will be full of noise and muted colors. I can easily tell if pictures have been taken by this lense as opposed to others. br /Having said all this, I am reasonably happy with the lense because I did not expect perfection at such a low price. The simple fact is, I don't have thousands of dollars to spend on a lense and I do believe the lense is worth the money that it cost.


5 out of 5 stars Big lens, Big zoom.   October 3, 2006

There are many positive features about this lens and there are a few negative this too. I have used this lens on Canon and Nikon cameras, it can be adapted to any mount with the correct t-adapter. br / br /-This lens produces very sharp pictures only if you have your camera on a tripod. With all lenses, the more zoom, the less area of view. Do not think you will be holding this lens in your hands shooting. br /-This lens needs light. It works great outdoors. I have taken many shots of birds, houses, trees, ect) br / br /Overall, it is the only lens under $600 that can zoom as far as it can. You just need to understand want it can and cannot do. I am happy with it. br /
