 Awesome! August 16, 2008

This is an awesome lens. I am able to get close without really being close to the object. The photo still looks crisp and clear. I use this lens all the time. I recommend this lens to anyone that is into photography.
Great! -This lens took action shots. June 29, 2008

My husband and I were recently on a trip along the Oregon coast and to view the Giant Redwoods of California. We bought this lens to go along with our Canon Rebel TSi 12 megapixel camera. Some have said they could not take action shots with it but I have great photos of sea gulls in flight and the waves as they crest, curl, and crash on the beach. You can see the feathers on the birds. I also took photos of the ocean crashing against rocks and they are so clear you can see the outer water droplets. We also bought a High-speed SD memory disk which could have helped with the photos. I would recommend this lens.
Works pretty well. June 20, 2008

I'm not too sure if this one is up to par as my buddy's 70-300mm. It does get the job done.
As expected June 13, 2008

Was satisfied with what was sent to me. It was as I expected. Works great and does a wonderful job zooming in on objects far away. A little shaky with far away shots but again, overall, very satisfied with purchase.
OK for beginners May 6, 2008

If you can master the quirks of this lens, when you move to a better one you will be MUCH better. It keeps you on your toes, if you don't have much light you will need a tripod and adjust your ISO. Its the first telephoto lens I (as well as many others) get with their camera. Is it terrible? No. Just know the limitations.
I try to keep it under 200mm, above that well it works alright but you can just crop what you need in an editing program and it will be much sharper.
I would probably say those of you who would know the limits of this lens would probably not buy it anyway. Its fine for the money, but really for outdoor use ONLY and sunny days as well. I've had it for almost a year and I am ready to upgrade, but I do feel by having a lens like this to start does get you to think about what you are doing with it.
