Ok optics but great price point. I’ll be using at the beach to photograph surfers so salt air and sand WILL take their toll. Expect 1 season out of it. Much better than trashing a $2K lens for routine shotsRead full review...

Nice for the price
Image with 500 mm lens is good. Better to use digital zoom rather than doubler for sharp image. Camera vibration makes use of good tripod and remote shutter necessary. Supplied i/r remote shutter does not work on D3100 (not supported by camera)Read full review...

Great lens for the price.
I bought this lens to expand my photography hobby. I like the range of this lens and the weight is very easy to work with. It can be used easily without using a tripod. The manual focus takes a bit to get used to as it is VERY sensitive, so a slight adjustment makes a big difference. The zoom on this lens is amazing. I have gotten some wonderful shots using this lens and I would assume they will only get better with more practice.Read full review...
A solid lens that will produce good images without investing a ton of money!
It is a surprisingly good lens - especially given the price. It’s definitely sharp enough and is very contrasts. The images have good clarity. I’ve only shot a few images with it so far (a huge alligator) and I am satisfied with the results.Read full review...

Not for the serious photographer
It was a gift, the thought was sweet. As for the lens, I’d give it a C-, need a sturdy tripod, will be great for moon shots- since it’s Manual focus mode, Not good for wildlife, it takes time to focus in, Best to save $100. to go towards the $2500. Plus lens. The kit was complete, arrived in a timely - good condition.
I would not recommend for the Serious photographer. Read full review...

Can't wait to try it in the outside environment.
At first look I thought the converter wouldn't attach to this telephoto lens.As I looked a little closer I realized it did work.So far I'm happy with it.

Glass seems to have a spot in top left of frame. Unable to remove. Believe to be on inside of glass.
Interesting lens for occasional use. Disappointed with spot in glass but area allows for removal with cropping.

I LOVE THIS
I haven’t stopped shooting with this since it delivered. The seated scope helps to stable the photo and it comes out crisp and clear. Very happy with this purchase.
