These are an old model now but still seems to work well. Nice and clean.

Good, but not as good as the Canon

I have used two versions of this lens, one on a Pentax K7 (I bought this new) and the other on a Canon 7D (this was used).
The build quality is not as precise as either manufacturers lenses, the one used with the Pentax developed a sticky Macro switch. It would be very difficult to switch over to normal from macro, to the point I never use it for macro. Eventually I bought a Pentax 200mm lens.
Both lenses are optically good and you are being picky if you see a difference, but they are there, especially around the edges at max focal length.
As for value, you can’t knock it, sure the build quality is not the best and it feels lose and clunky in the hand, but in terms of optics you can’t beat it on price
It is not a waste of money if you buy one!

Good deal, good quality item.

Prompt dispatch and safe delivery. The only problem was the fit to my camera. The fitments are very similar from one model to the next, and a photo of the back of the lens is always useful. The lens was in very good condition, clean and no marks on the glass surfaces. The various actions were all smoothly operating. Read full review

I love this lens!

I can’t believe the images I can capture on this lens! It’s the cheapest 2nd hand lens I’ve ever bought and it’s one of the best most versatile lenses I own. Fantastic value for money, I’ve attached 3 images I’ve take with this lens on my Sony A57 as proof of what this lens can do...Read full review

Excellent value for money

Just what I needed to get in closer, very easy to use straight away for beginners like myself but I’m looking forward to learning to use it to its full potential
