For the avid photographer, the SONY 75-300mm Telephoto lens is priced well and will provide exceptional performance. Once you attach the lens you will discover when in maximum telephoto mode, the lens is quite long.
I am very happy with it.

There is no other place I was able to buy this lens for this price. The lens was never ushed and still in the box. It works very well. I enjoy it very much.

Great lens for the price

This is not the best 70-300mm lens you can buy but for the price you can't beat it.

What I like.
- Size
- Build quality
- Zoom range (with the 1.5x crop factor with AF-S sensors (Anything but the A850 or A900) it is a 112.5-450mm 35mm equivalent
- Little lens creep


What I am not crazy about
- Plastic not metal
- a little slow at times with f/5.6 (but that is common for this class, my Nikons have the same issue)
- Wish it had a zoom lock like the new Nikon VRII 18-200mm

Great lens at good price

I tested this lens with 70-300mm beercan, sigma 75-200mm 2.8/3.5, Sony got very fast AF against all of them, you need this in sport mode. For pictures quality i'm very impress on how sharp it is, I read lot of reviewer and they complaint soft side, not sharp at 300mm and so forth....but I don't know about that, I haven't got any problem at all. Where the beer can got good reputation for been sharpness it not true, AF on beer can is slow..IQ is the same as Sony no difference.
