Best 70-200 on the market! Got a good deal on a great lens. eBay saved me a couple hundred compared to going to a camera store. The lens is pure professional. Image quality is outstanding. Pair it with my a7iii and the Sony remote which makes it a 70-300. Worth the money when you save on eBay!

Great lens and some free stuff too! this lens is universally praised by pretty much everyone. i like that the lens doesn’t physically get larger or smaller when zooming – everything is internal. the lens came with a lot of extras for the same price as i could have bought it elsewhere. some of the extras aren’t worth much but a 64GB memory card alone makes it a great deal. a lens hood is one of the extras, but the lens comes with one already. also comes with 3 filters which i have yet to use. the lens bag is too small for the lens but it doesn’t matter as the lens is packaged with a much better lens bag anyway. comes with some software but i suspect if you are buying this lens, you aren’t a beginner and already have a good program you use to edit your photos.

A lens that you get what you pay for with. If you can get this lens for around $2,000 then it is a fantastic deal and value for money. I pair this lens with a Sony a7R IV and a Sony a7 III and the bokeh is fantastic. Overall image quality is what one would expect for a lens this expensive. It focuses fast and silently. The buttons stay in their position and it feels great in the hand too with an easily removable tripod mount.

Amazing Lens Although this lens is expensive, it is the best lens I’ve ever used (I rented it first and hated to part with it). It’s sharp all the way through the zoom range and the f2.8 helps in low lit environments like dance competitions/exhibitions (which is what I originally used it for). My clients were very pleased with the pictures. Match this lens with an a6500 and you’ve got an amazing sports setup albeit the 1.5 app-c factor makes it so you have to be a little further back
