Very impressive lens. I use it on a Sony Alpha A200 and the sharpness, even at 300mm, is excellent. Very well made and very smooth operation.

This is a great lens it's heavy but it feels really good quality and for less then ?100 is by far the best lens you will get for that money. The build quality is spot on too. I use the lens on a Nikon D40 and the focusing is so much smoother than the Nikon kit lenses I have and quicker too. If you have ?100 spare or are looking for something like this lens, BUY IT!! I promise you will love it.

Nice lens, can't argue value-wise nothing comes close for the cost, and the quality and feel of the lens is superb given its low cost, picture quality is good, easily on par with the kit lens, although i assume not up there with the primes. Overall very happy with it, and the extra range over a 55-200mm is what swung it for me.

Question: what is the main difference between this lens and the one up from it and would it make a good second lens for my Pentax K200D
Bristol Cameras Answer: Hi, the model up from this is the APO version. An APO lens has Apochromatic lens elements made from special low dispersion (SLD) glass which produces sharper images and helps to reduce colour aberrations. Either lens would be a good lens to have in addition to the standard zoom that came with the camera.
