I bought this lens after a lot of thought and spent a lot of time looking around and found one on Amazon "used" and got one at a very good price which I couldn't ignore! The lens was as new and came with a UV filter. I am absolutely delighted with the lens and has exceeded my expectations.

I bought this lens mostly to photograph wildlife and I have taken some great shots with it in the short time I have had it. The lens is light weight and easy to carry around in the field for long periods of time without causing fatigue.
