Great Value Telephoto Lense
On opening the item i was suprised to find it comes with it's very own well padded carry case, Barrel lens hood and rubber cover to replace the tripod mount when removed, The lens is quite heavy so a tripod is a must for prolonged use.

Good lens but poor tripod collar allows too much vibration
This lens has an excellent range for birds and wildlife, it appears well-built, and it focuses quickly on still subjects. It could be a real bargain for someone who doesn't use it on a tripod. The tripod collar's foot is very short, apparently not very strong, and there is only one point of support.

For the price, this lens is an absolute star. Light enough for hand-held use throughout the day (though it will build your muscles!) it focuses quickly and produces wonderful shots. Mine is used mainly for airshow photography, including magazine work, and the results have been wonderful.

Great lens
After reading and watching reviews, I decided to buy to replace an aging 70-300mm nikon lens as wanted the extra reach. There's a good array of feature considering it's in the entry category of lenses. 3 focus settings plus 3 Optical stabilising settings and the option for programming user settings.

Great for bird photographers
This is a very popular lens for our bird photographers, although it is not for the faint hearted and you will need to consider a tripod/monopod.
