I have had this lens for a few days now. So far I am loving it. I have posted a full review on my blog with a bunch of sample images with 100% crops of Australian Wildlife.

If you are into nature and wildlife photography, you probably need an ultra-telephoto lens to photograph Singapore's smooth-coated otters or common plantain squirrels from afar without disturbing these animals.
