Received the lens today and only took a few shots but I like what I see. I will update this review after using it for a while. Unfortunately, the price and long focal length will attract a lot of people who don't know how to use it because they don't understand the basics of photography. If you can't clearly define reciprocity in terms of photography, don't know the exposure triangle, don't understand the math, etc., then you probably won't like this lens. This is not a criticism of the lens. I'm looking forward to using this lens and my first impression is that the image quality will be good and the small size and lighter weight will be a boon for experienced photographers like me. Took the lens out for a while yesterday and am very happy with the result. There is definitely a learning curve and I still think this lens is not for everyone. However, if you are familiar with, or want to learn, the technical aspects of photography, this lens is an inexpensive way to acquire a long telephoto lens that did not exist prior to the introduction of this new lens.
