5out of 5

Pros: Durable, Consistent Output, Strong Construction, Sharp Focus

Cons: Slow Focus

Best Uses: Special Effects, Sports/Action, Wildlife, General Use

Describe Yourself: Professional

After working with a cheeper zoom I was getting very frustrated with my images and with available zoom lenses for the Pentax 20D. I am very pleased with this lens! It is very sharp and now I can shoot with confidence my images are going to be of good quality. I also bought the sigma 2x converter and it works amazing too. Now I have a 100-600 quality lens. Nothing much wrong with it.

Pros: Durable, Powerful, Good Color Value, Attach Securely

Cons: Long recycle time

Best Uses: Studio, Night Time, Outdoors, Indoors, Low Light, General Use

Describe Yourself: Professional

I bought this product mainly on price and the company reputation and Photoflex did not let me down. Great price with a very good quality fit and finish. Nothing in this kit is of poor quality. Buy with confidence. The recycle time is a little lagging but it forces you to think about your shot rather than just rattling off a bunch. It is just a matter of getting used to. everything else is on the up side
