So far I've had limited opportunities to use the lens. From the few photos I've taken with it I'm very impressed with the sharpness and quality. Very happy with my decision to purchase this lens.

Sharp and versatile telephoto lens. I decided to replace my 70-200 lens to get the greater reach and plan o get the 1.4 teleconverter to extend the reach even further. I would definitely recommend this lens.

I bought this lens for an upcoming trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton later this year. I wanted to make sure I was able to get some nice wildlife photos. I am using it with a Nikon Z7 and have been testing on bears and coyotes in the Great Smoky Mountains. I was able to get great photos from a distance and look forward to using it on my trip.
