Decent for the price, but don't fool yourself
By R. Tammany
Considering how much this lens costs, you really can't knock it that much for trying to do something that only $7,000 lenses can do.The problem is it falls so far short in quality from those $7,000 lenses that it's even below the image quality of most consumer 70-300 zoom lenses.This lens is manual focus, and fixed aperture. There are no aperture blades or any sort of electronics in this lens.Due to the very small aperture even at 420mm, the viewfinder will be quite dark in anything but daylight. Out at 800mm it is dark even in daylight which will make it very difficult to focus manually.I bought this lens to try some tripod shots using my camera's Live View function where you can focus by looking at the LCD screen.I've only taken a few pictures with it and they have confirmed the quality issues, but then I used it to take a shot of the moon which is very far away even on a 300mm lens. The shots of the moon with this lens come out softer but much larger and there is a lot more detail to be had with a little post processing than with an upsampled 300mm shot from a $1000 lens.So if your subject is really far away, stationary and you have a tripod and live view, you will probably get a better result with this lens than using a lens ending at 200mm-300mm. When you take a 300mm lens and put a 2x TC on it, you will get a better result, but only slightly with a consumer lens which is in most people's budget. (sub $500)I have some sample shots here: http://russell.exphose.com/p347974185/and the moon shots here: http://russell.exphose.com/p44102115/Thanks!

Cheap
By Hugo Calendar
This is a cheap item, and you get what you pay for. Adjusting the magnification and focus is more cumbersome than on modern lenses, and what you get is dark and grainy. Forget about using this without a tripod and remote trigger. Even with the tripod, I get better pictures using a reasonably priced lens with half the magnification.
