User profile: Amateur
Cons: Sarpness / price Decent Macro Performance (but noa a true macro lens) Fast autofocus (comparing to kit lens)
Pros: Build quality is PLASTIC Rotating focus ring and filter Slow autofocus in comparison with faster L lenses
Summary: A very good "firslt" telephoto, it's got decent quality and focus speed for its price. Nevertheless, those Pros, familiar with the blazing fast autofocus in the 70-200mm L and their stunning quality, may found this a bad lens
