What People Say
summary: to be fair, this is my first zoom lens for my first dslr so i have nothing else to compare it too.
from Thenerds.net
it is not a pro grade lens, nor is it priced that way, so don't expect extreme build quality .
from Thenerds.net
summary: i decided to purchase this lens because pentax has the $50.00 rebate and i wanted to photograph my son playing baseball .
from Thenerds.net
i have noticed that my finger nearest the focusing ring will sometimes ride on it during fast action shots , but this is operator error.
from Circuitcity.com
i have used it indoors to photograph basketball games[boosted to 1600 asa] and outdoors for a variety of things; so far the photos have been excellant.
from Bhphotovideo.com
for the quality and performance, it is a steal.

maybe not as sharp as some 'pro' lenses, but much better than you'd expect from a consumer quality lens.
from Circuitcity.com
my only complaint is that the lens is a little 'slow ' for somesituations.
