What People Say

easy to zoom a moving object and fire, as well as easy to use as a handle to pick the assembly up from wherever it is lying. from Abt.com i purchased the sony 75-300mm telephoto lens from amazon and as soon as it arrived i attached the lens and began to use it. from Amazon.com according to a photo magazine, this is a cosmetically re-labelled konica minolta 75-300 (d) zoom telephoto, which is a lens that i own (it certainly looks exactly the same as the km 75-300 lens, but from Amazon.com sony is often criticized for its lack of professional lens, but this one is rock solid and produces excellent images at all ranges (18 mm to 200 mm). from Amazon.com although this fine lens is optically based on the famous contax carl zeiss 85mm f1.4, its digital performance is more reminiscent of a medium telephoto lens, than that of a fast portrait (short from Amazon.com it's not cutting edge technology, and won't hold up to the rigors of professional photojournalism, but it's small, lightweight, and give you a tremendous zoom range. from Amazon.com so the above image would be displayed about 50" wide or seven times magnification of that 5x7, a very high magnification. from Amazon.com I chose this lens over the 18-70mm usually rated with the Alpha 100 DSLR because it appeared to be more versatile, and I was right. from Abt.com I enlarge my better photos to 11X19 and have found the pictures to be exceptional. from Wolfcamera.com it covers the range of photography that i need, with the convenience of a single lens. from Wolfcamera.com
