Excellent
I tested the most, this is probably sharpest 500mmF4 ever. Sharpness is %80 at F4, %95 at F4,5!!, %100 at F5 and feels like %105 at F5.6. Only negative point i can mention is the sony TCs. x2.0 is not supported AF with this lens, but i found a solution that i am using with Kenko Tc, it is working AF also with EA-LA3 adaptor..!

Sharper than I expected. Love IT
This lens is so sharp and the focus is extremely fast. Believe it or not, sharper than my older Leica lenses at the same focal length. Great lens for sports and wildlife.

WOW!! TACK SHARP!! BUY A GIMBAL!!
If I could give it 6 stars, I would. This is one of those rare cases that you get more than what you pay for. Sharp as heck wide open at f4. So for action and sports photography, this lens excels. You will get over the price when you pop your memory card into your computer and check out color, resolution, saturation etc. You won't believe they can make a lens this good. Highly recommended if you got the jack. Also bought the 300mm f 2.8 and resul... Show More

Very Fast Lens!
I just got this great lens with the 1.4x Sony converter attached to my Sony A77ii. The lens is a lightwieght champ comparing it to Sony 70-400mm f4-5.6 G ii Lens Which i have. Focusing is really fast with the 1.4x! Without the 1.4x is much faster. The lens is sharp from f4! Im shooting birds only and details for me is important, the lens didnt disappoint me at all! Im loving it Price is hight comparing it to the new Canon 500mm f4 lens, but can the canon give you shatp images at f4! Nope! :)

Unique lens
I have used this lens for about a month .I am still testing it.This is a very unique lens .The best image is at full open aperture . The image quality starts to drop at f8.The image still looks great even with a 2X converter lens at full open aperture at F8 at 50% crop .The image gets a little sharper at f10.The more I use this lens the more I like it.

Best Lens I've ever had
The package when it arrived, was a whole lot bigger than I expected.The lens contradicted my general assumption in many ways, such as the soft leather hood that goes for a lens cap, or the fact that the protective filter at the front end is part of the lens assembly itself.The sheer weight of the lens, and the amount of glass it contained surprised me. Then, as I attached my a77SLT camera to it and attempted to click a few shots - I got convinced... Show More
