 What A Bargain! June 24, 2008

Prequel: I am coming from a strict Nikon background and due to having my $4000 kit(D80, 3 VR, 3 2.8 pro lenses, etc) stolen out of my car, am starting all over again. That being said, I don't have $4000 to plop down at once, so I decided to get an "entry to mid-level" system and after many internal battles, decided to try something different and go with the Alpha system. My thoughts were if things didn't work out with this setup, I haven't spent that much and could use it for a carry-around camera. So far I see absolutely NO reason to go back to Nikon. Yes, this system is THAT good.
Sony 75-200mm f/4.5-5.6 Lens: Wow. I sincerely cannot BELIEVE this lens is only $229! As many reviews point out, this lens has virtually ZERO distortion from 75mm all the way up to 300mm and purple fringing(CA) is contained nicely. Needless to say, for a lens at this price point to preform this well is unheard of. This lens combined with the super quick AF of the a200 is a perfect marriage. I compared this to the super sharp Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VR, and although the Nikon is a bit sharper and performs better in low light, the IQ difference is surprisingly small. I can highly recommend this lens and the Sony Alpha system as a whole!
 Average lens for an average price, Good as a starter lens June 19, 2008

Nice starter lens to get long ranges but does not perform well in lower light, as it was not designed to. I got this with the ALpha 200 kit for an extra $100 and it was worth that for sure, but if you are spending $200 or more, I would go with a walkaround lens 28mm to 300mm, you'll use it more and can usually find something decent for around $300.
If you are getting as an add on and are on a budget, this is a great lens and will fit lots of situations.
Terrific lens June 11, 2008

I have the identical Konica Minolta version of this lens. It is a very nice lens and since it is fairly small and light and not too expensive, perfect for travel if you need a tele zoom. Uses common less expensive 55mm filter size.

This lens is way bigger than I thought is was going to be but, it is everything I was hoping it would be. Great zooming capabilities, fantastic picture quality. In one word, WOW. Sony has never let me down, I will continue to buy their products, they're worth every penny you spend for them. The camera I bought this lens for (Alpha 350 ) is teriffic also. Put the two together and I've got a great setup. Through Amazon, I got the lens quickly, packed well, and it didn't cost me an arm and a leg.Sigma 70-300mm F/4-5.6 DG Macro Telephoto Lens for Minolta and Sony SLR CamerasSony Alpha DSLRA350K 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization DT 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens
