Compact and lightweight 4x telephoto zoom lens ideal for shooting sports, portraits, and wildlife. The newly developed Micro makes auto focusing quicker and quieter. The improved zoom mechanism also makes zooming smoother. The front part of the zoom ring now sports a silver ring for a luxury touch.

I will say this is a decent budget lens for 70-300 zoom. HOWEVER if you're expecting great photos you'll more then likely be disappointed. This lens does what it says it will do. Provide you 70-300mm zoom but if you don't have great lighting you'll be really disappointed in your image quality. Plus you'll lose a lot of detail at 300mm. I'd say just pay more and buy the 55-250mm lens with is. BUY THIS AS A LAST RESORT!
What's great about it: Price, Ease of use
What's not so great: Image Quality and Durability
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
