The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Opinion:An amazing lens, which is preferable to the 70-200 f4 for better image quality and sharpness at the edges, with an additional 100mm focal length. I absolutely recommend it for both amateur and professional use. The minimum focusing distance is also excellent, which can be useful for excellent macros. Brightness isn't an issue if you're using it for what it's meant to be.
Opinion:Among the tele zooms available in sony home, I think it is the most versatile for those who have to make exclusively amateur use of it. It is the perfect choice for those who do not make a zoom tele a predominant use, combining general quality and handling. Given the weight, which is not precisely definable feather, and the extension throughout the excursion, it needs a tripod collar. It is not natively foreseen, and I have solved this, which I consider a serious handicap, by buying one of another brand. Excellent optics for general use, I preferred this zoom canvas, giving up without repentance the most famous 100-400 of sony house.
Opinion:Bought at a great price, it definitely exceeded expectations. I was undecided about buying due to non-exhilarating reviews found on the net. I used it as the main lens with FF for a safari in Africa, although it definitely wasn't ideal, and I was largely satisfied. The sharpness is already great at 300 mm at full aperture. The best of itself probably gives it between 100 and 200 mm. The blurring is soft and very pleasant. Closed is very compact and transportable. The build quality is great and I had no problems even in the middle of the African fuss.

Pros:Surprise.
Cons:Little.
Opinion:I have always snubbed this lens perhaps because of its reduced max brightness and perhaps because of negative experiences with brother 70-200 4.0. I was wrong. This 70-300 is in my opinion slightly higher than the 70-200 as resolution and image quality that I find discreetly distributed up to the edges of the image on the 24mpx. Beautiful colors and good blurred complete the picture that then becomes positive if you consider weight, clutter and ergonomics. On the A6400 it becomes a 105-450 and makes it stabilized. Price more centered than that of the 70-200 although as usual for Sony moved upwards. Quite recent purchase, so I reserve to integrate between a few hundred shots under various conditions.
Pros:-Excellent build quality-it has 4 selectors and 1 programmable key-very smooth and precise focusing-minimum focusing distance of 90 cm. -Excellent optical stabilizer-with diaphragms from F8 to F11 the lens is sharp to the edges
Cons:-Missing collar to put the lens directly on the tripod-when the sun drops the F/4.5-5.6 You start to make it feel, but the ISO tightness of the A7III comes in handy!
Opinion:I think at the moment this is the best Tele Zoom for Sony as a quality price ratio. For me it is essential to get at least 300, the 70 200 are too short in most uses. It is a very well built goal, which gives satisfaction in the use. With the A7III it handles well even without grip. It is very compact to be closed, while with the hood and extending it to 300 is a beautiful beast!
