The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Sharpness, bright, price on used (and also on the new actually), macro function.
Cons:Weight not indifferent, not stabilized.
Opinion:Taken 3d days ago, done some testing on the field and. what to say: for the price on the used is excellent. Bright at all openings, crisp and excellent color rendering. The focus is a little ballerina sometimes (I use it on Sony a7rii with Sigma adapter for Canon) but using it in manual the thing does not bother me that much. The lack of stabilization and weight make it a piece to be used almost exclusively on tripod (at least for me that with the adapter the internal stabilization of Sony is disabled). It has its years, but all in all for those who do not want to spend a fortune on the Canon or Nikon counterparts and want excellent results, it is an alternative to take into account. Do I recommend it? I'd say so.
Opinion:Excuse me I read in some opinion this phrase referring to this lens "... seniority of the project." Frankly I do not understand, the geometric optics have not been modified by the theory of relativity, and, more or less, it is from the time of Baruch Spinoza that lenses are made in the same way. Would anyone say that the Carl Zeiss Biogon project is outdated? No, because, like the ZEISS Biogon T-28mm f/2.8 ZM Lens Mount Leica M, f/2.8, it costs over 1,000 euros. I." given the seniority of the project" I would like to have it in my kit.
Pros:Bright, sharp at full aperture, well built, autofocus, price
Cons:It's not WR
Opinion:I Think it's the only 70-200 F2,8 non-Pentax compatible with the K1. It is an old model, superseded by the new stabilized and motorized version, but it is only built for Nikon and Canon and at twice the price. In spite of someone's opinion, the autofocus is very good even if it does not have the ultrasonic system, it hooks the subjects even with very poor light and it does it quickly without uncertainties, both with the K70 and the K1. The Construction is unexceptionable, the whole is made of metal and hard plastics and I must say that it is not a big problem the size and weight, after you got used to it. So far I have done only a few test shots but I have to say that the results are beyond my most rosy expectation, especially at f 2.8 and at 200mm, I have to say thanks especially to the stabilised sensors of the Pentax that have allowed me to shoot below the 1/60 second to Free hand. I bought it from Amazon, not so much for the convenience, but because it starts to be unavailable from other retailers, so my advice is to buy it without hesitation if you find it.

Pros:Used Price, sharpness, f/2.8 fixed on all focal lengths
Cons:Slow AF, weight
Opinion:Amazing performance Lens like optical quality, maybe a little less like AF which is a bit slow and inaccurate in low light conditions. Taken used including lens hood for €420, I mainly use it for portraits paired with the Tamron 45mm f/1.8. Crisp and wide open and blurred by scream. From the best of se between F/4 and F/8. I recommend it to those who like me is fond of portraits and extreme blurred, for those who take care of sports photos do not recommend it when the AF is not the fastest and should adequately to the G2 version more updated.
Opinion:It is not a monster of lightness but compared to the Pentax 70-200 it is more manageable. With this lens I immediately found the Feeling. Sharp and precise is not lightning but in my opinion for what it costs them all worth. I have used it with Pentax K-1 with which it behaves very well, it also works perfectly well with the multiplier ring 1, 4x. I also love the colors and the blur of this lens.
