Pros: Cost-effective and robust

Cons: Excessive softness at large openings

Opinion: I'm an amateur. Bought used at ridiculous price. I've used it on Pentax APSC camera. Sharpness from F11 / F13, after 160mm it loses further, especially at infinity. It has macro functionality that reduces the minimum focusing distance to 1.1 meters. Sensitive to flare and backlight. Chromatic aberazations present but not excessive. Good colour rendering and contrast. For the ridiculous price at which I bought it I am satisfied. Because once the limits are known, it can be used with good results. However I wouldn't recommend it.

Pros: Construction 'of the past', brightness, blurred

Cons: Sharpness not always satisfactory

Opinion: I have it with minolta A mount and I use it on sony a290 with good satisfaction, solid, all in metal, fluid bezel, quality lenses a real lens made in japan as they do not make it anymore if not at exorbitant prices while at the time it was normal to expect at least such a level. Of course the yield is designed for analog, and this is its beauty, on the CCD sensor of my a290 gives' spectacular results, obtainable only with analog years 80/90 ... if you look for the sharpness taglente as clown accrocchi mirrorless today and' better to let it go .... vote 8

Pros: price, weight

Cons: softness, not stabilized, front lens rotates with focus

Opinion: Taken for 40 € is a lens that I will keep to make some portraits for the colors that I do not mind. The AF works through a reflex engine, I used it manually on a nikon d5200, softness is the biggest problem as far as I'm concerned, under the f8 it is really so soft and becomes decently sharp from f8 onwards, f11 for landscapes. The front lens spins while focusing so it is a problem for using circular filters such as a polarizing filter for example. The build quality is average, the attachment is made of metal, the zoom ring has a great grip, the rest is made of plastic. For the rest nothing to say, it remains a 40 € lens that does its job at a ridiculous price. Edit: tested on FF d610, autofocus working through the engine of the machine, slow but does its job is good for portraits and slow subjects, in Af-c begins to struggle having to follow a subject. at 70 mm sharp at TA, from 100 onwards you have to start closing the diaphragm at f8. As mentioned above I continue to like for portraits and landscapes for color rendering, for other purposes there are other lenses.

Pros: Weight, speed, construction, price performance ratio

Cons: Not stabilized, max

Opinion: Taken in a used car market 3years ago at rn40 euros and often used for outdoor photography during agility races, always sincere and focused in conjunction with my Nikon D7100, the small weight I often enticed to carry it on the bag if you want a 70 210 and you can not afford an expensive lens this is definitely better than the 70 300 Nikon from 100 new euro which has serious problems at almost all focuses and the long ones you can not use (with my car it makes inguardable photos) at that price comes out a Nikon filter ......
