Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The sony 70-350mm has a 105-525mm equivalent focal range. Will work very nicely for nature and wildlife photography. Perfect for birding as it’s lightweight.

Autofocus is fast and accurate. Image stabilization is very effective. Continuous shooting on zoom with auto focus and stabilization is really something to catch that precise moment.

Great lens, with fantastic reach! It is worth the shekels! Wish it wasn't so pricey, but good quality comes with the price tag. This lens fully meet my expectations and is a joy to use.

Small size is crucial for travelers, including fairly light weight and a compact size that can fit in a small half-day pack. Delivers an impressive amount of zoom for its size and weight. I enjoy taking pictures without gear that's heavy make look lik... Read More

Quality

Great lens for apsc camera, very sharp -much better image quality vs 55-210

Love this lens light and compact with an excellent picture quality.

Cropping exacerbates issues of sharpness and high iso from the slow aperture.

I was never happy with the image quality with my sony 55–210 mm (sel55210) - perhaps i had a bad copy.

Price

I couldn't really afford this, but i had to have it.

Shipping

Then i wanted to mention that amazon shipped the lens in the retail box.

Packaging/appearance

Anyone could have tampered with it or stolen it out of the box as it was not sealed up.

Competitiveness

This lens fills a gap in the sony aps-c lens line up, and it does so more than competently.
